Rain On The Way

A frontal boundary over the panhandle will play a role in our weekend weather. It’s stationary now but it makes a move to the north on Saturday.

Occasional Showers Then Turning Colder

Cold air is coming back!

Summer-like heat all across the region today. Our record high 89 degrees makes this the hottest day so far this year. It’s a one day event so don’t go putting away the cold weather gear just yet.
