TODAY AND TONIGHT...
NEAR TERM GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW A COLD FRONT PUSHING ACROSS OUR
FORECAST AREA TODAY. THIS FRONT WILL HELP BRING IN RAIN CHANCES
LATER THIS MORNING AND INTO THE EVENING AS IT SWEEPS FROM THE
NORTHWEST TO THE SOUTHEAST. A FEW STRONG ISOLATED STORMS CANNOT BE
RULED OUT. AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE NORTH WILL PEAK IN THE MID TO
UPPER 50S. ELSEWHERE, AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-20 WILL SEE HIGHS
IN THE LOW TO MID 60S F. SHOWERS AND ISOLATED T-STORMS WILL CONTINUE
LATER TONIGHT AS THE FRONT CONTINUES TO PUSH TO THE SOUTHEAST,
CLEARING THE PINE BELT PREDAWN WEDNESDAY MORNING. OVERNIGHT LOWS
WILL DIP INTO THE LOW TO MID 30S F AREAWIDE. /CR/
WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY...
COOLER AND QUIET CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS OUR AREA HEADING
INTO WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS THE COLD FRONT EXITS OUR CWA.
OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL DIP INTO THE 20S F FOR BOTH DAYS WITH HIGHS
PEAKING IN THE 40S F. WE WILL START TO SEE A WARMING TREND START TO
GET GOING ON FRIDAY WITH TEMPERATURES REACHING THE 60S F AREAWIDE.
WITH LOW RAIN CHANCES AND TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S F DURING THE DAY
AND UPPER 30S TO 40S F DURING THE NIGHT, THIS FIRST FULL WEEKEND OF
FEBRUARY LOOKS TO BE PLEASANT. LOOKING AHEAD INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK,
FUTURE GUIDANCE IS STARTING TO SHOW LOW RAIN CHANCES (10% POPS)
GENERALLY ACROSS NORTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF OUR FORECAST AREA.
OUTSIDE OF THAT, DAYTIME HIGHS FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK ARE FORECASTED TO
PEAK IN THE UPPER 60S F TO LOW 70S F UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. /CR/

VFR CONDITIONS PREVAIL ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA THIS EVENING, BUT

ACROSS THE AREA DURING MAINLY THE DAYTIME AND EARLY EVENING HOURS
TUESDAY AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES ACROSS THE REGION. CEILINGS WILL
FALL TO MVFR AND IFR ALONG THE FRONT, BEGINNING AROUND GLH AND GWO

EVENING. VISIBILITY REDUCTIONS TO MVFR ARE ALSO EXPECTED IN
