A COOL START AREAWIDE, BUT NOT FAR FROM SEASONAL READINGS WITH A
RANGE OF 40S FOR MOST AND STILL SOME CHILLY UPPER 30S ACROSS OUR
NORTHERN FRINGE. PATCHY FOG WILL BE SPREADING IN WITH THE WARMER
SOUTHERLY FLOW, BUT SKIES SHOULD IMPROVE FOR THE AFTERNOON WITH A
RANGE OF 60S LIKEWISE NORMAL FAIR FOR MID DECEMBER. A WEAK WARM
FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT INLAND, BUT HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE
BUILDING TO OUR NORTH. THE WINDS WILL SPIN THE DIAL IN FAVOR OF
THE BACKDOOR PUSH OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY.
ONCE AGAIN SOME PATCHY FOG AND DEVELOPING SHOWERS WILL BE LIFTING
IN OVER THE WEAK BACK DOOR COOL FRONT WITH SOME EVENTUAL
THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE WITH THE DAY'S PEAK OF HEATING. AMOUNTS
WILL REMAIN FAIRLY LIGHT WITH TRACE AMOUNT NORTH TO A QUARTER OF
PERHAPS HALF INCH POSSIBLE ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-20. THE SHOWER
ACTIVITY WILL BE QUICKLY DISPERSING OVERNIGHT SATURDAY INTO EARLY
SUNDAY, AS THE NE WINDS ARE GREATLY FORTIFIED WITH THE MUCH
ADVERTISED ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE SETTLING DOWN THE MS RIVER
VALLEY.
AS IT IS NOW, A WIDE RANGE OF TEMPS WILL BE FOUND ON SATURDAY
MORNING WITH A FEW UPPER 30S NORTH TO MID 50S FAR SOUTH FOR LOWS.
OUR HIGHS WILL BE CHILLY MID TO UPPER 50S ACROSS OUR NORTH, BUT
STILL A WIDE RANGE OF 60S AND A FEW LOW 70S IN OUR DEEP SOUTH.
WINDS WILL VARY, BUT BE MOSTLY EASTERLY, AND THEN BACKING TO GUSTY
NE AS THE COLD AIR ADVECTION POURS DOWN WITH ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE
SPILLING TOWARD THE COAST OVERNIGHT. OURS LOWS ON SUNDAY WILL BE
LIGHTLY FREEZING ALREADY IN OUR NORTH WITH STILL MILDER LOW TO MID
40S SOUTH OF I-20. AND THIS IS WHERE HIGHS WILL MORE OR LESS STALL.
A RANGE OF MID 30S NORTH TO MOSTLY 40S AND STILL A FEW LOW 50S IN
DEEP EAST TEXAS AND TOLEDO BEND COUNTRY BY LUNCH, BUT THE NE
WINDS WILL SEE FALLING TEMPS DURING THE AFTERNOON.
WE WILL CLEAR THE CLOUDS FINALLY AND TAKE US DOWN TO A SOLID
FREEZE WITH UPPER TEENS NORTH AND LOW TO MID 20S ELSEWHERE AS THE
1045MB HIGH PRESSURE TAKES HOLD ON OUR FOUR-STATE AREA. THE
FORECAST WILL REMAIN DRY INTO THE NEW WEEK WITH A CHILLY RANGE OF
40S FOR MOST OF US ON MONDAY. THE BIG CHILL WILL QUICKLY RELENT
AND WE'LL WARM CLOSE TO 10 DEGREES BY TUESDAY MORNING, BUT STILL
BELOW AVERAGE. OUR WINDS WILL BEGIN SHIFT BACK TO SE OVERNIGHT
MONDAY, AND THEN PICK UP A BIT AND PERSIST WITH A GOOD WARMING
TREND BACK TO ABOVE AVERAGE FOR MID TO LATE WEEK. THEN ANOTHER
SLIGHT CHANCE TO GET WET AHEAD OF NEXT WEEKEND. /24/
