Happy Monday everyone! It has been a beautiful, sunny and warm day across the South Plains with highs sitting in the low 80’s. Temperatures will continue to climb into the low 90’s tomorrow with more sunshine on tap. However, beginning on Wednesday temperatures will begin to drop and wind speeds will increase dramatically. Starting Wednesday midday and continuing into Thursday, winds will
reach into the 40-60 MPH range which means blowing dust is expected and fire weather danger will be high. Please avoid burning of any kind and make sure to dispose of cigarettes properly.

The temperature decline will continue throughout the work week with highs dropping into the upper 60’s on Thursday and then the low 60’s on Saturday. We will also be watching for our next chance for showers and thunderstorms beginning Friday evening and continuing through Saturday morning. Some of these storms could be severe so make sure to stay weather aware!
