Mid-June Outlook

An unsettled weather pattern will continue into the weekend, with daily chances for showers and thunderstorms. A few storms may be strong to severe each day and bring locally heavy rainfall.

Daily rain and storm chances will continue into early next week along with near-normal temperatures.

The Southern High Plains will be pinched between an upper ridge of a blocking pattern next week. As a result we'll see a heating & drying trend with this pattern change. Cannot completely rule out any rain should the ridge break down in places so will have to take it day by day.

Seasonable temperatures will be hot and above average, beginning on Monday. Near-record warm low temperatures are also possible early to middle of next week.

The latest CPC outlook 8-14 days for temperatures and rainfall out has our area leaning 40-50% chances warmer and a 30-40% chance leaning wetter than average going into mid-June.
