Today's Records and Climate

There is a Marginal Risk for strong to severe thunderstorms on Friday and Saturday as a strong cold front moves through the region.

With how dry it has been, it might seem silly to talk about Excessive Rainfall Outlooks. Nonetheless, there is some potential that we could see some areas pick up a decent amount of rainfall all at once on Friday and Saturday that could bring some isolated Flash Flooding concerns at times.

Rainfall chances return to the area this weekend. This shows the probability of the area getting at least one inch of rainfall through Saturday night.

Expect another mild night, with slight rain chances north of Interstate 30.

Rain chances will return across the region tomorrow, with the best chances during the afternoon hours.

Here are today's temperature and precipitation averages, along with records for selected sites across the Four-State area.
