Some Clouds, Light Rain Possible Overnight

The frontal passage on Friday made for a great weekend with pleasant afternoons and cool mornings. That will change quickly this week as a series of storm systems are poised to affect the region. The first system this week will deepen across the Plains states today, and the associated cold front will move slowly eastward. A shield of rain with embedded thunderstorms can be found in advance of the front across mainly Texas and Arkansas. We'll remain dry as this swath of precipitation will stays to our west today, but cloud cover associated with the storm system will allow for partly cloudy skies today. These clouds will keep afternoon highs around 68 this afternoon. Clouds will thicken and lower tonight as better dynamics and isentropic lift impact the area, and as a result a few light showers will be possible after 4 a.m. Lows tomorrow morning will be near 55.
