Sunny This Afternoon, Continued Mild

Some low clouds have developed across the Panhandles this morning as low-level moisture has increased in response to the low-level jet. A potent shortwave trough is passing to the north in Colorado this morning, and once it pulls away this afternoon, slightly drier air will begin to filter back into the area. It does appear that clouds will hang around through 11 a.m., but skies should be mostly sunny this afternoon. Temperatures will warm above average again with downsloping winds compensating for cooler temperatures as compared to yesterday at 700 mb. The end result should be highs topping out near 69. Winds will be strong again today with gusts over 25 mph. There should be enough dry air in place tonight to prevent fog formation. However, clear skies and and relatively light winds will allow temperatures to drop quickly once the sun sets. Lows tomorrow morning will be near 32.
