Watching the Skies

Hey folks, I know I haven’t been up on the emailing as much the last week or so, been just a tad busy during my off hours though. Here is a weather outlook for the next few days…

Friday will be just as hot as Thursday, with high temps just over 100 degrees. Dew points will be about the same as well, sitting around 60 to 65 degrees. This creates heat index values around 105F, just shy of heat advisory criteria. Air pollution watch level Orange is issued for Friday, just like every other day this week. Skies will be clear and winds from the south at 5-10mph. Nothing too special for Friday, other than very bright clear skies and hot.

Saturday will be marginally cooler than Friday, with high temps around 100 and heat index values around 105. Mostly clear skies, air pollution watch level orange, and southwest winds 10 to 15mph. If your spending any amount of time outside Saturday, remember the sunblock and water. No rain is forecast so aside from the heat, Saturday will be an excellent outdoor day.

A cold front is expected to push through the area either Sunday or Monday. Computer models are having a hard time pinpointing the time when it will actually move through, but it will happen. At this time, rain chances can occur around Frisco anytime from maybe Sunday midday through Monday night. There is not alot of confidence in the timing of this however, so this is subject to change. Rain chances are only at 20% at this time and no severe weather is anticipated. Temperatures on Monday will be cooler due to this front, with high temps only expected to reach 90 degrees. Temps bounce back quickly on Tuesday and beyond though as temps are forecast to reach or exceed 95 degrees.

Have a happy 4th everyone!
