Warmer weather tomorrow precedes a return of cold northerly winds Thursday

LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - As expected, a cold, windy day on the South Plains with little moisture for communities.

Tomorrow, a brief warm-up with afternoon temps is expected to edge back into the low to mid-50s by late afternoon. Some clouds through mid-day, then westerly winds of 15-20 should push the clouds east and combine with the sunshine to bring in some warmth.

The warming is only tomorrow, as it’s back to some clouds, northerly winds, and colder temperatures on Thursday with a second surge of cold air. I expect daytime highs to return to the 40s on Thursday with morning lows falling to the low 20s Friday morning.

Warmer afternoon temps will return to the 50s Friday and should climb to around and maybe above 60 degrees Saturday and Sunday. It will be breezy over the weekend with a combination of clouds and sun.

Early next week, colder with another chance of rain.
