Tuesday and Wednesday the onshore flow will increase, so there will be more clouds with temperatures in the low to mid-70s.

Afternoon highs will be pleasant at ~ 78 degrees with sunny skies.

Tomorrow: Partly sunny, slight chance of p.m. shower.

Fall temperatures will likely continue for the upcoming week. Temperatures crank up into the mid 80’s out ahead of a cold front Thursday with sunny skies expected once again.

A chill will be in the air over the weekend. That hasn’t necessarily been the case since this last cold front pushed through. Dry air will be reinforced behind the front.

Highs on Saturday drop back down to around 80 with upper 70s for highs Sunday and Monday and morning lows in the 50s. While this morning’s lows have only been in the upper 40s to lower 50s, this afternoon’s highs may break a few records across parts of the Southern Plains and the Mississippi Delta.
