I wish I could say that.
But yeah, in South Texas, Nicole,
we, we look for the chupacabra and
the chupacabra saw his shadow and
that means six more weeks of terror.
So, yeah, it's it's a much different
forecast and it doesn't look good.
Yeah, I guess not now.
Our winter is coming to an end.
We're thawing out.
The moisture is on its way out.
That is the good news.
Now North Texas is still getting
some pretty good moisture and
that's going to be a problem for
probably about another few hours.
I think they'll be cold overnight,
but they're gonna also dry out.
So the entire state will
be OK on Friday for sure.
Let's show you First things first.
On a Thursday,
the updated drought report,
not much of a change.
The worst drought condition in
the entire state is still right
here in the San Antonio metro.
What has changed is the outline
of the severe drought.
So if you look at the top and the banner
and you see severe third over from
left to right and where it was last week.
Was SE.
This was all in severe drought and I'm
talking about Wilson down to Karns,
including Gonzalez County.
Well,
now that has all improved to dry
yellow means no drought to moderate
in some of the communities to our SE.
And the severe area has shifted
to the southwest now down I-35
towards Eagle Pass and Laredo.
But this has not changed at all.
This exceptional drought pocket is still
where it is about half of Bear County,
all of Kendall, about half of Bandera County.
All right.
Into downtown it is still cloudy.
We were hoping to get a little
bit of sunshine in before
she sets a pair of fours on.
The thermometer still feels like 37 though.
Northwest wind about 15 mph,
but at least it's a dry cold, right?
38 degree dew point means this
air is still relatively dry.
If you're heading out for evening plans,
it's still going to be cold.
Winds are out of the north.
We won't see much of a clearing.
I'm going to be optimistic and say
maybe a little bit of sun before
it sets and as we work our way
to the 8:00 o'clock hour mid 40s.
Could be the rule.
I think we could climb to about 48
and grab that high at about again.
It's about 15 degrees below
average still OK Now,
the last of the moisture,
light, light little band that
moved through a few hours ago,
just a bit of a drizzle and then you
can see into eastern Bear County,
it was a little bit more measurable
and then it rained itself out.
And so this was the big impulse
from yesterday and last night.
And then just one little beat
band and that's it.
And you can see out towards north of Del Rio,
that little bit of moisture is gone as well.
Looking down over Calaveras
Lake at more numbers,
we've got the pair of fours.
Minnesota's Randolph and Timberwood Park,
but just out of the 30s is Bandera.
Some 50s are showing up to our
South and W 55 Carrizo Springs Del
Rio at 52 and overnight tonight
some of you will still freeze.
It's going to be close in San Antonio,
I think we get down to 35 or 36,
but it will be a light
freeze in the Hill Country.
Now remember that even though the San
Antonio airports at 35 or 36 outlying
areas of Bear County probably going
to get down to about 33 now as far
as tomorrow afternoon noticeably.
Former as we go up to about 56,
still about 10 degrees below
average for this time of year,
but here goes the system finally gonna
kick itself out this upper level low,
you're not gonna see that swirl.
We were looking at the last couple of
days on water vapor because now that
low is starting to open up a bit and
that means it's not going to be an
energy producer for any more rain.
But it is a trough of low pressure
now and you can see it just kind of
sliding off to the South of Dallas
right there now heading into Friday,
because that's moving out drier
air is going to be definitely.
Moving in and we'll finally
clear out and get sunshine.
It's gonna feel so good tomorrow.
High of about 57 degrees.
But when it's gonna be sunny out.
It's gonna be a great Friday.
You're gonna feel fantastic.
Seven day forecast.
Beautiful weather.
Waiting for us over the weekend too.
Now we'll still be a little breezy on Friday.
Winds out of the north and
about 15 to 20 on gusts.
Then we turn South and that's going to
be when temperatures warm up even more.
Look for a light freeze on
Saturday morning at 32.
That'll mean maybe 29 or
30 in the Hill Country.
At least,
maybe some spots 26 or 27.
But a S wind takes us to 62
to 71 to even 74 by Monday.
That's also when we start
bringing in a few more clouds.
It will be a breezy Monday out ahead of
a system that brings in more rainfall.
This is some much needed rain,
so February looking good.
As far as rain,
we're about half an inch
right now and a decent chance
next Tuesday and Wednesday.
