And Maria, really look,
no shade on the work that we do here.
But if folks step outside,
they don't know they need a jacket.
Absolutely. You know,
this morning I even joked how you may
not even need coffee because you know
that that'll be enough to wake you up.
You know what else?
This crazy front button.
Pollen. Ohh. Girl,
you had to just bring us down back to her.
OK, yes, go ahead. It's not the kind
that you wanna you wanna hear about.
OK. I'm just gonna say mountain
cedar is back on our charts.
I know it.
I know it's at a moderate count
of fungus at a low count.
And this is just something that
we see this time of the year.
We have probably seen a little bit of
this the weeks leading up to today,
but today was actually present on
our charts at a moderate count.
Very oftentimes we see this type of pollen,
this type of this time of the
year and it's only the beginning.
We'll see it at least through
Valentine's Day.
That's about when we start
to see it taper off.
But that dry air,
that West wind definitely brought
in some of that pollen today.
So if you are a struggling a little bit,
that may be the reason why today,
just make sure to bundle up that cold air.
It's here to stay through
the middle of the week.
And what I need you to know about tonight
is that it's going to be mostly clear.
It's going to be cold.
Not as windy as last night,
but definitely on the breezy side.
Still helping keep some
of that cold air in place.
And this weekend temperature still
gets close to about 70 degrees.
We do have brain returning,
so that's something else that
you need to know right now.
Looking at a beautiful blue sky,
overhead temperature of 43 degrees,
feeling like 41,
but we are going to warm up to about 46
if you can call it warming up right,
48 degrees around 150 degrees around 3:00.
That is where we top out winds out of
the north and E 1020 mph looking very likely.
For us the remainder of the day,
that's the reason why it's still going
to feel like the mid 40s for the afternoon.
If you are in our north and
our northwestern counties,
you will likely struggle to get
out of the 40s today,
likely a high temperature only a 48
degrees in Denton and in McKinney
about 49 in Greenville, 45 in buoy,
Archer City, Wichita Falls,
Breckenridge, Graham at about 47.
And this is because that cold air
got to you a little bit sooner
in overnight and and it's going
to stay there a bit longer.
So our temperature actually does.
Climb over the next few days,
54 degrees expected on Thursday,
70 degrees on Friday,
a quick warm up all thanks to
a southerly wind returning.
We're going to notice more cloud cover
over the next few days as well with
very small rain potential mid 60s.
Then come Saturday and Sunday
as another front comes in.
So remember I told you it goes up,
that's 70 and then it comes right back down,
mid 60s rain potential, very,
very small coverage at about a 10% Thursday,
Friday and Saturday going up
to 30% coverage on Sunday.
And then coming back down to
about 20% coverage on Monday,
here's what it looks like across the country.
We did see the threat for severe weather
across portions of Louisiana and Mississippi.
We'll talk a little bit more
about that in the next half hour.
That rain now extending across portions
of the East Coast and into Florida.
We have another system coming in
across the interior Pacific Northwest.
You can see it right there.
That's that next front that
comes in Friday into Saturday.
That's the reason we're cooling
off again over the weekend,
not nearly as much as what
we saw the cool off.
Here today and we're going to
see that sunshine across all
of the plains and into Texas.
All of the Lone Star State
seeing sunshine today,
but we do notice more cloud cover tomorrow.
So let me show you what that looks like.
This is Thursday around midday.
We're going to see that cloud cover
really mostly across our Western counties.
We may see a little light shower
late Thursday into Friday morning,
mainly north and West, excuse me.
And east of the Metroplex,
we'll notice this really taper off.
I'm not expecting a lot of rain,
not expecting severe weather for us.
We do have another potential
for rain though comes.
Saturday in our Eastern counties and
then Sunday coverage looks to be a
little bit better for our Northern counties.
So just keep that in mind.
We may see some rain this weekend,
but it's not going to be a washout.
Temperatures stay in the mid 60s Saturday,
Sunday, 70s on Monday,
60s again Tuesday, 50s next week.
Up and down.
Like I said, Tashara around here.
All right, Marielle,
thank you.
