LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) – Our forecast includes near record warmth this afternoon and again late this week.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I mentioned here that the weather pattern overall will remain nearly unchanged through the work week. However, an eastward shift in the low pressure over the Eastern US and the high pressure over the Southwestern US will bring much warmer weather to West Texas and eastern New Mexico today and in the days ahead.<\/p>\n

\"SunnySunny with a few clouds, breezy, and very warm Tuesday afternoon.(KCBD First Alert)<\/p>\n

Under the increasing influence of the Southwestern ridge skies today generally will be sunny, winds somewhat breezy (west-southwesterly 10 to 20 mph), with well-above average temperatures for Veterans\u2019 Day. <\/p>\n

For Lubbock, the average high is 66\u00b0. The record high? That\u2019s 82\u00b0, set on this date in 1956. Above you can see what I\u2019m expecting, including my forecast of a record high.<\/p>\n

In case you missed it yesterday, here again are Lubbock\u2019s record highs and the year set for each day this week:<\/p>\n

Monday 85\u00b0 set in 1927<\/p>\n

Tuesday is 82\u00b0 in 1956<\/p>\n

Wednesday 85\u00b0 in 1995<\/p>\n

Thursday 82\u00b0 in 1973<\/p>\n

Friday 85\u00b0 1933<\/p>\n

Saturday 85\u00b0 1965<\/p>\n

Our Next Weather-Maker<\/p>\n

Regarding the Pacific storm I mentioned yesterday. There are some changes. <\/p>\n

It is still anticipated to move onto the West Coast over the next few days. It will bring heavy rain to California Wednesday night through Friday with heavy snow in the mountains. Possibly three or more feet of snow in the Sierras. The system may bring snow to the mountains of northern and western New Mexico by Saturday.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the change in our outlook from yesterday. <\/p>\n

Guidance now is slower on the movement of this system, which would temper our weekend cooldown and delay the onset of possible rain. Guidance also takes the center of the storm across the Panhandle versus the KCBD\/FOX34 viewing area. This change, too, would temper the cooldown as well as decrease our shower chances.<\/p>\n

\"ThereThere is a slight chance of showers late Saturday and Sunday.(KCBD First Alert)<\/p>\n

There is still much time and ground to cover before these changes begin. Which means there remains much room for changes to the outlook between now and then. We will continue to fine tune our forecast throughout the week.<\/p>\n

On This Date<\/p>\n

2009 (11th-12th): A widespread dense fog event occurred over the extreme southeastern Panhandle and the northern Rolling Plains late on the 11th through the early morning hours of the 12th. A<\/p>\n

teenage boy was injured in an auto accident in Paducah during the late evening hours of the 11th. Though weather was not a contributing factor in the accident, air ambulance operations were not possible due to low visibility in fog and the patient died before he could be moved to a hospital.
