Changing it up a bit

After a week full of autumn like weather, it's time for a reality check. This has been a strange month. Just look how much of the central and southern Plains have experienced cooler than normal weather. 

We are about to see a similar weather pattern that happened back in June when we had one of our hottest stretches of the year. The big "H" - or the dome of high pressure on the weather map is coming back. Just look at the weather pattern back in the middle of June.


Some areas were hitting 100° during that time. And even though the pattern will be similar, we are unlikely to see temperatures get back to 100°. The high pressure system will setup over northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma. 

That will limit the chances for rain in the Plains. In fact, between now and the middle of next week, most of us won't get any rain at all.
