Early this morning, Lubbock sits near 39 degrees, with light winds and clear skies. The air feels crisp, especially on open roads like Loop 289 and US-84. Travel remains smooth, with dry pavement and good visibility.
By midmorning, the cold loosens its grip. Sunshine dominates, and temperatures climb steadily through the 50s and 60s. By afternoon, highs reach the mid-70s, a sharp February swing that feels almost abrupt. Jackets come off quickly once the sun climbs higher.
Tonight stays calm and mild. Skies remain mostly clear, and temperatures dip only into the upper 30s. The quick cooldown feels manageable, with no freeze concerns for roads or infrastructure.
Saturday continues the warm stretch. Afternoon highs push into the low 70s, supported by light southeast winds. Clouds increase slightly by evening, but conditions stay dry and comfortable for outdoor plans.
Saturday night brings more clouds and lows near 47 degrees, keeping the air mild for February standards.
Sunday trends partly sunny and warm again. Highs hold near 73 degrees, and winds stay light. The pattern feels more like early spring than mid-winter across the South Plains.
By Monday, clouds increase further. Highs reach the mid-70s, but a 20 percent chance of light showers develops late in the day and into Monday night. Roads could turn briefly damp, though widespread travel issues are not expected.
Looking into the six- to ten-day range, above-normal warmth strengthens across West Texas. While winter storms hammer the northern states, Lubbock appears headed toward a prolonged mild stretch.
