Abilene, Texas – A morning cold front lowered temperatures across West Central Texas, setting up a warmer finish to the week.
According to the National Weather Service office in Abilene/San Angelo, a cold front has already moved through the region early today, bringing slightly cooler afternoon temperatures. A second, weaker cold front is expected late Wednesday, keeping temperatures on the cooler side through Thursday before a warming trend takes hold.
Forecast data shared by the National Weather Service shows high temperatures today mainly in the mid-60s across the region, including Abilene, Ballinger, and San Angelo. Overnight lows are expected to drop into the upper 30s to low 40s in many locations, with some northern and rural areas dipping into the mid-30s.
By Friday, higher pressure developing to the west is expected to allow temperatures to rebound. Highs are forecast to climb into the mid- to upper 70s across much of West Central Texas, with some communities approaching the upper 70s by Saturday and Sunday. Overnight lows will also trend upward, rising into the mid-40s to low 50s by the weekend.
The National Weather Service notes breezy northerly winds are expected this afternoon behind the initial cold front, which may be noticeable for commuters and outdoor activities. Dry weather is forecast to persist throughout the period, with no rain chances indicated through early next week.
The warming trend is expected to continue into early next week, with temperatures remaining above average for early February.
This temperature pattern may be especially relevant for students, outdoor workers, and weekend travelers planning activities across the Abilene and San Angelo areas.
