Lubbock, Texas – After a mild and partly cloudy morning in Lubbock, residents can expect climbing temperatures and storm risks to return by early next week, with highs reaching into the 90s.

According to the National Weather Service in Lubbock, Friday will stay dry and breezy, with a high near 79°F and northeast winds shifting south this afternoon. Temperatures will warm into the high 80s by Saturday and hit 93°F by Sunday. Storm chances increase starting Monday, with a 50% likelihood of showers and thunderstorms after 1 p.m.

The weekend brings sunshine across the region, but humidity and southerly winds will make conditions feel warmer. South Plains residents should begin preparing for a stormy start to the week, especially as rainfall could impact afternoon commutes Monday and Tuesday. Areas south and east of Lubbock may see isolated downpours and gusty winds.

Locals are encouraged to limit outdoor activities during peak heat this Sunday and to secure outdoor items ahead of Monday’s potential storms.

Thunderstorm chances will linger through Thursday, with rain coverage peaking midweek. More updates are expected as confidence grows in next week’s storm timeline.
