Amarillo, TX – Bright November sunshine will warm the Texas Panhandle toward 70 degrees, but chilly nights and changing winds tell another story.
Residents across Amarillo, Potter County and Randall County face a noticeable temperature swing before rain chances return Saturday.
Temperatures could fall from afternoon highs near 70 degrees to nighttime lows around 42 degrees during the coming days.
According to the National Weather Service in Amarillo, sunshine will dominate much of the workweek, with cooler mornings and breezy conditions developing.
The biggest change arrives Saturday, November 14, when showers become possible across the area.
Warm November Sunshine Meets Chilly Panhandle Nights Amarillo begins Tuesday, November 10, with crisp conditions before temperatures climb toward 70 degrees.
Sunshine and southwest winds around 5 mph will make the afternoon favorable for outdoor activities.
However, temperatures fall toward 45 degrees Tuesday night.
Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11, brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 65 degrees.
Northeast winds of 5 10 mph accompany the cooler afternoon.
Temperatures then drop toward 42 degrees Wednesday night.
That represents a 28 degree difference between Tuesday's afternoon high and Wednesday night's expected low.
Residents heading outdoors early Thursday should keep jackets nearby.
Thursday Warmup Before Friday Winds Increase Thursday, November 12, delivers another pleasant afternoon, with sunshine and temperatures reaching approximately 70 degrees.
West winds of 5 10 mph accompany the warmer conditions.
Thursday night turns clear, with temperatures falling toward 42 degrees again.
Friday, November 13, remains sunny, although afternoon temperatures settle near 65 degrees.
South winds increase to 5 15 mph, with gusts reaching 20 mph.
Those winds could move loose leaves and lightweight outdoor decorations across exposed Panhandle properties.

Saturday Brings a Developing Rain Chance The next meaningful weather change arrives Saturday, November 14.
