    LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) -Sunday is basically a weather reset. Expect mostly sunny skies with highs in the mid-80s to mid-90s, with Lubbock around the lower 90s. Light winds and no meaningful rain chance. If you’re a fan of this weather, enjoy it while it lasts because the South Plains is about to flip from warm to much cooler and wetter. Monday will start pretty quiet with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. But changes will arrive on Monday evening. A storm system dropping into the Southwest will

    LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) -Dangerous, potentially record-breaking heat will grip the region through Monday. Extreme Heat Warning is in effect from noon to 8 p.m. for portions of our area including Childress, Silverton, Matador, and Paducah.

    LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Triple digit heat isn’t going anywhere across the South Plains, and the hottest days are still to come. A Heat Advisory remains in place until 8 p.m. for the eastern half of our viewing area where temperatures are expected to climb around 105 degrees in some locations. There’s a slim chance for isolated storms late Friday afternoon or evening. However, most of us will stay dry. Saturday will be even hotter.

    LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) -If you’re hoping for rain today, the odds aren’t great, but a few communities could get lucky. A few storms may pop up across the northern half of our viewing area, with strong wind gusts being the main threat. Storms are most likely north of a line from Muleshoe to Plainview to Childress thanks to a leftover boundary from Saturday night’s storms. Elsewhere, expect plenty of sunshine with afternoon highs in the 90s and lower 100s. Sunday night will be quiet, followed by an

    Storm chances fade as weekend heat builds (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Most of us will stay hot and dry Friday evening, but a few storms could sneak into our northern counties. Most models are keeping the storms out of our area, so rain is far from guaranteed, and we expect most areas to remain dry. However, if a storm does make it, the wind will be the biggest concern. Gusts could reach 70 mph, and strong outflows could race ahead of the storm. Meaning we might see more dust than rain. By Saturday, the heat takes over again. High pressure w
