A few isolated showers and storms have caused pockets of cooler temperatures and more cloud cover across the South Plains. The potential for daily rain chances is expected for the middle and second half of the week, with temperatures expected to remain in the mid-80s and high winds expected to maintain a steady pace of around 10 to 20 mph. However, there is a potential for another cold front next weekend that could potentially lower temperatures.
