Good morning, Central Texas! It’s Monday, November 24th, and here’s what’s coming up today on KNCT.

Weather Outlook

We’re starting the week with scattered rain showers across the area. Most of the activity is still centered to our west and northwest, but several spots will see steady rainfall through the day. Afternoon highs will reach the 70s, with winds shifting from the southwest and west to a more northwesterly flow. Showers should taper off by early evening, setting us up for a dry night.

Tuesday brings plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid-70s—a beautiful rebound after today’s rain.

Midweek Cool Down arrives with a secondary push of colder air. Expect highs in the upper 50s to low 60s, with overnight lows dipping into the mid to upper 30s.

Thanksgiving Forecast looks bright and sunny, though it will start off chilly. Afternoon highs should land comfortably in the mid-60s to low 70s—perfect for outdoor gatherings or a post-dinner walk. Stay tuned for hourly updates from Bill Hecke and get forecasts on-demand at myKNCT.com.
