From Fox 7 Weather Chief Meteorologist Scott Fisher:

Another wild temperature swing is in the cards for Central Texas over the next few days, Feb. 15-21.

Temps are likely to soar ahead of a cold front, zooming up into the 70s for Thursday and then plunge back to the 50s for Saturday.

Showers will likely be in the cards on Friday and into the weekend as well.

The cold air will settle in through Saturday and then relax on Sunday as temps rebound.

We could really use several inches of rain as most of Texas is now classified as either “abnormally dry” or in “drought” mode.
