Windy 57° | 29° |
|
Sunshine returns in earnest today, but the wind will stick around making for a warmer, but windy day. Highs will be in the upper 50s to middle 60s with a northwest wind blowing at 20 to 30 mph with some gusts upwards of 40-50 mph possible throughout the day.

It will be a cold night for the High Plains, but the wind will drop off as surface high pressure builds into the region from the north and northwest. Skies will be clear as overnight low temperatures drop into the middle 20s to the lower 30s by sunrise Saturday. Winds will blow from the northwest at 5 to 15 mph through the overnight hours.

TOMORROW'S FORECAST FOR AMARILLO Saturday, March 13, 2010 |
 |
Sunny 62° | 30° |
| *****DON'T FORGET TO SET YOUR CLOCKS AHEAD ONE HOUR BEFORE GOING TO BED SATURDAY NIGHT!*****
*****DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BEGINS AT 2AM SUNDAY!*****
Just in time for the upcoming weekend, we will see less wind, more sunshine and high temperatures much closer to where we should be this time of the year! Yep, it's going to be a simply gorgeous Satuday!! The 30 year average is at 61 degrees, and there's a good chance most of us will top that! In fact, under a sunny sky, high temperatures warm into the lower to upper 60s. Winds will blow from the northwest early in the day then shift to the south through the afternoon. Wind speeds will be light at 5 to 15 mph. |
TOMORROW NIGHT: Clear 30° |
| After a warm day across the High Plains, temperatures will fall quickly (as they usually do in calm, dry conditions) into the lower 30s and upper 20s. That's pretty normal for this time of year. Expect a clear to mostly clear night, with light winds. Those winds will shift from the northwest to the southeast by early Sunday morning. |

EXTENDED FORECAST FOR AMARILLO |
| Sunday, March 14, 201032°|63° |
| *****DON'T FORGET TO SET YOUR CLOCKS AHEAD ONE OUR BEFORE GOING TO BED SATURDAY NIGHT!*****
*****DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BEGINS 2AM SUNDAY!*****
As we lose an hour of sleep (but gain an hour of daylight in the evenings), another upper-level storm will be poised and ready to drop into the area. That storm will spread clouds into the High Plains from west to east during the day and by Sunday night, a few rain showers may move in as well...especially across western parts of the High Plains. High temperatures will be mild one more day before a cold front drops into the area Sunday night and early Monday morning. Highs will reach the upper 50s to middle 60s by Sunday afternoon. The wind will also increase from the southeast up to 15 to 25 mph with some gusts upwards of 35-40 mph possible. |
| Monday, March 15, 201035°|50° |
| Beware of the ides of March! With another upper-level storm tracking across the area, we'll have a renewed chance for rain on Monday. Scattered showers will be possible throughout the day. Outside of the chance for rain, we'll have a mostly cloudy to cloudy sky to help keep temperatures down in the middle 40s to middle 50s. Wind speeds will be between 20 and 30 mph most of the day with some gusts upwards of 40-50 mph possible. That will keep wind chill values down in the 20s and 30s most of the day as well. Brr. Rainfall totals of a quarter to half an inch will be possible. |
| Tuesday, March 16, 201031°|60° |
| We get right back to a mostly sunny sky on Tuesday as upper-level high pressure settles into the area. Highs will rebound in the upper 50s to lower 60s with a south to southwest wind blowing at 5 to 15 mph. |
| Wednesday, March 17, 201035°|65° |
| The wind will increase a bit on Wednesday, but it's still shaping up to be an awfully nice day. We'll still have a mostly sunny sky and highs will reach the lower 60s to lower 70s! The wind will blow from the southwest at 10 to 20 mph. |
| Thursday, March 18, 201037°|64° |
| Breezy weather returns on Thursday as another upper-level storm starts to edge our way. A weak cold front is also expected to arrive by Thursday afternoon, so the wind will shift from the southwest to the northwest at 15 to 25 mph. Highs will still climb into the 60s to lower 70s under a mostly sunny to partly cloudy sky. |
