Loop 250 Saturday morning

What happened: Saturday’s cold snap brought drizzling rain through out Midland.  Starting around 9 am through noon Midlanders were treated to slow moister to kick off the first full weekend of November.

MAF airport recorded 0.15 inches and Air Park 0.13 inches on Saturday.  Weather stations around town recorded about 0.2 inches as the slow moving clouds were fairly consistent and wide spread.  Per the NWS, Midland averages 0.72 inches in November.  Last year Midland only saw 0.01 inches of rain but in 2024 recorded 1.5 inches.

The drizzly weather continued Sunday, but no really moisture was record with most stations around 0.01, which was also the recorded total at MAF.
