November Rainfall Totals: Lubbock

November Rainfall Totals: Childress

Skies today will range from mostly cloudy near the NM border to sunny off the Caprock. This will keep highs in the low to mid 50s well west to around 60 farther east.

Low clouds will overtake all areas tonight and keep lows above freezing.

Near seasonal temperatures expected through mid-week before an evening front Wednesday brings temperatures back below normal through Friday. Areas across the southern South Plains and Rolling Plains may see a few rain showers Friday. Quiet and dry conditions through the weekend as temperatures begin to warm.

This forecast shows that the odds are slightly higher than usual for average to warmer-than-average and/or drier-than-average weather for West Texas, but doesn’t completely rule out a small potential for a cold snap or even snow through December 12.

2024 was the second-wettest November on record at Lubbock with 4.85" of total rainfall. This was second only to November of 2004 when 6.65" of rain fell at Lubbock.

2024 was the wettest November ever recorded at Childress, with a total of 8.55" of rainfall for the month.
