Updated at 533 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025 - Warming trend through the week ahead of the next cold front - Dense morning fog expected by midweek && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1201 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025 Apart from Thursday (due to a reinforcing surge of high pressure), above normal temperatures are expected with limited moisture available. As we head into the weekend, another cold front should be making its way across the region. While confidence is on the higher side of a cold front passage, confidence remains on the lower end in regards to timing and strength of the front as models continue to struggle with it. At the minimum, at least near normal temperatures will be expected to return early next week. As for rain, limited moisture will keep rain chances near zero percent through the end of the work week before low (20-30%) chances for rain return late this weekend as moisture increases ahead of our next cold front. While moisture levels will be low, enough shallow moisture will be available to promote fog development beginning early tomorrow morning and continuing through late week. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 533 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025 Other than ALI/VCT experiencing varying fog vsby reductions ranging from LIFR to MVFR, the rest of the terminals are in VFR. Expect fog to be completely dissipated by 15Z, leading to VFR conditions across all of South Texas under some upper-level clouds. A weak cold front will pass through later this afternoon into evening, shifting light winds likely under 12 knots out of the north to northeast. The drier air in the wake will reduce fog chances for Thursday morning. && .MARINE... Issued at 1201 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025 A gentle to moderate southwest breeze (BF 3-4) tomorrow will shift to the northeast Wednesday night as a reinforcing surge of high pressure moves into the region. Onshore winds are expected to return Thursday evening into Thursday night and continue into the weekend. Rain chances will remain low (less than 10%) through the end of the work week before 20-30% chances for showers return this weekend across the Gulf waters. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1201 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025 Minimum relative humidity values will dip below 30% through Wednesday across portions of the Brush Country. However, due to generally low ERCs in the 50-70th percentile and weak winds of 5-10 mph, elevated fire weather conditions remain negligible at this time. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
