Updated at 512 AM CST Thu Dec 11 2025 - Gradual warm-up through the weekend ahead of the next cold front on Sunday - Patchy to areas of fog possible inland and across the coastal waters beginning Thursday night and continuing through the weekend - Low to medium chance for rain this weekend ahead of Sunday cold front && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1223 AM CST Thu Dec 11 2025 Near normal temperatures are expected Thursday before another warming trend begins Thursday night into Friday. Above normal temperatures will return Friday and continue through early this weekend before our next front sweeps across the region late this weekend. Confidence is increasing in terms of timing, however, the strength of the front is still a bit cloudy. At the minimum, at least near normal temperatures will be expected in the wake of the cold front. Due to limited moisture, rain chances for the rest of this work week and beginning of the weekend will be near zero. However, moisture will increase ahead of the front with low to medium (20-50%) rain chances returning Sunday. While moisture levels overall will be on the low end, sufficient low level moisture will be in place to support fog development during the overnight and early morning hours beginning Thursday night. This includes sea fog as well if light winds and cooler shelf waters persist. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 512 AM CST Thu Dec 11 2025 VFR conditions expected today through this evening.

Issued at 1223 AM CST Thu Dec 11 2025 Minimum relative humidity values will dip below 30% through Thursday across portions of the Brush Country.
