.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1214 AM CST Wed Nov 12 2025
With the return of southerly low level winds, it`s safe to say the
warming trend has begun. Readings as of this writing are 15-25
degrees warmer than at this same time 24 hours ago.
With a continued onshore wind off the Gulf and some mid-upper level
ridging keeping rain chances at bay, temperatures should run roughly
10 degrees or so above seasonable norms for the remainder of the
week. Look for lows back into the 60s and highs in the 80s. Patchy
late night and early morning fog will likely be an issue at times as
well.
Next western mid-upper trough should gradually fill/weaken as it
tracks across the Desert Southwest into the Plains early next week.
Whether or not its decaying surface trof/front is able to manage to
sag into portions of our area remains to be seen...but model trends
and consensus don`t generally look to be on our side. But, with
continued moisture modification, a weakening/departing ridge, and
potential weak disturbances embedded in the emerging wsw flow
aloft...we might be able to re-introduce some isolated to scattered
precip chances back into the forecast late in the weekend or early
next week. 47

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAF Issuance)
Issued at 430 AM CST Wed Nov 12 2025
Brief window for patchy fog near CLL later this morning, but
otherwise VFR conditions will prevail through this evening. Light
and variable winds early this morning will become predominantly
southerly after 15Z with sustained winds around 10-15 kt. Expect
a trend back towards light and variable winds after sunset. Model
guidance continues to suggest the potential for patchy fog early
Thursday morning mainly north of I-10. This looks most likely to
occur around or just after 12Z, so keep an eye on future TAF
packages to monitor trends.
