(Today and tonight) Issued at 226 AM CDT Sat Nov 1 2025 A shortwave trough is currently making its way through the southern plains, with the main effect in west central Texas being an increase in mid and upper level clouds. There are a few isolated radar returns across the Big Country, but none of this is making it to the ground with dry air below the mid and upper level clouds. Have kept sub-20% PoPs for isolated showers only in our far eastern areas today. A cold front will move through the area today, moving through our western areas first, eventually bringing north/northeasterly winds to the entire area by this afternoon. Temperatures will be cooler area-wide with highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Northerly winds will become light and variable overnight under clear skies, and lows will be cooler, dropping into the upper 30s to lower 40s. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday through Friday) Issued at 226 AM CDT Sat Nov 1 2025 Mild temperatures behind the cold front with dry weather are expected on Sunday. Upper level ridging will move into the area by Monday, eventually transitioning to zonal flow aloft by the end of the week. Temperatures will quickly rebound with the ridge over the area, warming up into the upper 70s/mid 80s Monday, and into the mid 80s to near 90 degrees by Thursday. No precipitation is expected through the end of next week. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 631 AM CDT Sat Nov 1 2025 VFR conditions expected across the area today with mid and upper level clouds moving across the area associated with an upper level disturbance. A cold front will move through the area shifting winds to the north from the current southerly and easterly wind directions throughout the day. Western sites like KSJT and KSOA may see a few gusts to near 20 knots. There may be a few SHRA near KBBD and KJCT this afternoon, but coverage is not expected to be high enough to warrant a need for a mention in the TAFs. Winds will diminish to light and variable between 00Z and 03Z this evening. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
