608 FXUS64 KSJT 041103 AAA AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service San Angelo TX 603 AM CDT Sat Oct 4 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... - Dry and warm weather will continue through the weekend. && .SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 140 AM CDT Sat Oct 4 2025 A few minor changes are expected in our weather today (compared to the past couple of days), but temperatures will remain about the same. Highs today are expected to be mostly 90-93 degrees, with a few upper 80s in southern portions of our area. The upper level ridge that has been in place over west and northwest Texas will weaken today, as an upper trough shifts east into the Rockies. Our area will have some increase in south to southeast winds today with an increasing surface pressure gradient. This to occur as a surface low deepens from northeastern Colorado across western Nebraska, as the leading portion of the aforementioned upper trough lifts across the central Rockies. Should have some afternoon cumulus over our area as low-level moisture increase a bit with the south to southeast low-level flow. Lows tonight are expected to be mostly in the lower to mid 60s. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday night through next Saturday) Issued at 1152 PM CDT Fri Oct 3 2025 Above normal temperatures are expected to continue for the next week. Dry conditions will likely continue for Sunday, before rain chances increase slightly for Monday through Wednesday. Southeast surface winds will allow for continuous warm, moist air advection next week. This combined with diurnal heating and a weak front could be enough to trigger a few showers and storms next week. Models are showing a weak front moving into north Texas Tuesday into Wednesday. Convergence along the front could allow for the development of showers as it moves into the area. However, with the lack of upper level support and relatively weak nature of the front, rain chances will remain low for now (<30%). Significant weather impacts are not expected with this system. && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 602 AM CDT Sat Oct 4 2025 VFR conditions will continue through the next 24 hours. South to southeast winds will increase by mid-morning at our TAF sites and continue through the afternoon. The higher wind speeds (9-12 knots) are expected at KABI, with some higher gusts in the afternoon. Wind speeds will be around 10 knots at KSJT and 7-10 knots at our southern terminals. Winds will decrease again in the evening. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
