.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 432 AM CDT Sun Apr 28 2024

Many of the CAMs were correct regarding the development of a line
of thunderstorms across the region this morning. The remainder of
the depicted activity is still located across areas near San
Saba, Mason, and Brownwood as of 4:30 AM CDT. Lightning, small
hail, and wind gusts to 40 MPH are all possible with this
activity. We expect this activity will largely be out of our area
by 7 AM CDT. Afterwards, skies should clear for the afternoon
allowing temperatures to climb into the lower to middle 80s.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday through Saturday)
Issued at 432 AM CDT Sun Apr 28 2024

After the aforementioned activity moves out to the east, a break in
the active weather pattern will ensue. Zonal flow will develop aloft
following the departure of the low pressure. We will generally see a
gradual warm up into the lower 90s through Tuesday. A series of
minor disturbances aloft may yield enough support for a few
thunderstorms for the middle part of next week. Otherwise, both the
GFS and ECMWF depict the same forecast for the most part giving a
fair amount of confidence in this forecast.
