.KEY MESSAGES...

- A more settled pattern with a warming trend in temperatures is
  expected later this week into the weekend.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 124 AM CDT Wed Jul 16 2025

Isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible in eastern sections
of the Big Country with afternoon heating, where mid level moisture
and clouds are present. Any storms should dissipate by sunset.
Otherwise warmer and drier today as upper ridging builds in from the
east. South winds will increase slightly today, becoming gusty at
times mid morning into the afternoon as a lee trough develops.
Otherwise, it will remain more humid due to recent rainfall and
southerly winds from the Gulf and Mexico.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 124 AM CDT Wed Jul 16 2025

The pattern shifts to warmer and drier for west central Texas as
we go into the second half of July. An upper level ridge of high
pressure will build into the Southern Plains on Thursday and
expand southward into north Texas over the weekend. This will
result in hot and dry conditions for our area. Rain chances will
be slim to none this weekend and into the beginning of next week.
High temperatures will creep up into the upper 90s to near 100
degrees across the western Concho Valley and Big Country by Sunday
and Monday. Overnight lows will be warm and muggy in the 70s.
