Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service SAN ANGELO TX
329 PM CDT MON SEP 26 2016

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight and Tuesday)

Much quieter in the short term this afternoon. An area of mainly
light rain continuing across the Northwest Hill country and
Heartland this afternoon will slowly erode and slip south, as drier
air filters in behind the cold front that moved through on Sunday
evening. Will base the latest PoPs on radar trends, but at this
point, will leave just the area south of a San Angelo to Brownwood
line with PoPs tonight. Coolest conditions continue across the south
under the rain right now, with the warmest across the north where
ceilings have lifted and a few peeks of sunshine are filtering
through the clouds.

As for forecast temperatures, cool tonight with overnight lows in the
mid and upper 50s. A little more sunshine on Tuesday, with highs in
the mid and upper 70s. Both are a little below seasonal normals.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday Night through Monday)

Looks like a quiet and dry weather pattern this week across West
Central Texas. A strong upper level low develops across the eastern
CONUS and a narrow ridge builds over the central US. At the surface,
a high pressure ridge will builds south across the Plains mid to
late week. Low level southerly flow returns Sunday and Monday as
an upper level trough moves into the western CONUS. Highs will be
in the upper 70s to mid 80s, with lows in the 50s through Saturday
morning and then 60s Sunday and Monday.
