.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 138 AM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024

We should see a few isolated showers developing through this
morning, mainly along and south of the I-10 corridor and
potentially the far eastern portions of the Big Country and
Heartland. Main impacts with any of these storms that develop
will be wind, heavy rain showers, and frequent lightning.
Increasing clouds and lower ceilings are beginning to develop
across much of the area this morning, due to the moist airmass in
place across West Central Texas. However, this will be short-lived
as sunny and drier conditions will start to take over by later
this morning and kickoff the warming and drying trend that is
expected to last for the next week at least. Afternoon high
temperatures for today will reach into mid 80s to mid 90s, and
overnight lows will range in the upper 60s to low 70s.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through next Wednesday)
Issued at 121 PM CDT Wed Jun 12 2024

Hot and generally dry conditions will prevail across West Central
Texas through the middle of next week. Upper level ridging centered
over Baja California and northwest Mexico will build across West
Central Texas Friday into the middle part of next week. This will
result in dry conditions along with above normal temperatures. Highs
will generally be in the mid 90s to near 100, with overnight lows in
the 70s. The GFS and ECMWF indicate an increase in moisture
across coastal Texas by the middle of next week. There is
uncertainty if any of this moisture will make it into the forecast
area, but for now, upper level ridging looks to keep most of this
moisture shunted to the southeast.
