Mainly a hot and dry forecast to continue for West Central Texas.
Thunderstorms are expected to develop over western Oklahoma and
the Texas Panhandle late this afternoon and evening. Looks like
most of this activity will remain north of our area, although
cannot rule out a storm or two making it into northwest portions
of the Big Country before dissipating later this evening.
Confidence is fairly low, so will maintain slight POPs across this
area this evening. Also, latest visible satellite imagery shows a
cumulus field developing over the Concho Valley and northern
Edwards Plateau early this afternoon. Latest CAMs show the
potential for isolated development late this afternoon and early
evening. Again, confidence is quite low over this area as well,
but will add an isolated mention through the early evening hours.

Otherwise, expect warm temperatures tonight, with overnight lows
mainly in the low to mid 70s. High pressure will be centered over
the area tomorrow, with hot and dry weather prevailing. Expect
highs tomorrow afternoon ranging from the mid/upper 90s east, to
the low 100s west.

...Shower and thunderstorm chances return Sunday and Monday...

The center of upper level high pressure passes over West Central
Texas Friday night with southwest flow aloft returning Saturday,
and zonal flow aloft Sunday. High temperatures of 98 to 103 degree
Saturday will decrease a couple degrees Sunday with increasing
clouds. A chance of showers and thunderstorms returns late Sunday,
ahead of a weak cold front Sunday night. Instability increases
Sunday with GFS MUCAPES of up to 2800 J/KG Sunday afternoon and
evening. This along with 0-6 KM bulk shears increasing to 30 KTS
Sunday evening, some storms could be severe. Severe potential
continues Monday as moisture and instability remain over the
region. A few isolated storms possible in the Big Country
Tuesday, but warm and dry conditions are otherwise the second half
of the week, as an upper ridge reestablishes itself.
