(This evening through Wednesday) Issued at 203 PM CDT Tue Sep 17 2024 ...Continued warmer than normal with dry weather... West central Texas remains under upper level ridging this afternoon. However, to our northwest, a shortwave is moving through eastern New Mexico and into the Texas Panhandle region. This is resulting in scattered thunderstorms moving northeast across northeastern New Mexico, and also lee troughing, allowing for a few gusts in our area out of the south and southeast. Although a few isolated showers are possible this afternoon and evening east of a Brownwood to Sonora line, as with yesterday, coverage is expected to be too sparse to be worth mentioning. Otherwise, the warm temperatures will continue, with lows tonight in the upper 60s to lower 70s, and highs tomorrow in the low to mid 90s. && .LONG TERM...-- Changed Discussion --(Thursday through Tuesday) Issued at 240 AM CDT Wed Sep 18 2024 ...Above Normal Temperatures and Dry... Expect hot and mainly dry conditions through much of the long term as a strong upper level ridge centers over the Southern Plains. Temperatures will be above normal with highs in the 90s through Saturday. Slightly cooler temperatures are possible early next week with highs in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Expect warm and humid conditions during the nights.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .AVIATION...
