(Today and tonight)
Issued at 325 AM CDT Sun Jun 23 2024

An upper level ridge centered over Texas is our dominant weather
feature. With low-level moisture a little less than yesterday, skies
today will be sunny and anticipate only patchy cumulus development
over our eastern counties. With some expansion of the 850mb
thermal ridge into our area from the west, expect highs this
afternoon to be a little hotter than yesterday. Going with highs
mostly in the mid 90s in our Heartland and southern counties, and
upper 90s to around 100 degrees in the Big Country and the Concho
Valley. South to southeast winds will be 6-12 mph.

For tonight, expect clear skies through most of the night, with
patchy low cloud development over the I-10 corridor toward morning.
Temperatures will be warm with overnight lows in the lower to mid
70s in our southern and central counties, and mostly in the mid 70s
across the Big Country. Southeast winds will become south overnight.

(Monday through Saturday)
Issued at 418 AM CDT Sun Jun 23 2024

Hot and dry conditions are expected across West Central Texas
through this coming work week and into next weekend, as high
pressure continues to build and settle over the area. Along with
warming 850mb temperatures into the 18-24 degrees Celsius range,
afternoon high temperatures will range from the mid 90s to near
100 for the beginning of the workweek, then reach as high as the
upper 90s to near 104 from Wednesday through Friday. Relative
humidity values will remain elevated above 35 percent during the
day and ranging anywhere from 65 to 95 percent overnight with
persistent southerly flow filtering moisture into the area through
much of the week. This will likely lead to muggy and humid
conditions across the area, and some increase cloud cover with
overnight stratus forming mainly south of the I-20 corridor
through Friday.This increased cloud cover could lead to slightly
cooler temperatures in comparison to any areas that may see more
sunshine to the north.
