265 FXUS64 KSJT 100950 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 450 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024 ...New SHORT TERM... .SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 442 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024 Early this morning, an area of convection is currently exiting Kimble county to the southeast. A weak frontal boundary will stall over the area today in the vicinity of the Concho Valley and Heartland area. The front will remain a focus for additional showers and thunderstorms later today during peak heating. The airmass later this afternoon will become moderately unstable and mostly uncapped, with deep layer shear between 25 and 30 kts. Storms could develop just about anywhere across the area this afternoon and evening, with a threat for large hail and strong winds, especially with any storms that form along the aforementioned stalled front. In addition, precipitable water values will range between 1.5 and 1.75 inches across the area, which will contribute to heavy downpours and a threat for some localized flooding. Will maintain a medium chance for precipitation today, decreasing to a low chance this evening. Additional thunderstorms are expected to develop across the higher terrain of eastern New Mexico and the Texas Panhandle this afternoon and early evening ahead of a prominent shortwave/weak low tracking east across New Mexico. These storms may form into a complex and track southeast across the the area late tonight, primarily across the Big Country with an attendant wind/hail threat. Temperatures will be considerably cooler today, with highs ranging from the low to mid 80s north of the front across the Big Country, to the upper 80s to near 90 south of the front. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 229 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024 Northwest flow will continue across West Central Texas through Tuesday and into early Wednesday, with models continuing to show shower and isolated thunderstorm development through Tuesday night and into early Wednesday. Once the upper-level shortwave trough exits the area to our southeast by late Wednesday morning, the upper-level ridge begins to build back across West Central Texas through the remainder of the week and next weekend. Temperatures are expected to gradually climb to above normals conditions by that later part of the week, with afternoon high temperatures reaching into the mid 90s to 102 by the weekend. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1240 AM CDT Mon Jun 10 2024 A weak cold front currently north of the KABI terminal will move slowly south across the area overnight. Expect light north to northeast winds behind the front into Monday. Challenges regarding convection timing/placement continue this forecast period. An area of SHRA/TS currently west of KSJT will move east southeast overnight, possibly affecting the southern terminals. Will maintain vicinity wording and TEMPO groups for this activity as it moves east/southeast the next several hours. For later today, additional convection is possible and will include PROB30 groups for potential afternoon SHRA/TS. Expect light northeast winds today, becoming light easterly by this evening. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
