.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 313 AM CDT Tue Jun 25 2024

Upper level ridge will remain in place across West Central Texas,
centered along the Texas and New Mexico border. Northwest flow
will allow for a convective complex to dive southeast across
portions of Oklahoma into North-Central and North-East Texas but
nothing looks like it will approach our area. Temperatures today
will be near or perhaps a little above where they ended up on
Monday so most areas will be in the 97 to 103 range today.
Dewpoints fell into the lower/mid 60s across the area on Monday
afternoon and kept Heat Index values generally near the 100 degree
mark. Wont be quite so lucky today with both higher temperatures
and a little better low level moisture pushing heat index readings
into the 100 to 105 range for most locations. This is flirting
with the heat advisory criteria of 105. Will hold off on the
advisory for now but will need to monitor closely.

(Wednesday through Monday)
Issued at 243 AM CDT Tue Jun 25 2024

Hot and dry conditions will continue as a strong upper ridge
persists over the region. Highs in the 99 to 104 range into
Friday may decrease a degree or two this week, as the upper ridge
slightly weakens. But this will be temporary, as the upper ridge
builds back in next week. Heat indices may flirt with heat
advisory criteria of 105 Wednesday into Friday, particularly in
the Big Country. Will continue to monitor for possible advisory.

In general, VFR conditions will prevail across area terminals
through Tuesday evening. Some brief MVFR cigs developed on Monday
morning across the southern terminals and may see a repeat around
sunrise this morning at KJCT and KSOA, but anything that develops
should remain limited. Otherwise, south to southeast winds will
prevail and will continue to be gusty at times during daylight
hours.
