.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 252 AM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024

Temperatures continue to creep up across West Central Texas, but
in addition, the continued southeast flow off the Gulf Of Mexico
is bringing in better low level moisture. After dewpoints dropped
down in the upper 50s and lower 60s on Monday afternoon, they
stayed in the mid and upper 60s on Tuesday afternoon and are
forecasted to remain in the upper 60s to near 70 forecasted this
afternoon. These readings will push Heat INdex values into the 105
to 108 range across much of the area and have therefore expanded
the Heat Advisory across much more of the area for this afternoon.

Otherwise, forecasted highs today will be near or maybe a degree
or two hotter than what we saw on Tuesday. With this much moisture
in place, overnight lows will struggle to drop much below the 80
degree mark.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through next Wednesday)
Issued at 138 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024

An upper level ridge will continue to dominate the weather across
West Central Texas through early next week. This will result in
mainly dry conditions along with above normal temperatures. Highs
Friday into early next week will be in the upper 90s to 104, with
overnight lows in the 70s to near 80. A weak cold front will move
into Oklahoma late Saturday into Sunday. This front is forecast to
stall near the Red River, keeping any rain chances north of the
forecast area.
