120 FXUS64 KSJT 261839 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 139 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 ...New LONG TERM... .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. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 107 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 VFR expected for the next 24 hours with no significant aviation concerns. SCT low clouds may make it to JCT, SOA briefly Thursday morning, but should quickly dissipate after sunrise. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
