647 FXUS64 KSJT 280726 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 226 AM CDT Fri Jun 28 2024 ...New LONG TERM... .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Friday) Issued at 154 PM CDT Thu Jun 27 2024 An upper level ridge will continue to dominate the weather across West Central Texas through the next 24 hours, resulting generally dry and hot conditions. An isolated shower or thunderstorms is possible this afternoon, mainly across our eastern counties, but most locations are forecast to remain dry. Otherwise, dry conditions will continue through Friday. Expect overnight lows in the mid 70s to near 80. Highs on Friday will top out in the 104 to 106 range across much of the Concho Valley, Heartland, and Big Country. In addition, heat index values in these locations will top out in the 103 to 108 range so the Heat Advisory has been extended through 7 PM Friday. Elsewhere, expect highs in the upper 90s to near 100, remaining below Heat Advisory criteria. && .LONG TERM... (Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 223 AM CDT Fri Jun 28 2024 Hot and dry conditions will continue into the middle of next week. A weakness in the upper ridge, however, may bring a slight chance of thunderstorms to the Big Country late Thursday...4th of July. On Saturday, high temperatures fall a couple degrees into the upper 90s to 103 range. However, with heat indices still flirting with 105 in the Big Country, Concho Valley and Heartland...the heat advisory may need to be extended. Sunday to Monday, heat advisories may temporarily be lifted as temperatures and heat indices fall yet another degree or two. However, it will remain hot, with highs in the 97 to 102 range. Temperatures and heat indices then increase back to heat advisory criteria, at least for portions of West Central Texas, Tuesday into Thursday. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1241 AM CDT Fri Jun 28 2024 VFR conditions will prevail for the remainder of the TAF period. Winds will become a little gusty late on Friday morning and remain that way until the evening. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
