High pressure continues to slowly build back over West Central
Texas, which will generally bring warmer and drier conditions to
the area. Mostly to partly cloudy skies will clear out through
this morning, with high temperatures warming into the 90s this
afternoon. Warmest temperatures in the mid to upper 90s are
expected across the Big Country and Concho Valley this afternoon,
with overnight lows falling into the upper 60s to mid 70s.

(Sunday night through next Saturday)
Issued at 135 PM CDT Sat Jun 22 2024

A building 500mb ridge will be the main feature driving weather
conditions throughout next week.  The ridge should build in over
Texas with heights topping out at 592 dam, while 850mb temperatures
look to be in the 18-22 deg C range, pushing to 24 deg C by midweek.
As a result, afternoon temperatures are expected to be in the upper
90s to around 100 to start the week, then reach the 100-105 degree
range from Wednesday onward.  Southerly surface flow should also
keep humidity levels up, with dewpoints of 65-70 expected. Overnight
lows will likely be in the upper 70s due to the muggy conditions.
One potential limiting factor, given the steady low-level moisture,
could be lingering cloud cover from nightly stratus decks that may
occur from the Concho Valley southward.  These areas could end up
being several degrees cooler than areas north of the Concho Valley.
