(Tonight through Wednesday night) Issued at 119 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 An increase in moisture is seen this afternoon ahead of the main cold front currently draped across North Texas which will bring low rain chances to the area through tomorrow. Rain amounts will be light with the HREF only showing a few isolated locations with more than a 25 percent chance for rain totals greater than 0.25". For many, dry weather under partly cloudy skies will continue. The cold front will slowly move south today before stalling this evening. It could reach into the northern Hill Country and I-35 corridor early Wednesday morning and stall near that area through the day. Models do continue some low rain chances on Wednesday favored in the west along the Rio Grande and over the southern half of the CWA. Showers or an isolated thunderstorm would be spotty again this day with mainly dry conditions. Temperatures both today and Wednesday remain on the warm side with highs ranging from the mid 80s to mid 90s and lows from the mid 60s to low 70s. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday through next Tuesday) Issued at 119 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 An upper level ridge will continue a warm and dry forecast through the long term period. Highs each afternoon will continue to be above normal mainly in the upper 80s to low 90s. Drier air moves into the area Friday into the weekend which will allow for some cooler morning lows each night. Increasing moisture early next week brings lows back up into the 60s for most locations. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 119 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 Primary concerns for this TAF period revolve around the timing of northeasterly winds behind a weak cold front moving into the region early this afternoon. Some SHRA is possible along with some VCTS but opted to keep any precip out of the forecast as confidence in coverage is low, with less than a 20% chance for most locations. A FEW/SCT layer will persist between 2.5k and 7k feet through the day today. Tonight, expect VFR ceilings with cooler and slightly drier air behind the front. Winds will remain northeasterly through the period. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
