796 FXUS64 KFWD 160502 AFDFWD Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fort Worth TX 1202 AM CDT Mon Jun 16 2025 ...New Short Term, Aviation... .KEY MESSAGES... - Isolated showers and storms are expected on Monday mainly east of I-35. - Hot and humid conditions are expected this week with low rain chances returning Wednesday night through Saturday. && .SHORT TERM... /NEW/ /Overnight through Tuesday/ Slightly cooler but humid conditions persist across North and Central Texas tonight with ample high cloud cover streaming across the region. The complex of showers/storms that moved through North and Central TX on Sunday effectively used up most of the instability across the region and with only slight recovery expected overnight, we`ll likely remain precipitation free into early Monday morning. The only exception may be our far southeast counties where a trailing outflow boundary may serve as a focus for a few isolated showers. Near calm winds may lead to some patchy fog in some outlying areas. If the high clouds can thin enough, then we may see a little more area impacted by some fog. By Monday morning, mid level ridging will try to expand eastward just a bit. We`ll still remain within modest northerly flow aloft, but the best combination of any forcing for ascent and moisture will be across our far east and southeast counties where we`ll have 20% PoPs. Otherwise, it`ll be quite a bit warmer on Monday with highs climbing into the low/mid 90s and heat indices topping out near 103 degrees. The ridging will expand a little farther east on Tuesday with increasing south/southwest flow above the surface. This will support temperatures in the mid 90s, but deeper mixing may allow dewpoints to fall through the afternoon keeping heat indices in check a bit. No precipitation is expected on Tuesday. Dunn && .LONG TERM... /Issued 200 PM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025/ Update: Little has changed to the long-term forecast. Hot and humid conditions are expected Monday afternoon through at least midweek with a few locations likely approaching Heat Advisory criteria across North Texas. Low rain chances will return to the forecast toward the middle of the week with daily seabreeze activity across our far southeast each afternoon into next weekend. Langfeld Previous Discussion: /Monday Night Onward/ Seasonably warm conditions are expected throughout the upcoming week. Afternoon highs will generally be in the upper 80s to low 90s on a daily basis with warm/muggy mornings in the 70s. A shortwave trough will usher a weak cold front towards the region late Wednesday, resulting in the return of low rain chances Wednesday night into Thursday. Additional low rain chances will linger into the weekend as seabreeze activity makes a run at our southern zones on a daily basis. Barnes && .AVIATION... /NEW/ /6Z TAFs/ VFR prevail at this hour beneath a canopy of thick high clouds with nearly calm winds at the surface. A light south/southwest flow will become established later tonight and generally remain less than 10 kt through the day Monday. There is a low chance for some MVFR cigs in the morning and we`ll handle this with a few hours of TEMPO BKN016 at the major airports. Otherwise, the only immediate concern will be some potential for MVFR vis in areas of fog through the early morning. This will mainly be an issue for outlying areas, but we could see some minor reductions at AFW/FTW and at ACT through mid morning. Dunn && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected at this time. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... Dallas-Ft.
