309 FXUS64 KFWD 190734 AFDFWD Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fort Worth TX 234 AM CDT Thu Jun 19 2025 ...New Long Term... .KEY MESSAGES... - Seasonably hot and humid conditions are forecast into early next week with little chance for rainfall. && .SHORT TERM... /Issued 1119 PM CDT Wed Jun 18 2025/ /Overnight through Friday Night/ Convection that developed off to the northwest this evening has quickly diminished leaving behind only some remnant cloud debris. With any mid level forcing now pulling off to the east of the area, expect things to remain mostly quiet for the rest of the night. There is still some low potential (~10%) that a storm could develop in the next several hours near the Red River given a modestly unstable and weakly capped environment, but chances are dwindling as mid level ridging continue to nose into the Southern Plains. Outside of this isolated possibility, mostly clear skies and warm conditions will persist tonight. Mid level ridging will expand into the Southern Plains on Thursday and keep things quiet through the end of the week. We`ll see highs in the mid to upper 90s with near zero chance for rainfall. Southerly winds 10-15 mph will continue through Friday. Dunn && .LONG TERM... /NEW/ /Saturday through Wednesday/ North Texas will be on the western periphery of a strong mid level ridge over the weekend and into next week. This will effectively keep a lid on convective chances leading to seasonably hot and humid conditions. Highs will top out in the mid 90s each afternoon with heat indices between 100-105 degrees. Isolated sea breeze convection across southeast Texas may make daily runs at our southeast counties, but it doesn`t look like we`ll see any increase in overall rain chances until the latter part of next week. Dunn && .AVIATION... /Issued 1119 PM CDT Wed Jun 18 2025/ /6Z TAFs/ VFR will prevail through much of the night with some passing high clouds this evening. Some stratus is expected to develop in the Hill Country and will likely spread north through ACT over the next several hours. We`ll continue a brief TEMPO at GKY/DAL/DFW for stratus after sunrise, but otherwise VFR will prevail through the day Thursday with south winds 10-15 kt. Dunn && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected at this time. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... Dallas-Ft.
