077 FXUS64 KSJT 230409 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 1009 PM CST Sat Nov 22 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... - Another round of thunderstorms and the potential for heavy rainfall is expected from Sunday through Monday morning. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Sunday) Issued at 100 PM CST Sat Nov 22 2025 Highs this afternoon will be near seasonal normals, in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Fairly light winds are also forecast, resulting in a pleasant Saturday afternoon. By this evening, an upper level low across northern Mexico will track northeast into Arizona. Although an isolated shower is possible after midnight, mostly dry conditions are forecast overnight. Overnight lows will be in the mid 40s to lower 50s. The aforementioned upper level low is forecast to track toward the Four Corners region by afternoon. Ahead of this system, surface moisture is forecast to quickly increase across the forecast area with dewpoints climbing into the mid 50s to lower 60s. Scattered to numerous showers are forecast to develop by mid to late morning, with the highest rain chances across the northern half of the area. Although a few strong to severe thunderstorms are possible during the afternoon, the higher threat for severe weather will occur during the evening and overnight hours. Highs on Sunday will be in the mid 60s to near 70. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday night through next Saturday) Issued at 100 PM CST Sat Nov 22 2025 The previously mentioned low pressure system will continue moving across the region on Sunday night. As it continues to move east, a frontal boundary will serve as a focal point for thunderstorm development. Chances are high (80-90%) that we will see thunderstorms Sunday night. The Storm Prediction Center has placed most of our area in a Marginal Risk for Severe Weather through Monday morning. Large hail (up to 1" diameter) will be the main hazard with any severe thunderstorms that do develop. Any cells that become severe should be isolated and remain limited in duration (short lived). Otherwise, we will also have to contend with potentially heavy rainfall. Areas across the Concho Valley and Big Country have a high (75-85%) chance for seeing at least 1" of rainfall. This will leave us with a Slight Risk (15 to 40% chance) of seeing excessive rainfall leading to flash flooding on Sunday night and Monday morning. Areas that have already seen previous rainfall will be most at risk of seeing flood related concerns. Please make sure to have multiple ways to receive any warnings that may be issued during this time frame. Otherwise, another strong cold front may move through on Wednesday morning. This could leave high temperatures in the 50s for Wednesday afternoon. Some low lying areas may be around 30-33 degrees Thanksgiving morning. For Thanksgiving Day, dry conditions with highs in the low to mid 60s are forecast. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1008 PM CST Sat Nov 22 2025 Ceilings will gradually lower through the next 24 hours, with conditions dropping from VFR to MVFR and eventually IFR. The timing of these transitions varies between TAF sites, with KSOA dropping first and KABI and KBBD dropping last. Isolated showers and thunderstorms could develop as early as late this morning. However, higher coverage storms are expected late Sunday afternoon and overnight into Monday morning. Best chance for storms Sunday evening will be at KABI. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
