.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 1204 AM CDT Mon Sep 14 2026

Early this morning, skies were clear with temperatures in the upper
70s to low 80s across west central Texas.  A 594dam upper-level
ridge over east Texas continues to be the main feature today and
tonight. This ridge should slide eastward and become centered over
the southeastern US by this evening.  Despite this shift, hot and
dry conditions should continue as west Texas is placed under weak
southwest flow aloft with southerly flow at the surface.
Temperatures today should be well-above normal again with highs in
the mid 90s to around 100.  For reference, the record high at
Abilene for today is 101 degrees, which could be tied or broken yet
again. Lows tonight should be in the mid 70s.
