.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 1226 AM CDT Mon Aug 24 2026

An upper level ridge remains centered over west Texas and
southeastern New Mexico tonight. This will keep our weather hot
and dry for the next 24 hours, and nearly identical to the past
few days, with maybe a warming of a degree or two in a few
locations. The other difference we might see is a slight uptick in
wind speeds. Otherwise, temperatures will again range from the
upper 90s to near 110 degrees. The hottest temperatures are
expected in the Big Country, where we could see readings of 110+
degrees this afternoon. With those temperatures, an Extreme Heat
Warning was issued, which will be in effect this afternoon through
early evening. A Heat Advisory will also remain in effect for the
Concho Valley and Heartland.
