424 FXUS64 KSJT 251805 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 105 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025 ...New LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Dry conditions into this weekend, with near to slightly above normal temperatures. - Low rain chances return to the area early next week. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Thursday) Issued at 1258 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025 Persistent south to southeasterly flow continues across West Central Texas through tonight, becoming light by later this evening and into the early morning hours Thursday. Continue to expect warm and dry conditions over the next 24 hours. Most recent CAMS are showing a few small isolated showers or thunderstorms developing over the eastern portions of the Heartland and Northwest Hill Country this afternoon and early evening. Therefor, we can not yet rule out any isolated shower or thunderstorm development over our southeastern-most counties this afternoon and early evening. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday night through next Wednesday) Issued at 104 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025 Currently, we have a large trough over the western CONUS, with a strong upper ridge over the eastern half of the U.S. However, there is an upper level low working its way into the southeastern U. S. this afternoon. This upper low will weaken the ridging over the eastern states over the next few days. At the same time, the upper trough over the western U. S. will weaken, eventually being replaced by upper level ridging by Saturday night. This will keep us near normal or slightly warmer through Sunday with little chance for precipitation, other than sea breeze/outflow showers that may remarkably reach as far northwest as Kimble/Mason/San Saba counties during the late afternoon hours. Confidence is too low in this possibility to include a mention in the forecast. The upper level pattern becomes somewhat "muddled" early next week, with upper level ridges centered east and west of us, leaving west central Texas in a relative weakness. This could allow for isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms in our area, but as was mentioned previously, there is still quite a bit of uncertainty associated with any precipitation chances. We will continue to show a 20% to 30% chance for showers and thunderstorms. While highs will still be warm, we may actually cool a few degrees if we do fall within the weakness between upper ridges. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1225 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025 Generally VFR conditions are expected today under breezy southerly winds through this evening. KSOA, KJCT, and KBBD may see another round of MVFR ceilings during the overnight and early morning hours Thursday. Winds are expected to become generally light and variable overnight into early Thursday morning as well. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
