022 FXUS64 KSJT 151928 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 128 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 ...New LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Record or near record high temperatures through Tuesday. - Rain chances increase Wednesday into Thursday. There`s a marginal risk for excessive rainfall east of a Sweetwater to San Angelo to Junction line. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Sunday) Issued at 1249 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 We are starting to sound like a broken record, but above normal temperatures and dry conditions will continue through the next 24 hours as an upper level ridge continues to dominate the weather across West Central Texas. Highs this afternoon will likely exceed the current daily record highs, with most locations topping out in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Overnight lows will be cool, but well above seasonal normals, in the mid to upper 50s for most locations. Highs on Sunday will be in the mid 80s to near 90 for most locations. A weak front is forecast to stall in the vicinity of the Big Country, so highs across the northern Big Country will be a few degrees lower, in the low 80s. The daily record high for November 16th at Abilene is 86 and 87 at San Angelo. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday night through next Saturday) Issued at 125 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 Our very above normal temperatures will continue through the middle of next week, with temperatures near record values through Tuesday. Large scale upper level lift ahead of a trough to our west will lead to increasing cloud cover and rain chances Wednesday into Thursday. A front will move through the area early Thursday, providing another source of lift for rain across the area. The axis of higher rainfall amounts has been shifting back and forth between model runs, moving between our forecast area to further east in the Fort Worth/Austin area. The location of the heavier rainfall will depend on the speed of the front and trough, a faster front could push the heavier amounts to our east. Right now, West Central Texas has a medium chance (40-70%) of receiving over an inch of rainfall with this event. The highest chances are in our eastern counties. WPC currently has areas east of a Sweetwater to San Angelo to Junction line in a marginal risk for excessive rainfall Wednesday into Thursday morning. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1007 AM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 VFR conditions are forecast through the next 24 hours.
