302 AM CDT Sat Apr 20 2019

.SHORT TERM (Today through Sunday)...
Another pleasant day in store today as high pressure ridging glides
across Texas. Slightly warmer today with highs in the low to mid 80s
and lows tonight in the upper 50s across the region. Winds will turn
back out of the south today and moisture returns by Sunday. Similar
conditions are expected on Sunday with fair skies and mild
temperatures.

&&

.LONG TERM (Sunday Night through Friday)...
The clouds return on Monday and by Tuesday night rain chances are
back in the forecast as deepening trough axis approaches from the
west. As the trough progresses eastward, widespread rain chances on
Wednesday for much of South Central Texas. The models have
consistently painted varying degrees of higher QPF amounts over the
area, so chances for potentially locally heavy rain are increasing.
It is still too soon to pinpoint where where these pockets of locally
heavy rain will fall and amounts. Models have trended a quicker
progression of the trough so rain chances should clear by Thursday
with only residual showers in our eastern counties. By the end of the
week, clear and dry weather returns in time for the weekend.
