Minor mid-level wave brought some much needed rain to portions of
western north Texas today. This wave will continue to move south this
evening and weaken. Residual cloud cover will also shift south, with
mainly clear skies expected overnight. Relatively dry air remains in
place and with the clear skies and light winds, temperatures will
once again fall into the 60s.
South winds return Wednesday with sunny skies. Upper ridge begins to
build back east with some warming in the lower levels. This will
allow temperatures to quickly rebound into the upper 80s and lower
90s by Wednesday afternoon.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 225 PM CDT Tue Jun 28 2022
Dry again Thursday with temperatures continuing to warm. Afternoon
highs are expected to reach the 90s to near 100 across the area.
These temperatures will be at or slightly above average for this
time of year. Temperatures will then remain fairly similar through
the weekend before becoming hotter early next week when triple digit
highs will be possible in many locations.
Models continue to show a shortwave moving across the central Plains
late this week with a front at least approaching, if not, moving
into parts of the fa Friday into the weekend. Meanwhile, moisture
will increase across much of the area late this week into the
weekend with 70s dewpoints possible in parts of the fa. Models also
show a disturbance coming out of the Gulf of Mexico and moving
across portions of TX, approaching the fa. All these features will
bring a chance for showers and thunderstorms to parts of the fa
starting Friday evening and continuing through the weekend. However,
there is some uncertainty that depends on if the front moves into
the area or not and how far. There is also a question of the path of
the disturbance coming out of the Gulf and how much it will be able
to affect the area.
