.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 303 AM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024

The upper level ridge is currently centered over southern
Colorado and northern New Mexico early this morning. This ridge
will remain in place, and possibly even slightly expand somewhat
to the southeast. This will keep rain chances out of the forecast
for our area today, and warm temperatures a 2-3 degrees across the
area. We could see a few morning low clouds mainly south of
Interstate 20, but these should scatter out by mid to late
morning. Otherwise, expect a few upper level clouds, highs in the
mid 90s to around 100 degrees, and southerly winds 5 to 15 mph.
Tonight, south/southeast winds will diminish to 5 to 10 mph, with
lows mainly in the low to mid 70s.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday night through next Sunday)
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024


Very warm temperatures will continue Tuesday and Wednesday, as a
lee trough brings south to south winds, and allows highs in the
97 to 103 degree range. The warmest readings will be in the Concho
Valley and Big Country. Temperatures should be just below heat
advisory criteria of 105 degrees.

Upper ridging over the Southwest United States will build
northward the second half of the week, bringing West Central Texas
under an upper trough, and giving the region a chance of showers
and thunderstorms. A weak cold front may also move in Thursday
bringing in some low level lift and help with storm development.
