657 FXUS64 KEWX 071127 AAA AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 627 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 ...New AVIATION (12Z TAFS)... .SHORT TERM... (Today through Sunday) Issued at 141 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 Key Message: - Hot and humid conditions today and Sunday could result in Heat Advisories for parts of South Central Texas. Regional satellite imagery shows the center of a 594dm Subtropical Ridge over south Texas. This ridge will build northward today through Sunday, leading to hot and humid conditions across all of South Central Texas. Afternoon highs in the mid to upper 90s outside of the Rio Grande Plains, and highs in the 100-108 range over the Rio Grande Plains. Factoring in dewpoints in the upper 60s to mid 70s, it`ll feel like between 103-113 at times, particularly on Sunday. Fortunately, we won`t have to wait long for relief, as rain chances increase in the long term period. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday night through Friday) Issued at 141 AM CDT Sat Jun 7 2025 Key messages: - Heat Advisory possible for parts of the area Monday - Rounds of showers and thunderstorms Monday Through Friday The Subtropical Ridge drifts to the southwest as the lower level thermal ridge weakens slightly by Monday. While temperatures and heat index values decrease slightly most areas, Heat Advisory level heat index values remain closer to the Coastal Plains and across the Winter Garden. Thus, a Heat Advisory is possible for those areas. An outflow boundary from storms over northern Texas may move into the Edwards Plateau, Hill Country, and our Central Texas counties late Sunday night into Monday. This could generate isolated showers and thunderstorms there. This would also provide some extra "cooling" Monday afternoon there. Short-waves rotating around an upper level trough and surface boundaries from convection interacting with a moist airmass maintain chances for rounds of showers and thunderstorms Monday night through Friday. The greatest chances are Tuesday night through Thursday as the upper level trough moves over the southern Plains. Moderate instability indicates a potential for a few strong to severe storms. An unseasonably moist airmass with moisture pooling along the boundaries and cells repeating over the same areas or moving slowly also indicate a potential for heavy rains. With heavy rains and some flooding of late, runoff should be more rapid making for an increased flooding threat. The heaviest rains are expected Tuesday night through Thursday. Expect POPs to be fine tuned as mesoscale influences take hold. The increased clouds and periods of rain "cool" off temperatures to near average with below average highs possible mid week. && .AVIATION...
