401 FXUS64 KEWX 071936 AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 236 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Tuesday night) Issued at 141 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 Key Message: - Gradual warming trend continues. Tonight expect lows to not be nearly as cold as last nights. Lows are expected to generally be in the low to mid 40s with the exception being over the Hill Country where mid to upper 30s are expected. High pressure moves east off the coast for Tuesday which results in the return of southerly flow for us. Warmer highs can be expected on Tuesday with upper 70s to near 80 east and mid to upper 80s along the Rio Grande Plains. Lows Tuesday will be even warmer then tonights as most locations will drop down to the 50s. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday through Monday) Issued at 141 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 Key Message: - Above normal temperatures and dry weather into early next week. Gusty south winds will be intact on Wednesday and this will aid in boosting afternoon highs into the lower 80s to lower 90s. South winds continue, but will ease a little on Thursday as a cold front approaches form the north. The low-level thermal ridge will peak just ahead of the front and expect highs in the mid 80s to mid 90s for most locations. A few spots across the Rio Grande plains south of Eagle Pass will be near 100 degrees. The above mentioned cold front will drop southward through the region Thursday evening, with high temperatures easing back into the lower 80s to lower 90s on Friday. For the upcoming weekend into early next week, southerly flow in the lower-levels will remain intact, with gusty winds expected during the afternoon and evening hours. Temperatures will remain above normal through the period, along with dry conditions. There is some hint of increasing southwest flow aloft early next week as the dryline sharpens across west Texas. We will keep the forecast dry at this time, but will monitor for some possibility of convection across our western areas. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1159 AM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 VFR conditions are expected throughout the period under mostly clear skies. Northerly winds expected through this afternoon but stays below 12 knots. Light and variable wind returns tonight into Tuesday morning before southerly winds return by the end of the forecast period for KDRT and KSSF and by 18Z KSAT and KAUS. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
