.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.
