...New AVIATION...

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday night)
Issued at 159 PM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025

Breezy southerly winds and crystal clear skies are in control this
afternoon as temperatures climb into the upper 80s to middle 90s.
Despite minimum relative humidities in the 10-20% percent range,
fire weather conditions should remain minimal as the higher wind
speeds will remain over the eastern CWA, rather than the western CWA
where those lower humidities are occurring. Similar conditions are
expected Thursday, but wind speeds should be less than 10 mph across
the entire region, limiting fire weather concerns. Expect
temperatures back in the 90s for all locations with a few spots
along the Rio Grande approaching the century mark. Overnight
temperatures will remain rather comfortable with lows in the 50s and
60s tonight and again Thursday night.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 159 PM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025

Surface high pressure behind a weak cold front will temporarily drop
temperatures back a few degrees compared to Thursday. Despite the
cooling, we still expect temperatures to remain above normal on
Friday, with highs ranging from the mid 80s to the lower 90s.
Southerly flow in the lower-levels will resume Saturday as surface
high pressure moves east and a surface low develops over the central
plains. Winds will be gusty across most of the region beginning
Saturday and continuing through Monday. Temperatures will also remain
above normal and we have trended the forecast toward the warmer side
of guidance. The medium range models show another cold front moving
into the region either late Monday or early Tuesday and this will
help knock temperatures down several degrees for Tuesday into
Wednesday. Unfortunately, the models continue to show dry weather
prevailing through the current forecast period as we wait to see if
an upper level low will eventually approach from the west.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 626 PM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025

Clear skies will continue through the TAF periods. Light to moderate
SE to SSW winds will sway in direction depending on how much daytime
mixing interacts with eleveated winds.
