810 FXUS64 KEWX 092329 AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 629 PM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025 ...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. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
