911 FXUS64 KLUB 072007 AFDLUB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lubbock TX 307 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Chilly tonight with areas of frost possible. - Warm, dry, and breezy conditions through mid-week with a brief cool down expected Thursday and Friday behind a passing front. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Tuesday) Issued at 206 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 Quiet and pleasant weather remains the theme through Tuesday underneath anticyclonic NW flow. Lee troughing will become more defined tomorrow and secure 15-20 mph SW winds for the whole forecast area. These downslope winds along with rising thicknesses show good support for highs in the upper 70s to near 80. Other than boosting NBM`s winds up a couple knots for tomorrow and lowering temps a bit over the rapidly-shrinking snowpack in/near Silverton, no other changes were necessary. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through next Sunday) Issued at 206 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025 A ridge will continue to build across the southwest throughout much of the week. An upper-level disturbance will ride the outskirts of the ridge across the northern United States and exit the east coast by the weekend. Surface winds will increase out of the southwest bringing warmer temperatures for Tuesday and Wednesday. As an area of low pressure moves across the central plains, winds will become northerly on Wednesday afternoon as a weak cold front passes by resulting in cooler highs for Thursday and Friday. The ridge continues to influence our weather through the weekend with slightly breezier and warmer weather once again. && .AVIATION...
