081 FXUS64 KSJT 240714 AFDSJT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 114 AM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 ...New LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Rain chances will continue tonight, with the potential for heavy rainfall and a few strong storms across the area. - A Flood Watch is in effect for the Concho Valley and much of the Heartland and Big Country through 8 AM Monday. - A cold front will bring cooler temperatures for Wednesday, with highs in the 50s. && .SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 1247 AM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 Currently, showers and thunderstorms are developing from Abilene southwestward into the western Concho Valley and northern Edwards Plateau. Large scale ascent ahead of a potent shortwave over the Big Bend combined with strong shear and moderate instability will lead to continued storm development overnight. Isolated large hail will continue to be a concern with the strongest storms along with locally heavy rainfall and flash flooding. All of this activity should exit our area by the late morning as a Pacific front sweeps across the area. Skies will clear in the afternoon with temperatures warming into the mid to upper 70s. Lows will drop into the 40s, with some of the river valleys and sheltered areas in our southern counties dropping into the upper 30s. && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 111 AM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 A cold front will move through the area late Tuesday into Wednesday. The atmosphere looks too dry to support any rain chances with the front at this time. However, it will bring cooler temperatures and breezy northeast winds. Highs are forecast to drop into the low 50s to low 60s for Wednesday afternoon. Winds will switch back to the southeast for Thursday with weak ridging aloft, causing highs to warm a few degrees for both Thursday and Friday. The weather for Thanksgiving looks nice, with highs in the 60s, partly cloudy skies, and winds around 10 mph from the south. Our next chance for rain enters the forecast late Friday into Saturday as another trough sets up over the southwest U.S. and a front approaches from the north. There`s still quite a bit of uncertainty with this system this far out, but right now the best chance for rain looks to be to our east. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1144 PM CST Sun Nov 23 2025 Showers and thunderstorms will increase through the overnight hours, especially at KABI and KSJT. Outside of these storms, IFR ceilings and patchy mist can be expected. Storms will clear the TAF sites by the mid morning hours. Ceilings will gradually improve to VFR by the late morning hours as winds become westerly. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
