.KEY MESSAGES...

- Hot and mainly dry conditions will continue again today.

  this afternoon and evening.

  next week, with daily highs less hot but more likely staying

.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 237 AM CDT Sat Sep 19 2026

Upper level high pressure will be centered over east Texas through
tonight, with West Central Texas remaining on the western
periphery of the upper high. Temperatures will remain above
normal again today, with afternoon highs in the mid to upper 90s,
with a few readings reaching 100 degrees across the Big Country.
Cannot rule out an isolated shower or thunderstorm over far
western counties late this afternoon and evening, but most, if not
all of the convection should remain west of the area today. Warm
conditions will prevail again tonight, with overnight lows in the
70s.

.LONG TERM...
(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 1257 AM CDT Sat Sep 19 2026

By Sunday and Monday, a couple of embedded disturbances aloft
will cruise through the region. This will act to weaken the ridge
and allow for a medium chance (30-50%) for rain. An isolated
strong to severe thunderstorm cannot be completely ruled out
across the northern Big Country on Sunday afternoon and evening.
The main hazards would be large hail (1" diameter) and damaging
winds (60-70 MPH). Otherwise, a weak cold frontal boundary may be
just strong enough to drop temperatures a few degrees early next
week. By Tuesday, we may see highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s.

evening across the Trans-Pecos region and Permian Basin, but
should remain west of the TAF sites.
