New Short Term, Aviation
SHORT TERM
/NEW/ /Through Tuesday Night/
Post-frontal weather conditions will take us through the overnight hours into Tuesday. Wind speeds have gradually decreased through the afternoon, becoming light and variable overnight.
Lows tonight will bottom out in the mid to upper 30s, with a few locations out east and along the Red River Valley reaching the freezing mark. Patchy frost will be possible across portions of North and Central Texas, so be sure to protect any plants that you may have outside! Southerly flow will return to the region as we move into the early morning hours tomorrow, with gusts out of the southwest around 15-20 mph. Highs will reach into the mid to upper 60s, with a few locations out west hitting the 70 degree mark.
Temperatures through Tuesday night will fall to around seasonal norms, ranging in the upper 40s to low 50s.

LONG TERM
/Issued 311 PM CDT Mon Mar 18 2024/ /Tuesday Night Onward/
An upper low over the Desert Southwest will bring our next chance of rain as it finally ejects east across the Rockies Tuesday night, into the Texas Panhandle on Wednesday, and through the rest of Texas and Southern Plains Wednesday night and Thursday.
Scattered rain showers will develop Wednesday night as the low approaches the Big Country, with isolated thunderstorms possible by Thursday as the low center moves east along the Red River. The best rain chances will likely end up being along and east of I-35 where Gulf moisture will be most plentiful. That being said, overall moisture will still be limited, with probabilities of receiving half an inch or more of rain remaining below 30 percent.
Thunderstorms will also likely remain isolated due to limited instability, but a few storms will be capable of small hail wherever any pockets of elevated instability exist.
Dry and seasonable weather will return Friday and Saturday as the upper low and all associated precipitation exit to our east. Focus will then shift to the West Coast on Sunday where the next upper trough will be deepening. The trough will be progressive and dynamic, likely bringing a more widespread round of showers and storms (compared to the midweek system) as it makes its approach from the west Sunday night or next Monday. Severe weather potential remains uncertain at this time, but the time of year and the current model solutions indicate that there will be at least a low end chance. We will know more as better resolution guidance arrives later this week.
