New AVIATION
SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Friday night)
Issued at 225 PM CDT Thu Sep 12 2024
Scattered cumulus clouds are noted on the latest visible satellite imagery. Radar data even shows a few light echoes across portions of the Rio Grande plains into the Winter Garden region. Suspect a few light showers will continue through late afternoon and we have updated the forecast for the current radar trends.
For tonight, look for mostly clear skies and light winds along with overnight lows in the mid 60s to mid 70s. We could see some low clouds develop toward sunrise from near the Rio Grande into the Hill Country. Moisture in the lower levels is not terribly impressive, so will not be too aggressive with the cloud cover at this time. Expect warm afternoon temperatures again on Friday, with highs ranging from the mid 90s to near 102 degrees. A record high still appears plausible at Del Rio, but residual soil moisture from the healthy rains in early September could keep highs a little lower than the current forecast. For Friday evening into the overnight hours, we should see a gradual increase in mid and upper level cloud cover move in from the southwest. Overnight lows will trend upward, with most areas in the 70s.
LONG TERM
(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 225 PM CDT Thu Sep 12 2024
Hot and dry conditions are expected at the start of the long term period. Temperatures should warm to some 5-10 degree above normal for mid-September on Saturday. Mid to upper 90s look like a strong bet, along with limited cloud cover. Heat indices shouldn't get too much out of control though, mainly in the 100-105 range by Saturday afternoon. The remnants of Tropical Depression Francine look to meander about in a weak mid-level flow pattern through the start of next week. This will keep things dry at the local level through early next week.
Temperatures won't change much through the long term period, but we may see some precip work its way back into the forecast as early as Sunday afternoon as a weak disturbance slides through South Central Texas, which could be somewhat tied to the remnants of what is now a tropical depression over the eastern Pacific. We'll have to wait and see how much moisture is left over from this system in the mid- levels to know if any sort of meaningful rainfall can be squeezed out of. In any matter, rain chances aren't particularly high as surface moisture won't be all that impressive, and there won't be much of a surface boundary to focus convection along. Any precip associated with these remnants should be gone by Tuesday when more sea breeze and after shower activity attempts to ramp up over the Coastal Plains Tuesday-Wednesday.
By late next week, there are signs from global models that a rather powerful trough will dig southward into the Four Corners. This could bring some slightly cooler temperatures and increased rain chances by next weekend. For now, things remain dry.
