New Short Term, Aviation
SHORT TERM
/NEW/ /Through Thursday Evening/
Scattered rain showers with the occasional isolated thunderstorm will continue across portions of North and Central Texas through this evening. Precipitation is associated with a combination of wrap-around moisture from recent land-falling Hurricane Francine and a weak upper low near the Arklatex region. Activity near and west of I-35 will dissipate with the loss of surface instability, confining rain showers to the eastern third of the region late this evening through the overnight hours. Will continue to carry low POPs into early Thursday, though overall rain chances will be dropping as the upper low moves east and Francine lifts northeast. The upper low will eventually become collocated with Francine on Thursday. Together the systems will move north- northeast, ending our rain chances from southwest to northeast Thursday late morning through the afternoon.
Temperatures have been held in the 70s this afternoon across the eastern-most counties by thick cloud cover and persistent light rain. A shift to light north winds will create a slight downward trend in dewpoints overnight, allowing temperatures to fall into the 60s across pretty much all of the forecast area for Thursday morning lows. A warmer day is in store for Thursday across the eastern counties where highs will climb well into the 80s, similar to the rest of the forecast area.

LONG TERM
/Issued 233 PM CDT Wed Sep 11 2024/ Update: No significant changes in the long-term period as the return of summer temperatures take the main headlines. A heating trend will start on Friday and peak over the weekend where high temperatures will reach the upper 90s to around 102 degrees. A more stable pattern will dominate over the next several days as a ridge builds over the region in between an upper trough to our west and the remnants of Francine. See the discussion below for more details including the potential for some fire weather concerns late next week.

Previous Discussion: /Thursday Night Onward/
Key Messages:
- Weekend temperatures will be well above normal for this time of the year.
- Confidence in a prolonged heatwave lasting through at least next weekend is increasing. Heat coupled with gusty southwesterly winds may contribute to a slight uptick in fire weather concerns mid to late next week.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Francine's influence will quickly be diminishing as we head into the weekend with the arrival of high pressure into the Southern Plains. This high pressure will translate into well above normal temperatures this weekend, especially on Saturday.
Highs on Saturday will be in the mid 90s to around 100 degrees across the entire region. A few factors that will contribute to the hot conditions will be the near record hot temperatures about 4,000 feet above us. Additionally, strong cyclogenesis along the Front Range in Colorado will turn our winds out of the southwest between 10 to 15 mph. With southwesterly winds in place, compressional warming as the parcel descends will add a few degrees to our afternoon temperatures. The combination of the hot temperatures and moisture in place will yield heat index values that approach 104 degrees.
Sunday is unlikely to be as hot as Saturday, however, temperatures will still be in the mid to upper 90s with heat index values up to 102 degrees.
Heading into next week, much of the guidance has backed off on a potential West Coast trough sending impulses into the Southern Plains. Instead, we'll likely have to contend with strong ridging, prolonging the duration of the well above normal temperatures. At this time, precipitation chances remain below 10% through next weekend.

/NEW/ /00Z TAFs/
Occasional rain showers will dissipate shortly with the loss of surface instability, and any additional convection should remain east of all TAF sites tonight. MVFR cigs will be quick to develop this evening, spreading west over all TAF sites around 03-04Z this evening. Cigs should scatter in the Metroplex around 10-12Z as drier air enters from the north, but may linger through 15-16Z at KACT. Northeast winds will shift to the north overnight with speeds of 5 to 7 kt.
