SHORT TERM
(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 114 PM CDT SUN SEP 7 2025
HIGH PRESSURE WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPERATURES AND A MUCH DRIER
AIR MASS HAS PUSHED THROUGH THE AREA WITH THE ASSOCIATED FRONT
LYING JUST OFFSHORE ACROSS GULF WATERS. IT IS STILL SEPTEMBER, SO
TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 80S TO 90 ARE NOT UNEXPECTED. HOWEVER,
THE AIR IS DRY ENOUGH THAT RH WILL FALL INTO THE 40-50% RANGE
DURING THE DAY TOMORROW ON THE NORTHSHORE. THE LOW TEMPS TONIGHT
WILL BE IN THE LOW 60S ALONG AND NORTH OF THE I-10/12 CORRIDOR AND
IN THE LOW 70 SOUTH; AND FOR TOMORROW NIGHT IN THE UPPER 60S AND
MID 70S. IT WILL BE BREEZY WITH WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH TO
NORTHEAST UP TO 10-12 MPH.
LONG TERM
(TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 114 PM CDT SUN SEP 7 2025
THROUGH THE WORKWEEK, WE CAN EXPECT TO SEE GENERALLY THE SAME
CONDITIONS AS WE HAVE IN THE SHORT TERM. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE AREA GENERALLY THROUGH THE WEEKEND
BRINGING SEASONABLE DAYTIME TEMPERATURES AROUND 90 AND OVERNIGHT
LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S, BUT RELATIVELY DRY AIR. THERE
DOES APPEAR TO BE A BIT OF MOISTURE RETURN DURING THE DAY ON
TUESDAY WITH POPS AROUND 40% ALONG THE COAST AND DECREASING
INLAND, SO CAN'T RULE OUT A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM. GENERALLY,
WINDS WILL BE NORTHEASTERLY TO EASTERLY.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 1227 PM CDT SUN SEP 7 2025
WITH A VERY BENIGN PATTERN DOMINATED BY DRY AIR BEHIND A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY, ALL TERMINALS ARE VFR AND ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN SO FOR
THE DURATION OF THE PERIOD. THE ONLY CONCERN OF NOTE, AND NOT A
BIG ONE, IS THE POSSIBILITY OF WINDS GUSTING FROM 15-20KT IN THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND 6AM. /DSS/
