DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1213 PM CDT SAT AUG 16 2025
THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL US WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT
WEST EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL ALLOW AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW TO
DEVELOP OVER EAST TEXAS THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. SUBSIDENCE
ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RIDGE WILL HELP SUPPRESS RAIN CHANCES
THROUGH MONDAY. AS THE RIDGE SHIFTS WESTWARD, RAIN CHANCES WILL
BEGIN TO INCREASE AS DAILY ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE SEA BREEZE. INCREASED FORCING WILL LEAD TO
A FURTHER INCREASE IN RAIN CHANCES TO 40-50% DURING THE LATER HALF
OF THE WEEK.
HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 90S TO LOW 100S WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE THROUGH MID WEEK, WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER TEMPERATURES AS
CLOUD COVER INCREASES LATER IN THE WEEK. HEAT INDICES LOOK TO
LARGELY REMAIN BELOW 108, THOUGH THEY MAY BRIEFLY PEAK ABOVE 111
EARLY IN THE WEEK. THE SHORT DURATION OF THESE HIGHER HEAT INDICES
LIKELY WON’T WARRANT HEAT ADVISORIES.
