KEY MESSAGES
- ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND DRY WEATHER THROUGH THE WEEK.
SHORT TERM
(TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1220 PM CST SUN FEB 15 2026
AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS BUILDING OVER TX BRINGING NORTHWESTERLY
FLOW. SURFACE WINDS ARE FROM THE NORTH-NORTHWEST BRINGING COOLER
AND MUCH DRIER AIR. TEMPERATURES ARE 2-5 DEGREES LOWER THAN 24
HOURS AGO. DEWPOINTS ARE 15-20 DEGREES LOWER. SURFACE WINDS WILL
DECREASE TONIGHT AND COMBINED WITH MAINLY CLEAR SKIES WILL RESULT
IN A CHILLY START TO THE NEW WORK WEEK. LOWS MONDAY MORNING WILL
BE MOSTLY IN THE 40S ACROSS OUR CWA. IT'S ALL UPHILL FROM THERE.
THE UPPER RIDGE WILL MOVE SLOWLY TOWARD THE EAST KEEPING SKIES
MAINLY CLEAR FOR THE SHORT TERM. AT THE SAME TIME THE LOW LEVEL
FLOW WILL TURN AROUND TO THE SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST. TEMPERATURES WILL
WARM THROUGH THE REST OF THE PERIOD.
LONG TERM
(TUESDAY THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1220 PM CST SUN FEB 15 2026
THE UPPER RIDGE WILL DOMINATE INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK AS IT
CONTINUES TO DRIFT SLOWLY TO THE EAST. UPPER FLOW WILL TURN FROM
SOUTHWESTERLY TO WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY. THIS WILL KEEP THE WEATHER
DRY THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD. THE FORECAST PROBLEM WILL BE THE
TEMPERATURES. HIGHS WILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL INTO THE MIDDLE PART
OF THE WEEK. RECORDS ARE SURPRISINGLY HIGH FOR THESE DAYS AND THE
FORECAST MID-80S ARE NOT CLOSE. STILL, IT WILL BE UNUSUALLY WARM.
A PACIFIC COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION FRIDAY. WE DON'T
HAVE ANY RAIN IN THE FORECAST, BUT COOLER AIR WILL MOVE IN BEHIND
THE FRONT BRINGING TEMPERATURES DOWN SLIGHTLY FOR FRIDAY AND MORE
SIGNIFICANTLY FOR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.
