SHORT TERM
 
/NEW/  
/THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/  
 
IN THE WAKE OF TODAY'S COLD FRONT, BREEZY NORTHERLY WINDS WILL  
CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT HELPING TO ADVECT COOLER AIR INTO OUR  
REGION. EARLY MONDAY MORNING TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE 20S FOR A  
LARGE PORTION OF NORTH AND CENTRAL TEXAS WITH LOWER 30S LIMITED TO  
AREAS SOUTH OF A WACO TO CORSICANA LINE.  
 
WITH CONTINUED WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION TOMORROW, HIGHS ACROSS  
NORTH TEXAS WILL STAY IN THE 40S WITH LOWER 50S ACROSS CENTRAL  
TEXAS. GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF THE SURFACE HIGH, WINDS TOMORROW  
WILL REMAIN BETWEEN 5-10 MPH. THE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL  
SLOWLY MIGRATE EAST MONDAY NIGHT, HELPING TO TURN OUR WINDS OUT  
OF THE SOUTHEAST BY SUNRISE TUESDAY. AS SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURN, A  
WARMING TREND CAN BE EXPECTED THE REST OF THE WEEK. MORE DETAILS  
CAN BE FOUND IN THE LONG TERM DISCUSSION BELOW.

LONG TERM
 
/ISSUED 114 PM CST SUN JAN 12 2025/  
/MONDAY NIGHT ONWARD/  
 
TEMPERATURES WILL BEGIN TO MODERATE ON TUESDAY AS SOUTHERLY WINDS  
RETURN. A WARMING TREND IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK,  
WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES LARGELY RETURNING TO THE 60S ON THURSDAY.  
FRIDAY WILL BE THE WARMEST DAY WITH SOME LOCATIONS WARMING INTO  
THE LOW 70S. WE'LL CONTINUE TO SEE COOL MORNINGS EACH DAY AS  
MOISTURE REMAINS SCOURED BEHIND SUNDAY'S COLD FRONT. SUB-FREEZING  
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED FOR MOST LOCATIONS MONDAY NIGHT AND  
TUESDAY NIGHT, BUT WILL BECOME LESS COMMON BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  
 
LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN ON FRIDAY AS A POWERFUL SYSTEM  
DIVES INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. RAIN CHANCES WILL RETURN AHEAD OF  
A STRONG COLD FRONT ON FRIDAY, WITH THE FRONT EXPECTED TO ARRIVE  
EARLY NEXT WEEKEND. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT ANOTHER BLAST OF  
ARCTIC AIR WILL ARRIVE BEHIND THE FRONT, ALLOWING MUCH COLDER  
TEMPERATURES TO RETURN TO THE REGION. THERE ARE SOME INDICATIONS  
THAT WE MAY HAVE PRECIPITATION CHANCES BEHIND THIS FRONT, BUT  
LOCATION, TIMING, AND WHETHER THIS WILL ENTAIL ANOTHER CHANCE FOR  
WINTRY PRECIPITATION ARE ALL UP IN THE AIR AT THIS TIME. ENSURE  
YOU MONITOR THE FORECAST FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION THROUGHOUT THE  
WEEK.
