SHORT TERM
(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 1221 PM CDT SUN AUG 30 2026
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH
MONDAY, RESULTING IN HOT TEMPERATURES AND CONTINUED DRY
CONDITIONS OVER WEST CENTRAL TEXAS. HIGHS WILL LARGELY RANGE IN
THE MID 90S TO NEAR 102 DEGREES, WITH THE HOTTEST CONDITIONS
BEING ACROSS THE BIG COUNTRY AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CONCHO
VALLEY AND HEARTLAND. WINDS WILL REMAIN GENERALLY LIGHT AND
SOUTHERLY THROUGH MONDAY WITH SOME AFTERNOON GUSTS AROUND 10 TO
15 MPH ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE NO RAIN
CHANCES IN THE FORECAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND AND INTO
MONDAY.
LONG TERM
(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1234 AM CDT MON AUG 31 2026
A HOT AND DRY FORECAST WILL PREVAIL ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TEXAS
THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD, AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE DOMINATES
OUR WEATHER. THE CENTER OF THE UPPER RIDGE WILL REMAIN NORTHEAST
OF THE AREA EARLY THIS WEEK AND EVENTUALLY CENTERED OVER THE MID-
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY MID TO LATE WEEK. DAYTIME HIGHS THROUGH THE
PERIOD WILL RANGE FROM THE MID AND UPPER 90S ACROSS SOUTHERN
SECTIONS, TO THE UPPER 90S TO AROUND 102 DEGREES FROM THE CONCHO
VALLEY NORTH INTO THE BIG COUNTRY. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN
WARM, WITH LOWS PREDOMINANTLY IN THE 70S.
DUE TO THE HOT TEMPERATURES, DRYING VEGETATION AND LOWER
AFTERNOON HUMIDITY VALUES, ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL
REMAIN AN ISSUE THROUGH AT LEAST MID WEEK. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL
INCREASE JUST A BIT BY LATE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND. THIS COULD
RESULT IN A FEW SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS OVER FAR
SOUTHEAST COUNTIES FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY, BUT CONFIDENCE REMAINS
QUITE LOW AT THIS TIME.
