KEY MESSAGES
- A GRADUAL WARMING TREND WILL START TODAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH
THE UPCOMING WEEK.
SHORT TERM
(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1202 AM CDT SUN OCT 18 2026
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TEXAS THIS MORNING WILL
SHIFT EAST AND AWAY FROM THE AREA TODAY, ALLOWING LIGHT SOUTH
WINDS TO RETURN. AFTER A COOL START TO THE MORNING, TEMPERATURES
WILL BE A LITTLE WARMER THIS AFTERNOON WITH MODEL BLENDS SHOWING
HIGHS IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S. NOT GOING TO ARGUE MUCH WITH
THESE NUMBERS. LIGHT SOUTH WINDS TONIGHT WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES UP
A FEW DEGREES, WITH LOWS IN THE MID AND UPPER 40S.
LONG TERM
(MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 1211 AM CDT SUN OCT 18 2026
HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY BUILDS BACK IN ACROSS THE REGION OVER THE
NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. EXPECT INCREASING TEMPERATURES TO BE THE MAIN
RESULT. HIGHS WILL BE BACK INTO THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S BY MID WEEK.
A DISTURBANCE ALOFT IS INDICATED IN THE LONG RANGE MODELS FOR NEXT
WEEKEND. HOWEVER, CONSIDERABLE DIFFERENCES IN THE EVOLUTION OF THIS
SYSTEM EXIST BETWEEN THE MODELS. A LOW (20%) CHANCE FOR RAIN IS THE
BEST THAT CAN BE ADDED TO THE FORECAST AT THIS POINT GIVEN THE
CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY.
