SHORT TERM
 
 
(TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY)  
ISSUED AT 114 AM CST THU NOV 21 2024  
 
THE COLDEST NIGHT OF THE SEASON IS UNDERWAY AND MANY LOCATIONS IN  
THE HILL COUNTRY AND EVEN SOME SPOTS ALONG THE I-35 CORRIDOR HAVE  
ALREADY DIPPED INTO THE MID TO UPPER 30S EARLY THIS MORNING. WITH A  
SURFACE HIGH PRETTY MUCH RIGHT ON TOP OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS, EXPECT  
LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS AND EVEN CALM CONDITIONS THROUGH SUNRISE  
BEFORE WINDS START TO SHIFT BACK OUT OF THE WEST-SOUTHWEST FOR THE  
AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES SHOULD REBOUND NICELY GIVEN DEWPOINTS IN THE  
20S AND 30S AND A LIGHT WSW BREEZE. HIGHS WILL TOP OUT IN THE UPPER  
60S TO MIDDLE 70S WITH PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. ANOTHER CHILLY NIGHT IS  
EXPECTED TONIGHT, BUT NOT QUITE AS COLD AS WINDS WILL BE MORE WEST-  
SOUTHWESTERLY AND THE SURFACE HIGH WILL HAVE SHIFTED TO OUR EAST.  
NEVERTHELESS, LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 30S AND LOWER TO MIDDLE 40S  
CAN BE EXPECTED TO START YOUR FRIDAY. FRIDAY AFTERNOON LOOKS  
FANTASTIC WITH SUNNY SKIES AND HIGHS IN THE 70S.

(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)

A STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY LOWER LEVEL FLOW BRINGS A WARMING AND  
MOISTENING TREND THIS WEEKEND INTO MONDAY ALLOWING ABOVE AVERAGE  
TEMPERATURES TO RETURN. THERE REMAINS SOME DISAGREEMENTS AMONG THE  
MODELS/ENSEMBLES FOR COLD FRONTS NEXT WEEK. THE CURRENT EXPECTATION  
IS A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO OUR AREA LATE MONDAY, MOVES BACK NORTH ON  
TUESDAY, THEN A STRONGER COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS OUR AREA WEDNESDAY  
NIGHT OR ON THANKSGIVING. ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES CONTINUE ON  
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY, THEN NEAR AVERAGE ON THANKSGIVING. ALTHOUGH  
THERE IS FORCING WITH THE FRONTS, MOISTURE LEVELS WILL LIKELY BE  
SUFFICIENT FOR A ONLY A FEW PATCHES OF LIGHT RAIN, AT BEST. AS A  
RESULT, HAVE KEPT RAIN OUT OF THE FORECAST.
