.SHORT TERM... (Today through Tuesday) Issued at 1250 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025
Upper level high pressure that was centered over west TX has now moved south into northern Mexico while the surface high remains located along the Texas/Louisiana border. Southeasterly flow should continue resulting in an advection of slightly more moisture for our area. Though moisture increases we should still see another cool morning for Monday. However, lows should be a touch warmer than yesterday morning with mainly lower 60s expected. Highs are expected to be similar to Sundays with many areas reaching the lower 90s. Expect a near repeat for Tuesday`s forecast as high pressure slowly pushes off to the east allowing for continued southeasterly flow that eventually becomes predominantly out of the east once the surface high moves away from our area.

.LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 1250 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025
The upper level ridge continues to remain nearby through the week centering over or just east of our area. Global models continue to remain in great agreement indicating this high shunting all disturbances to our north and west keeping us dry for the week. Well above normal high temperatures should continue into this week with highs expected to approach and/or exceed 90 degrees. Confidence is increasing that we could be in for a pattern change for this coming weekend with even a decent shot of rain as the GFS and Euro seem to indicate as a cold front makes its way into our region from the north. This is still quite a few days out so things can and likely will change. However, for now our pattern of warmer afternoon highs and cooler mornings looks to continue through the work week with our next shot of rain possibly coming next weekend. Stay tuned.

.AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1250 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025
Forecast lower level profiles show increased moisture late tonight into Monday morning and Monday night into Tuesday morning. HREF probabilities of MVFR CIGs of 40-80% favor the Hill Country and Edwards Plateau with lesser probabilities along the Escarpment at the TAF sites. Expect more of a SCTVBKN pattern and have reverted back to TEMPOs at the sites. Otherwise, VFR flying tonight through Tuesday. Due to a stronger boundary layer flow, S to SE winds of 8 to 14 KTs with a few gusts to 25 KTs during the day will linger longer through the evening hours, then decrease to 5 to 10 KTs overnight into early morning.
