Special Weather Statement, NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
217 AM CDT Tue Mar 22 2022

.SHORT TERM (Today through Wednesday)...
Satellite and radar trends show convection finally moving east and
weakening early this morning. We expect the storms to be east of the
area by sunrise. High pressure will build into the area today,
bringing breezy, cooler, and drier conditions. The upper low/longwave
trough will be slow to progress east, so we expect some mid and upper
level clouds to pass across the region today and Wednesday, but no
additional rainfall is expected.

&&

.LONG TERM (Wednesday Night through Monday)...
The longwave pattern across the CONUS is projected to be zonal for
the rest of this week and into the weekend. However, low amplitude
waves will generate periods of clouds mixed with sunny skies. Cold
air advection will cease Wednesday night. As southerly flow resumes
on Thursday, look for a warming trend, with morning lows rising into
the upper 50s to lower 60s, and afternoon highs reaching the mid to
upper 80s for the weekend into early next week. The GFS and ECMWF
have a shortwave trough reaching Texas by March 30/31, which will be
our next chance for rain.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Gusty winds and low humidities will overspread areas that received
little or no rain from today's system, and have been in a drought
condition for months. In addition, vegetation green-up is still just
starting, and with fuels cured by winter dormancy, wildfires can
spread quickly and erratically. We have issued a Red Flag Warning
from 1 to 7 pm for locations roughly along and west of a line from
Rocksprings to Sabinal to Pearsall. Similar conditions are possible
each afternoon through the weekend. However, with winds not expected
quite as high as today, we will keep stressing the elevated to near
critical conditions, but not issue additional Fire Weather Watches or
Red Flag Warnings unless widespread critical conditions develop.
