Area forecast discussion, Jul 1, 2:26 PM CDT, 47 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 226 PM CDT Sat Jul 1 2023 ...New SHORT TERM... .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Sunday) Issued at 225 PM CDT Sat Jul 1 2023 As of 2 PM, an outflow boundary/cold front had moved south to a line roughly from Mertzon to San Angelo to San Saba, and was sparking showers and thunderstorms across the Concho Valley, including San Angelo. Some of this activity contains heavy rainfall, and some localized flooding is likely with the heavier storms. Additional development later this evening to the west of the area over higher terrain, and near other residual boundaries from yesterday's convection is also possible. This activity would likely move to the east or southeast into our western counties later tonight, so have kept a 20 to 30 percent chance for showers and thunderstorms in the forecast tonight. On Sunday, the overall set-up will not change that much, with weak relative troughing over the area, plentiful moisture available, and various residual boundaries in the area, another round of scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible, especially for the southern half of the area. As with today's storms, localized flooding will be likely with the stronger storms. Temperatures are expected to again be near or slightly below average for highs on Sunday, mainly in the upper 80s to lower 90s. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday night through next Friday) Issued at 203 PM CDT Sat Jul 1 2023 An upper level ridge will be centered across the Desert Southwest for the first half of next week. West Central Texas will remain on the eastern periphery of this feature, but the ridge should still remain close enough to result in slightly above normal temperatures and generally dry conditions. Highs on Monday will be in the mid to upper 90s. Highs much of the rest of the work week will be between 95 and 102 degrees. Wednesday night into Thursday, models are indicating a weak cold front moving south into North Texas. This weak front then stalls and becomes diffuse across the Big Country on Thursday. This front may be the focus for isolated showers and thunderstorms, mainly across the Big Country. Next weekend, the aforementioned upper level ridge begins to build east into Texas. This results in drier conditiions and well above normal temperatures. Much of the area will likely see temperatures between 100 and 105 by next Saturday. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 115 PM CDT Sat Jul 1 2023 An outflow boundary and scattered SHRA and TSRA are currently affecting areas from just north of KSJT to KABI. Expect this boundary to make it into the KSJT area, and possibly result in scattered TSRA at least near the KSJT terminal. Additional thunderstorms are expected to develop later this evening to our west, and move into the area later this evening, so have kept some VCTS for this possibility in the latest set of TAFs. Conditions should largely remain VFR outside of thunderstorms. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
