Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 216 AM CDT Fri Jul 4 2025 ...New SHORT TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - A Flash Flood Watch is in effect for much of West Central Texas along and south of i-20 until 7 PM this evening. However, the western Concho Valley and Northern Edwards Plateau is not in the watch. Heavy rainfall is possible with the stronger cells, which may result in localized flooding. - Isolated to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible this weekend, with temperatures trending warmer. && .SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 212 AM CDT Fri Jul 4 2025 The WV imagery early this morning is showing a slow moving/weak disturbance across our area. Also, PW values are around record values(2.2 to 2.4 inches) and deep moisture flux convergence over the Heartland. For hydro warning purposes have a few Flash Flood Warnings going for the Concho Valley and Heartland. The bottom line, the near storm environment supports heavy rainfall and flash flooding. Will see a repeat today across mainly the eastern half of the area where medium chances of rain exist. A few thunderstorms are possible and the highest chance of flash flooding due to high rainfall rates with any thunderstorms. The tropical environment(very high PW values) is primed for heavy rainfall and possible flash flooding. Have extended the Flood Watch until 7 PM this evening. However, have removed the western 1/3 of the Concho Valley and Northern Edwards Plateau as the threat has pretty much ended for this area. Keep up with the latest weather information and have many ways to receive warnings. The weather looks more quiet for tonight with only a few showers possible. && .LONG TERM... (Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 1221 AM CDT Fri Jul 4 2025 Rain chances will gradually decrease across West Central Texas through the weekend, as the upper-level ridge shifts back westward and winds aloft begin switching to a more drier northerly flow pattern. Isolated or widely scattered showers and thunderstorms, mainly diurnally driven, will still be possible this weekend. With less cloud cover, afternoon high temperatures will be warmer than what our area is currently seeing, but still slightly below normal for July. Expect highs to be mostly in the mid 80s to mid 90s this weekend, with continued humid conditions. Drier and Warmer temperatures are expected to kick off the work week next week, as the upper-level high continues to build across the area and center over the Four Corners area on Tuesday. Our area will be on its eastern periphery of this system, but will heavily influence the forecast for the area through much of next week. Expect afternoon highs to start off in the lower to mid 90s in the early to middle parts of the week, and then climb into the mid 90s and into the triple digits by the end of the week. Little to no rain chances are expected for much of next week. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1218 AM CDT Fri Jul 4 2025 Expect MVFR/IFR ceilings through Friday morning at the terminals. The ceiling will rise to mainly low end VFR by Friday afternoon. Also, scattered to numerous showers and a few thunderstorms are expected mainly east of an Abilene to San Angelo to Junction line. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
