...New AVIATION...

.KEY MESSAGES...
Updated at 629 AM CDT Mon Jul 13 2026

- Daily scattered showers and storms are expected through the week.

- The potential for multiple rounds of rain will increase the risk
  of flooding, especially south of the I-20 Corridor.

- Below normal temperatures are expected through the week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 144 AM CDT Mon Jul 13 2026

The moisture finally arrived yesterday as we saw scattered showers
and storms develop. Activity increases today and tomorrow as a
weak disturbance moves into West Texas. The disturbance will be
slow to move out due to weak steering flow. Any storms that
develop will be capable of producing locally heavy rainfall and
flash flooding. Currently, the threat does not appear widespread
enough to issue a flood watch but we will continue to monitor for
the need. Increased clouds and rainfall keep highs in the 80s
today and Tuesday, unseasonably cool for mid July.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 144 AM CDT Mon Jul 13 2026

The end of the week is a continuation of the short term. Large
high pressure remains well north of the CWA providing little
subsidence to cap convection. A deep southeasterly flow from the
gulf continues advecting moisture into West Texas and eastern New
Mexico and daytime heating destabilizes the atmosphere enough to
provide good rainfall chances. Models are showing convection over
Central Texas creates and MCV that slowly moves west late in the
week. This creates additional instability and rain chances become
high (>60%) in the Big Bend and lower Trans Pecos. Flash flooding
will continue to be a concern, especially in the Davis Mountains
and along the Rio Grande where many summer vacationers will be
camping near flood prone areas. Clouds and rain continue below
normal temperatures as highs remain in the 80s through the end of
the week. A drier and warmer trend begins early next week bringing
conditions more climatologically normal.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 629 AM CDT Mon Jul 13 2026

VFR conditions will be predominant across the TAF sites the next
24 hours. Occasional MVFR conditions are possible in heavier
showers moving across the sites but should be short lived. A
tropical air mass may limit the lightning activity today though
any of the TAF sites could see SHRA mainly from 18-06Z. TS will be
more limited.
