NWS San Angelo, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 30, 11:35 PM CST, 25 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 1235 AM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... - Scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop across the Hill Country this afternoon and Big Country tonight. - A few storms could produce severe wind gusts today. - Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible Tuesday through Friday, with warm and humid conditions persisting. && .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Tuesday) Issued at 119 PM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 Tropical moisture associated with the remnants of the Tropical Storm Barry are resulting in numerous showers and thunderstorms across South Texas. This slug of moisture is forecast to continue to push north across Central Texas late this afternoon and evening, resulting in scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some of this activity could move into our southern counties later this afternoon and evening. The better chance of showers and thunderstorms will be across the Big Country, in the vicinity of a weak cold front that will move into the region later today. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are forecast to develop across the Big Country and north of the Big Country late this afternoon and evening, with this activity decreasing in coverage Tuesday morning. A few strong to severe storms are possible, with damaging winds being the main concerns. In addition, locally heavy rainfall is possible. Overnight lows will be in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are again possible on Tuesday. The higher chances will be across the northern half of the area, closer to the remnant cold front. The main concern will be locally heavy rainfall. Increasing cloud cover along with possible showers and thunderstorms will result in high temperatures below seasonal normals. Highs will be in the mid 80s to lower 90s. && .LONG TERM... (Wednesday night through next Tuesday) Issued at 1145 PM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 A subtropical ridge to the east of the region will keep broad southerly flow from the surface up to 500mb, and will continue the influx of Gulf moisture into West Central Texas the end of this week. Generally this will keep warm and humid conditions, as well as some scattered showers and thunderstorm chances in the forecast through the end of the week. While severe weather is not expected, precipitable water values will be high (1.50 to 2+ inches), which will contribute to locally heavy downpours and increase potential for flooding with the stronger storms. Expect slightly below normal temperatures through the end of the week due to the increase in humidity and cloud cover, with highs in the mid 80s to mid 90s. Warmest temperatures are expected across the Big Country and northern portions of the Concho Valley and Heartland. The ridge will gradually shift back westward across the region by the weekend, decreasing precipitation chances slightly and bringing some warmer afternoon high temperatures to the area through Monday. High temperatures over the weekend and into early next week will climb back into the mid to upper 90s, with warm overnight lows in the low to mid 70s. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1235 AM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025 VFR to occasional MVFR conditions through the rest of the night with diminishing rain showers. Ceilings should improve 15Z-18Z, Chances for showers and thunderstorms will increase after 20Z. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
