.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 347 PM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Thunderstorms are expected to develop over portions of West Texas
and move to the east-northeast this evening into tonight. We have
low PoPs for the northwest and northern Big Country to account for
the possibility of a few storms moving into that area. There is a
conditional risk for large hail and damaging winds with the storms.
Warm and humid conditions are expected for our area tonight, with
overnight lows expected to be 70-75 degrees. Hotter temperatures are
expected on Saturday, compared to today. Highs are expected to be 96-
102 degrees across our area, with triple digit highs most likely to
be in portions of the Big Country and Concho Valley. An upper level
high will be centered over northeastern Mexico and adjacent South
Texas. With heights building aloft slightly over our area tonight
into Saturday and lack of upper support, keeping PoPs below 15
percent. Some of the hi-res models have indicated a potential for
isolated thunderstorms to develop by late afternoon/evening north of
San Angelo to around Sweetwater. This would be near/south of an
outflow boundary and ahead of a dryline in West Texas. Will need to
further assess this possibility and possibly add some PoPs in later
forecasts.

(Saturday night through next Friday)
Issued at 214 PM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Mid/upper level ridge will reside over Mexico on Sunday, with
the ridge axis extending north across the area. Above normal
temperatures will persist, with afternoon highs ranging between
97-102 degrees, highest across the Concho Valley and western Big
Country. The ridge begins to weaken Sunday night, with northwest
flow aloft developing into early next week. Thunderstorms,
including supercells are expected to develop over the Texas
Panhandle and western Oklahoma Sunday afternoon, within a very
unstable airmass and strong vertical shear. Some of the model
guidance is showing these storms eventually consolidating into an
MCS and propagating southeast into the Big Country later Sunday
evening and overnight. The main hazards will be large hail,
isolated tornadoes and especially damaging winds if an MCS does
materialize. NBM medium to high POPs seem reasonable at this time
for the Big Country, with lower POPs extending south into the
Concho Valley and Heartland.
A favorable upper level pattern (west-northwest flow aloft)
will bring additional thunderstorm chances to much of the area
Monday through Wednesday. A cold front is also expected to move
in from the north late Monday into Tuesday and will serve as a
focus for storm development. Cannot rule out isolated severe
storms during these days but heavy rainfall and a threat for
flooding may be the bigger concern, as the front tries to stall
across the area. Low rain chances will persists into Thursday but
will diminish considerably by Friday as an upper level ridge
begins to build into West Texas.
Much cooler temperatures can be expected next week, with highs
Tuesday through Thursday mainly in the 80s, warming into the
upper 80s and lower 90s by Friday.
