Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 210 AM CDT Wed Sep 24 2025 ...New LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Increased chance of showers and thunderstorms today. A few of these storms could be strong. - Heavy rainfall this morning could result in areas localized flooding. - Cooler temperatures and dry weather late this week and this weekend. && .SHORT TERM... (Today and tonight) Issued at 115 AM CDT Wed Sep 24 2025 The combination of mid to upper level lift, a cold front and a favorable upper level jet will result in medium to high chances of showers and thunderstorms today through this evening. Also, PW values of 1.5 to 1.75 inches will result in possible localized flooding, especially south of I-20. No severe weather is expected, but a few storms may be strong with the main hazard being gusty winds. Much cooler today with highs in the upper 70s to mid 80s. Overnight lows will be in the upper 50s to lower 60s. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday through Tuesday) Issued at 147 AM CDT Wed Sep 24 2025 A drier weather pattern will develop late this week into the weekend, with near normal temperatures Thursday and Friday. Highs both days will be in the mid to upper 80s, with cool overnight lows in the upper 50s and lower 60s. Short wave ridging aloft develops over the area this weekend, in advance of an upper low over the Desert Southwest. South winds return, along with slightly warmer temperatures this weekend, with highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s. The upper low will weaken and track eastward as an open wave into the southern Plains by early next week, but the prospects for precipitation with this system appears quite low at this time. So mainly a dry forecast early next week, with highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s persisting, with overnight lows mainly in the lower 60s. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Tue Sep 23 2025 Expect scattered to numerous thunderstorms to develop late tonight and Wednesday across much of the area and have thunder at all of the terminals for several hours. Will watch radar trends for possible amendments probably after 10Z. Otherwise, widespread MVFR/local IFR ceilings will develop at the terminals during the morning hours and continue through much of the afternoon. Ceilings will rise to low end VFR after 25/00Z. Also, a cold front moves through and winds become north with a few gusts to 20 knots Wednesday afternoon. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
