What happened

The episode as NWS EWX wrote it up.

Nearly all of South-Central Texas received less than 50% of normal precipitation during the month, and most counties stayed in the same drought category. The one change was Dimmit County which went from Extreme (D3) Drought to Exceptional (D4) Drought. Atascosa, Bastrop, Bexar, Caldwell, Comal, De Witt, Fayette, Frio, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Lavaca, Lee, Maverick, Medina, Travis, Wilson, and Zavala Counties stayed in D3. Blanco, Kendall, Kinney, and Williamson stayed in Severe (D2) Drought. The Edwards Aquifer level dropped 2.0 feet and was 41.0 feet below normal. Area reservoirs were below normal conservation levels. Lake Travis dropped 1.4 feet and was 15.2 feet below normal. Canyon Lake dropped 0.5 feet and was 21.5 feet below normal. The 7-day average streamflow was much below (<10%) normal on the Lavaca, Blanco, San Marcos, lower Guadalupe, Medina, and Atascosa Rivers, and below (10%-24%) normal on the San Gabriel, Colorado, San Antonio, lower Nueces, and Frio Rivers. Most water providers encouraged conservation while San Antonio and Universal City imposed stage 3 restrictions and New Braunfels and Austin had stage 2. Of the counties in D2 or worse drought, Atascosa, Bastrop, Blanco, Bexar, Caldwell, Comal, De Witt, Dimmit, Fayette, Frio, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Hays, Karnes, Lee, Medina, Travis, Williamson, Wilson, and Zavala had outdoor burn bans in effect at the end of the month.

NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jan 31, 5:06 PM CST, 6 hours 54 minutes earlier. Its key messages:

  • Protect the 4 P's of Cold Weather: People, Pets, Plants, and Pipes thanks to another cold night with lows in the low to mid 20s across most locations
  • Milder weather returns during next week with low (15-25%) rain chances midweek across the Coastal Plains

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Sunday night)
Issued at 1151 AM CST Sat Jan 31 2026

Surface high pressure builds southward this afternoon behind a
secondary boundary that moved through the region overnight. While
there will be plenty of sunshine today, it will be a chilly day
with highs ranging from the low to mid 40s for our northeastern
counties to the mid 50s along the Rio Grande. Moderate to breezy
north to northeasterly winds maintain into the afternoon with
gusts around 25 mph. Speeds then subside later this afternoon into
tonight with the surface high becoming centered to our east-
northeast. Clear skies and lighter winds should yield to
radiational cooling and colder air temperatures tonight. Most will
dip into the low to mid 20s except for locations along the Rio
Grande, which should trend closer to 30 degrees. With light winds,
expect for the wind chills to remain near the air temperatures.
As a result, the region generally remains above the criteria for
the issuance of a cold weather advisory tonight. Regardless,
continue to promote and practice cold weather safety by protecting
the 4 P's of cold weather: People, Pets, Plants, and Pipes

A warming trend starts Sunday into Sunday night as the surface
high slides east and a light south to southwesterly surface wind
develops across the region. The mid-level flow aloft should
encounter changes as well with a shortwave ridge initially moving
across the region during Sunday followed by a shift to more of a
west-southwesterly flow from Sunday night into Monday. This west-
southwesterly flow aloft should also help to usher in some
increasing high clouds from the overnight into Monday morning.
Highs on Sunday reach the mid 50s to near 60 degrees for most
while Sunday night will see lows in the 30s.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Monday through next Saturday)
Issued at 1151 AM CST Sat Jan 31 2026

A warming trend maintains into early next week with the southerly
low-level flow and with a tame weather pattern aloft. The
southerly flow helps to advect higher low-level moisture into the
region and this will yield to the return of increased cloud cover,
especially at night and into each morning. A modest cold front
arrives towards the latter half of the day on Tuesday with the
help from a shortwave pushing southward through the Central Plains
that will likely then pivot more southeastward towards Louisiana.
The front helps to provide the low end (15-25%) chance for rain
across our coastal plain counties from Tuesday afternoon into
Tuesday night but most locations will not receive any rain. The
front does bring drier air and a slight cool down in it's wake but
not much in comparison to the stronger fronts that could occur
this time of year. Temperatures look to warm late week as the mid-
level ridging across the western CONUS builds more east and as the
low-level flow turns back to the west-southwest. Besides the
small rain chances along the front midweek across the Coastal
Plains, no rain is expected.

(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 506 PM CST Sat Jan 31 2026

VFR conditions are expected through the period. Light northerly wind
remains over I-35 tonight then shifts from the southwest late Sunday
morning. In the west, east to southeast winds continue through the
period.
