.SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Issued at 124 AM CDT Thu Mar 19 2026

Skies are mostly clear with temperatures sitting in the low 50s
across the area. Winds are light out of the southwest early this
morning. Today will be sunny with highs reaching the upper 70s
to lower 80s out west as mid-level high pressure continues to
build over the Baja peninsula. Winds will continue to be out of
the south-southwest with gusts reaching up to 15 mph. Tonight
will be mostly clear again with lows sitting in the low 50s.

Friday and Saturday will be hot as temperatures continue to
climb. The overall synoptic pattern won`t change much and we
will continue to warm up and dry out due to the persistent
southwesterly flow. Min RH values gradually decrease through the
end of the week with RH sitting in the 30% range by Saturday.
Dewpoints will be in the 40s to 50s making this feel more like
a dry heat. High temperatures will be in the lower 80s for
Friday and Saturday with no precipitation expected.

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 124 AM CDT Thu Mar 19 2026

A cold front will move through on Sunday and bring lows
overnight into the 30s. That frontal passage looks dry at this
time, but we`ll have to watch for elevated fire weather concerns
as wind gusts may be near 30 mph with min RH values in the
20-30% range. Then, we start to see a slight cool down and get
back to more normal temperatures to start next week. A shortwave
is forecast to move through on Tuesday but chances for rain with
that disturbance has dissipated. No widespread rainfall is
forecast through the end of the period.
