.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Monday)
Issued at 1110 AM CST Sun Feb 1 2026

A cool day is on tap across the region, though it`ll be much
warmer than yesterday. High temperatures will range from the mid
40s across our northeastern zones to low 60s across the Big
Country. The return of southerly winds and shortwave ridging aloft
will allow a warming trend to continue into Monday. Following a
chilly morning in the 30s, afternoon temperatures will climb into
the 60s and even low 70s Monday afternoon. Mostly sunny skies are
expected much of the day, but cloud cover will begin to increase
late Monday afternoon as moisture surges northward ahead of a
shortwave trough as it approaches out of northern Mexico and the
Trans Pecos.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Monday night through next Saturday)
Issued at 1110 AM CST Sun Feb 1 2026

Isolated showers are expected to develop Monday night as the
aforementioned shortwave moves overhead. Showers will become more
scattered in coverage heading into Tuesday morning as a cold front
approaches from the north. The front will move through the area
throughout the day, with chances for showers expected to continue
ahead of the front for areas east of I-35. As drier air moves
into the region during the afternoon, rain chances will gradually
be shunted to our south and east.

Cooler temperatures will briefly return to the region in the wake
of the cold front, but a significant cool-down is not expected.
The return of west/southwest winds and ridging aloft will result
in a warming trend late in the week. Above normal temperatures
will return to the region with afternoon highs in the 60s and low
70s through the weekend. No rain chances are expected beyond
Tuesday.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 509 PM CST Sun Feb 1 2026

VFR will prevail through the period with south winds 5-10 kt
overnight increasing to around 15 kt during the day Monday. We`ll
start to see an increase in high cloud cover through the day
Monday with MVFR cigs expected to return late Monday night just
beyond the current TAF period. Until then, no significant aviation
concerns are expected.
