.SHORT TERM... (This evening through Thursday) Issued at 111 PM CDT Wed Sep 24 2025
The cold front has moved to the south of our forecast area today. Behind the front, showers and thunderstorms are pushing south into the I-10 corridor and southern Heartland. This activity is expected to remain sub severe, with the main hazards being heavy rainfall and dangerous lightning. The cold front and dense cloud cover has kept temperatures around 15 to 25 degrees cooler this afternoon compared to yesterday at this time. The rain will continue to push southeast, with most of the activity leaving the area by the late afternoon. However, we could have a few isolated storms hang around the I-10 corridor into the evening. Rain chances will end tonight, leaving tomorrow drier with temperatures right around normal (highs in the mid 80s).

.LONG TERM... (Friday night through next Thursday) Issued at 1150 PM CDT Wed Sep 24 2025
Weak ridging aloft will prevail over the area Friday through the weekend, in advance of an upper level low developing over the Desert Southwest. This will result in dry conditions, with near normal temperatures through Sunday. The medium range models show the upper low weakening as it lifts northeast across the southern Rockies by early next week, with dry and warm eather persisting through the middle of the week.
