.SHORT TERM...

(Today through tonight) 

Issued at 1102 PM CST Sun Feb 1 2026



Weak upper-level ridging will persist over the area through this 

afternoon, and begin to flatten and push eastward through 

tonight. Once this ridge pushes off to the east, it will make way

for a broad upper-level trough to settle into the area overnight

tonight into Tuesday morning. At the surface, the pressure 

gradient across the area will tighten up late this morning through

tonight, with a cold front beginning to push into the Big Country

overnight tonight into Tuesday. What this means for West Central 

Texas is warmer conditions under south to southwesterly flow, and 

gusty south to southwest winds from 15 to 20 mph with higher gusts

from 25 to 35 mph in the afternoon. High temperatures today are 

expected to reach into the 60s, and overnight lows into Tuesday 

are expected in the upper 30s to near 50. Winds are expected to 

diminish slightly overnight tonight into early Tuesday morning, 

but are expected to start becoming gusty again as early as mid 

Tuesday morning.

.LONG TERM...

(Tuesday through next Sunday) 

Issued at 1037 PM CST Sun Feb 1 2026



The next cold front arrives on Tuesday, with brisk north winds 

developing behind the front, along with cooler temperatures. 

Highs on Tuesday will be mainly in the low to mid 60s. Cooler

temperatures will persist into mid week as surface high pressure 

settles over the area. Highs on Wednesday will be in the 50s and  

lower 60s, with lows Tuesday night and Wednesday night mainly in 

the 30s, although some upper 20s will be possible in some of the 

outlying areas early Thursday morning. 



A warming trend will take place by late into the weekend, as 

ridging aloft builds over the Southern Plains and south winds 

return. Above normal temperatures are expected by the weekend, 

with highs in the low to mid 70s and overnight lows in the 40s.

.AVIATION...

(06Z TAFS)

Issued at 921 PM CST Sun Feb 1 2026



Stratus is forecast to develop across the Hill Country Monday

morning, then spread north, resulting in MVFR to IFR ceilings at

KJCT and KSOA. KSJT and KBBD will be on the edge of the stratus,

so have continued VFR ceilings for now. VFR conditions will return

to all sites by late morning Monday. Light winds overnight will 

become southwest and increase to 12 to 20 knots, with higher 

gusts, by late morning.
