SHORT TERM...through Tonight...

Dry conditions will continue through tonight. As H500 winds shift
to northwesterly flow, some mid to high clouds will move SE across
the Panhandles associated a weak perturbation in the mid levels.

average for near mid January with values ranging in the 20s. Winds
of 5-15 mph will start from the southwest before veering to
northwesterly later tonight.

LONG TERM...Wednesday through Monday Night...

The dry pattern continues for the FA. Wednesday through Thursday 
look to be pleasant and warm for this time of year. Winds are 
progged to be light for Panhandle standards. While both days will 
see temperatures well above normal, Thursday will have the warmest
temperatures in the mid to upper 60s.

By Friday the next upper level trough will be digging south into the
central Plains. A surface low will develop over far northeastern 
NM and move southeast across the Texas Panhandle before a cold 
front moves through early in the day on Friday. Friday looks to be
in the 50s as the cold air lags behind. However, Friday will be 
breezy with winds out of the north 25 to 30 mph with gust up to 
40. The stronger winds will be in the western combined Panhandles 
where the higher height rises will be coming in from SE CO. H85 
temperatures do not fall below zero until closer to midnight 
Saturday morning through midnight Sunday. H85 temperatures fall to
around -2 to -5 C in the southern Texas Panhandle while the 
northeastern combined Panhandles see -7 to -9 C. 

Sunday onward, temperatures stay near average for the daytime and
nighttime, with 20s overnight and 50s during the day. Winds look 
to be light to only slightly breezy for the FA during this time.
