.KEY MESSAGES...

  cool nights and warm afternoons.

- Low rain chances will return early next week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday)
Issued at 1240 AM CDT Wed Oct 7 2026

Quiet weather will continue today and tomorrow as a surface ridge
axis remains draped across the region. Light north to northeast
winds will prevail, which will maintain lower humidity and 
pleasant conditions. Afternoon highs will top out mostly in the 
mid to upper 80s, with a few areas reaching the low 90s across the
Big Country and Brazos Valley. The low humidity, clear skies, and
light winds will continue to allow overnight temperatures to fall
into the upper 50s to mid 60s each night.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday night through next Tuesday)
Issued at 1240 AM CDT Wed Oct 7 2026

After a prolonged period with little moisture, we should start to
see deeper moisture creep back into the region late this week as
what is currently Tropical Depression 9 moves northward through
the Gulf. Fortunately, the proximity of the tropical system will
reinforce east/northeast winds across the region, which will keep
our tranquil temperatures in place through the weekend. The main 
change we'll see will be warmer mornings due to the increase in 
humidity. 

As we head into early next week, another uptick in moisture is 
expected with the return of southerly low level winds, which will
bring low rain chances back to the region early in the week. 
We'll be monitoring the potential for additional rain chances and 
perhaps a cold front mid to late next week as a trough approaches 
from the west.
