521am CST Tuesday Dec 16 2025

Issued at 1203am CST Tuesday Dec 16 2025

Near normal temperatures are expected through Wednesday before yet another warming trend begins Thursday. An inverted trough will move into the area Tuesday night into Wednesday interacting with PWAT (Precipitable Water) values around 1.50-1.60" to promote medium chances (30-70%) for showers. The warmer temperatures with highs in the 80s are expected to hang around through next weekend. Models are showing the possibility of a cold front towards the end of the work week, but confidence is low at this time. Confidence should increase either way and we enter the domain of the short term model guidance.

Issued at 1203am CST Tuesday Dec 16 2025

Gentle to moderate (BF 3-4) winds are expected through Thursday. Rain chances return Tuesday night into Wednesday due to an inverted trough with medium to high chances (40-80%) for rain. Winds could shift to the northeast and strengthen to a fresh to strong breeze if the late week cold front clears the region.

Fire Weather
Issued at 1203am CST Tuesday Dec 16 2025

Despite drier air across the region, minimum relative humidity values are expected remain above 30% with light winds. A late week cold front could increase winds late this work week, but confidence is low at this time of the frontal passage clearing South Texas. Therefore, elevated fire weather conditions are not expected.
