… A Dry Weather Pattern Continues …
On the Weather Map…
On the surface map… a stationary front is lifting northward from a surface low over southeastern Colorado southeastward into western Oklahoma and north central Texas then into southeastern Texas and southern Louisiana then along the Mississippi and Alabama coasts eastward into northern Florida. A trough, or line, of low pressure extends south southwestward from the southeastern Colorado low into eastern New Mexico and far west Texas. As a result of this surface weather pattern, our surface winds over south central Texas are southerly.
On the upper air map… a trough, or line, of upper air low pressure extends southeastward from south of Hudson Bay into the eastern and southeastern USA. Another trough extends southward from British Columbia to along the west coast of the USA. A ridge, or line, of upper air high pressure extends north northeastward from northern Mexico into west Texas and the southern plains states. As a result of the upper air weather pattern, the 30,000 foot winds over our local area are northwesterly at 35 to 40 mph.
What I am Seeing As I Look Ahead…
While longer range forecast guidance continues to suggest that upper level high pressure is strengthening overhead resulting in a dry weather pattern, it may not be quite as strong by the weekend into early next week. After a rebound in afternoon high temperatures yesterday as well as today into tomorrow, afternoon highs may decrease a degree or two by the time we get into Friday into the weekend.
Based upon the latest NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, little to no rainfall is expected over the next seven days.
Have a good Wednesday..
