DISCUSSION

Issued at 1212 AM CST Wed Jan 28 2026

This morning will be chilly once again though expect conditions to warm through Thursday with highs mainly in the 60s across much of the region. Out west highs will reach 70 by Thursday. Our next cold front will swing through during the end of the week bringing frigid cold temps back once again this weekend. Highs will be in the 40s and 50s with lows in the 20s and 30s Friday and Saturday night. Wind chill values will likely be in the teens and 20s again to go along with this. This will likely warrant freeze warning and cold weather advisory once again for South Texas. The somewhat good news is the chance for precipitation along and ahead of the front have remained low during this forecast cycle (>10% over land). Please take precautions if you need to spend extended periods outside.

FIRE WEATHER

Issued at 1212 AM CST Wed Jan 28 2026

Minimum relative humidity values will remain below critical values across the Brush Country and inland Coastal Plains through the end of the week except for Thursday, where RH values will be above 40%. Although RH values will be low most days, light winds, cool temperatures and low Energy Release Component values will limit the fire weather potential.
