KEY MESSAGES
Updated at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
- Near normal highs in the 60s and mostly dry conditions through the week.
SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Tuesday) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
Clear skies and calm winds overnight will again bring a non-zero chance of patchy fog for western regions on the Caprock. This does not look to be as favorable as previous nights with a bit less moisture, but nonetheless with another low-level inversion developing, it cannot completely be ruled out. Monday morning lows will be cooler where skies remain clear, likely falling into the upper 30s and low 40s. An upper low will slowly track our the area Monday, however as its center will pass directly overhead, all of the associated moisture advection and forcing will remain confined to central and southeast Texas. Most of the cloud cover will be there as well, so we will see mostly sunny skies over much of the area and near-normal highs in the 60s.
LONG TERM
(Tuesday night through next Sunday) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
Despite the active pattern across the CONUS this week, relatively benign conditions are expected across our area. The upper low will finally depart on Tuesday, with light WSW winds helping to bring highs a degree or two warmer from Monday. An upper trough and associated surface cold front will move through on Wednesday with surface winds switching out of the north. However given the time of year, the airmass will not bring the much cooler temperatures we would see as we approach meteorological winter and highs will be similar as Tuesday. Additional increased mid-level northerly flow between the aforementioned trough and a building ridge to the west will drop highs a couple degrees thereafter into the next weekend. Precipitation chances may return later in the weekend into early next week with an upper low approaching from the west.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1028 PM CST Sun Nov 8 2026
VFR and light and variable winds will continue. There is a slight chance of fog on the Caprock overnight tonight, however it should remain west of the KLBB and KPVW terminals.
