DISCUSSION

Issued at 1100 PM CDT Sat Jun 6 2026

An upper-low centered across the Texas Panhandle has been the main driver for convection across the region this evening. With the loss of diurnal heating, overall convective intensity is expected to diminish. However, lingering showers and thunderstorms may remain possible through much of the overnight hours due to an overall unstable atmosphere rich in gulf moisture remaining in place.

The upper-low will move northeast on Sunday with low-level moisture advection continuing. Could see convection redeveloping along and south of I-20 as early as mid-morning, increasing in coverage throughout the afternoon. A few strong storms may be possible north of I-30 during the afternoon and evening.

In the wake of the departing upper-low, an upper-level ridge in the Gulf of America is forecast to build north across the ArkLaTex and remain firmly established through much of the the workweek. Subsidence associated with the ridge will allow for mainly dry conditions and afternoon high temperatures in the mid 90s from Wednesday onward. Afternoon heat index values approaching 105 degrees may also be a concern nearly areawide each day.

A weak frontal boundary to drift south across the region late in the work-week providing enough low-level instability to generate a few afternoon showers and thunderstorms beneath the prevailing upper-ridge on Friday. /05/
