.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 342 PM CST Mon Dec 30 2024

Low clouds and fog were widespread this morning, It was pretty
thick for most of the area. It was unclear if temps would reach
forecast highs this afternoon. Once skies cleared and winds picked
up, most of the CWA reached the lower 70s generally south of I-20
and mid to upper 60s north of I-20. Winds picked up and clouds
dissipated around mid to late morning, so the area saw some good
warm air advection.

Gusty southerly winds will continue across the region into the
overnight hours, with a short break around sunrise. A gradient
has developed ahead of an approaching low pressure system and cold
front. The boundary will bring in some much cooler air, but has a
very low chance of rain. Highs tomorrow are expected to remain in
the 60s and lows in the lower to mid 30s are likely.
Unfortunately, winds will pick up across the area again by mid
morning, so it will feel like it`s in the 50s or cooler into the
afternoon. It will be a cool night for fireworks.

Another boundary passes through the area late Thursday, bringing
the next round of rain. Normal temps are expected for the
weekend. A wave moves in from the southwest late Sunday, bringing
a large amount of moisture and another chance for showers and
thunderstorms. Beyond Tuesday, cold will be the big story for a
few days.
