.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Monday afternoon)
Issued at 240 AM CDT Sun Apr 5 2026

Showers are exiting Terrell County where light to moderate rain has
been falling on and off for much of the night. Part of the morning
will see a lull in shower activity before an upper level disturbance
passes across northern Mexico and into West Texas over the course of
today. Scattered showers and storms will be possible across the
western and southern portions of the CWA. Given fairly dry
conditions closer to the surface, moisture will need to fill in,
thus limiting rain amounts. Increasing cloud cover and
intermittent rain will keep temperatures well below normal for
areas south of I- 10 with highs struggling to reach out of the
50s. To the north and east, highs climb into the 60s to around
70F.

For tonight, lighter winds and dry air allow for efficient cooling
and much of the area falls into the low to mid 40s. Portions of the
northern Permian Basin and southeast New Mexico may even dip into
the 30s. Any daytime showers and storms decay during the evening and
rain chances fall below 10% areawide for Monday. With slightly less
cloud cover, much of the area ends up warmer compared to Sunday, but
temperatures stay below normal in the 60s to around 70F.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday night through Saturday)
Issued at 240 AM CDT Sun Apr 5 2026

Tuesday sees another round of unsettled weather as another upper
level disturbance cross West Texas and southeast New Mexico.
Scattered showers look to cover the area during the day, but again,
rain amounts look meager. Wednesday through Friday see much warmer
temperatures return to the region as broad upper level ridging
develops across the Four Corners and slides over the Southern Great
Plains. Despite the ridge, upper level disturbances undercut the
flow and move into the region over the course of Thursday and
Friday. This brings rain chances back to the region and with the
added warmth, this increases the chances for storms. However, this
portion of the forecast period is still five plus days away and
details will be better picked up over the next few days.
