.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 233 AM CDT Mon Apr 14 2025

Cold front that will be moving through here is currently located
from central Illinois to NW TX. This front will move into the area
starting around 8am Tue for northern areas and should be at the
coast by 8pm Tue. The front will likely move over the northern gulf
before stalling late Tue night. There will be plenty of cloud cover
with this front and a few areas with light rain but this will not
measure for most. The main theme with this front is the reinforcing
cool dry air that we have been enjoying lately.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 233 AM CDT Mon Apr 14 2025

The cold front will have stalled Tue night or early Wed then
sprinkle or two, but nothing measureable. The front will pivot and
move back north by late Wed where it will orient north to south
bisecting the area where it will slowly wash out through the
remainder of the week. Another front should move into central or
east TX by next weekend and stall. Storm complexes are expected to
develop and move east from there possibly bringing our rain chances
higher by next weekend or the start of the new week.
