.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1211 PM CST Wed Jan 14 2026

A dry cold front is currently approaching our northern tier
counties, it is expected to pass through South Texas entirely by
this evening. In the wake of the front, breezy northerly winds will
filter in along with relative humidity values dropping below 40%.
Elevated fire weather conditions are expected for those over the
inland Coastal Plains and Brush Country this afternoon.

Southerly flow returns Thursday night through Friday for a brief
warmup, before another cold front pushes through late Friday night
into Saturday. Surface high pressure centers over South Texas
Saturday night into Sunday morning, providing an efficient
radiational cooling event with light northeasterly winds and clear
skies. Early Sunday morning will be our coldest lows, with much of
inland South Texas in the 30s and our northern tier counties from La
Salle to Victoria containing a low (20-40%) chance of reaching
freezing according to the NBM.

The surface high shifts east of us by Sunday night, returning
onshore flow and another brief warm window Monday with highs back in
the 70s. Another cold front looks to push into South Texas late
Monday night into Tuesday with a surface coastal low developing soon
after into the middle of next week. The combination of the front,
surface coastal low, and PWATs in the 99th percentile will set the
stage for our next rain chances which at this time sits at least 20-
40% Monday night through Wednesday. Both ECENS and GEFS mean have
precipitation totals through next Wednesday between 0.25-0.75"; not
enough to improve reservoir levels, but soil and vegetation would
benefit.
