-Temperatures above average starting next week, especially by
 Monday with high temperatures in the 70s.

.SHORT TERM ...
(Today through Sunday night)
Issued at 249 AM CST Sat Feb 22 2025

A highly positively tilted open wave trough is traversing the
combined Panhandles today. Despite this, some H85 WAA will be
bringing in some slightly warmer afternoon temperatures in the
50s. No precipitation is expected with this weak low pressure
system moving across due to the lack of moisture advection. High
clouds should stay south of the combined Panhandles today with
increasing high clouds expected tomorrow under northerly flow
aloft on the back side of the aforementioned upper level trough.

Tonight, light winds and clears skies should allow temperatures to
drop below freezing, in the 20s, Panhandles wide. Tomorrow,
additional warming of H85 temperatures are expected to help bring
some afternoon highs in the 60s across the combined Panhandles
tomorrow.

.LONG TERM ...
(Monday through Friday)
Issued at 249 AM CST Sat Feb 22 2025

Monday is looking to be the warmest day in the extended period.
Highs are forecast to be in the lower to mid 70s across the
region for Mon afternoon. Tuesday temperatures are expected to be
a couple of degrees cooler, but not by much. It is now looking
like Wed will be the day for a weak cold front to bring
temperatures down to closer to normal in the lower 60s as a
shortwave trough traverses the area. Surface winds are progged to
pick up to around 20 mph out of the north behind this front.
Again, precipitation is not looking likely with this shortwave as
surface to H6 remains dry along with subsidence in place. Thu is
progged to be a couple to three degrees warmer with Friday
possibly seeing some lower 70s for afternoon high once again.
