our next storm system is evident on water vapor dropping into
central new mexico. expect an increase in cloud cover as we go
through the day. the chance for showers and isolated thunderstorms
will increase over far western sections of the cwa this
afternoon...spreading area wide this evening. organized severe
weather is not anticipated. rain chances will push into east texas
after 06z.

the weekend looks dry and mild. the warmest day will be
sunday...with highs reaching the low to mid 70s along and south of
i-20.

models are still indicating the next storm system will arrive for
monday into tuesday. yesterdays model runs depicted a closed low
rolling right over our area. todays runs bring an open wave
across...with a more southern trek than previously forecast.
despite some minor differences that still remain among the
canadian/euro/and gfs...the models are in fairly good agreement
with timing and location for precip.

we expect showers and a few thunderstorms on monday...with the
most favorable areas being west of i-35. best rain chances look to
be south of interstate 20 on tuesday...but will continue to carry
a 20 pops elsewhere. temps will cool down for early next
week with highs in the 60s.
