Cold front will move into the Big Country mid to late morning,

moving along a Mertzon to San Angelo to Brownwood line around 1

PM, and along I-10, 6 to 7 PM. Main cold advection today will be 

in the Big Country with highs in the mid and upper 60s, with highs

in the 70s to the south. Gusts of 17 to 22 mph are possible 

behind the front, mainly along and north of I-20. Air behind the 

front will be mainly dry, but late tonight, low level moisture and

clouds may return in southeastern sections from Junction to 

Brady, as a warm front returns. Lows tonight will range from the 

mid 30s in the Big Country to lower to mid 40s along I-10 and 

portions of the Heartland.

.LONG TERM...

(Saturday night through next Friday)

Issued at 1152 PM CST Thu Dec 11 2025



A broad area of low pressure across the Midwest will send a strong 

cold front through our area late Saturday night into Sunday morning. 

This will usher in much colder conditions across the Big Country for 

Sunday morning. Much of the model guidance depicts low temperatures 

in the middle 20s to 32 degrees. Strong northerly winds behind the 

frontal boundary could be sustained in the 15 to 20 MPH range. This 

will create wind chill (what it actually feels like) readings down 

into the teens. Afternoon highs on Sunday will be much cooler area 

wide with most models forecasting highs between 43 and 47 degrees. 

Sunday night will also be cold with most locations sitting in the 

upper 20s to near freezing. Afterwards, a minor upper level 

disturbance is shown moving across Texas. However, any precipitation 

will be off to the south and southeast of our area. Some lingering 

cloud cover will be the only change this system will bring. 

Otherwise, expect temperatures to quickly warm back up through the 

remainder of the work week.
