A warming trend is expected for next week with highs getting back into the 70s or most lowland areas by Wed/Thu. No precip and light winds. A few record highs are possible, especially west of the Rio Grande Valley Thursday.
Warm and dry conditions are most likely into the middle of the month as upper-level ridging holds over the West Coast. Lowland highs in the 60s to low 70s are forecast later next week.
A dry and warm weather pattern has settled over the region and that will give us a good chance for above average temperatures and below average precipitation through at least the middle of the month.
