North winds of 15 to 25 mph with gusts up to 40-45 mph will continue to combine with dry air to produce critical fire weather conditions during the morning period. Winds drop to 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 35 mph in the afternoon. Humidity values of 10 to 20 percent are forecast through early this evening. Any fires that develop could be difficult to control and spread rapidly with these conditions. Avoid any outdoor activities that could inadvertently cause wildfires.
Just some high level clouds are expected today as cold north winds make for uncomfortable wind chill indices in the 20s and 30s this morning. Wind speeds should decrease to around 10 mph late in the day.
Well below average temperatures and cold wind chills can be expected today into early Tuesday. A brief freeze is possible in parts of the Hill Country and adjacent areas of the I-35 Corridor and Coastal Prairies Tuesday morning. Another warming trend begins with a near normal day Wednesday and ends up with well above normal temperatures Friday into the weekend. No rain is expected for the next week.
