...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

The previous forecast reasoning (see below) remains the same. While
locally elevated fire-weather conditions are possible across
portions of south-central TX (especially along the Rio Grande) this
afternoon, marginal fuels should limit an appreciable fire-weather
risk.

...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough will cross the southern Plains today with a
gradually deepening surface cyclone. This will lead to windy
conditions across the southern Plains. The strongest of these winds
are expected near the Rio Grande where a more deeply mixed airmass
will be present and bring some stronger mid-level flow to the
surface. However, ERC values in this region are above normal and
therefore, fuels are not supportive for an Elevated delineation.
Elsewhere, conditions are too moist/cool for any significant fire
weather threat.
