.KEY MESSAGES...Issued at 1125 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
- Mostly dry weather will continue throughout the next week, with maybe some isolated showers across our far eastern zones late on Thursday.
- As we go through the work week into next weekend, temperatures will remain above normal through the forecast period. &&
.DISCUSSION... Issued at 1153 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
Upper ridging continues to dominate across our portion of the country but the ridge axis is forecast to shift eastward on Tuesday as an inverted trough moves into the Middle Red River Valley. This trough will have some forcing in association with it but there is no moisture unfortunately to force to generate any kind of precipitation chances. This inverted trough axis shifts south and east towards the Lower Miss Valley on Wed with weak upper ridging trying to nudge its way back into our region from the Ohio Valley by Thursday.
The upper trough to our southeast tries to reestablish itself across the northern Gulf Coast by late Thursday into Friday and even through the upcoming weekend. Have been talking about the possibility of this retrograding upper trough across the southeast U.S. for the last couple of days and the reluctance of the NBM to spit out any precipitation chances by late this work week. The NBM has finally come around to such a solution with widely scattered shower and thunderstorm mention for Thu only but as the we get closer to the upcoming weekend and assuming the trough axis continues to remain located across the Tenn Valley into the Lower Miss Valley, would not be surprised to see additional pops in the forecast for at least the eastern third for Friday and into the upcoming weekend as well.
Concerning temperatures, without any frontal passages to speak of and without any considerable rain chances, persistence is the best forecast tool and that will result in above normal high temperatures during the afternoon and low temperatures at night continuing.

.AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 611 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
This TAF period will be filled with VFR conditions for all sites. Some cirrus cloud cover is moving eastward into portions of northeast TX and southeast OK right now. These clouds could be enough for BKN prevailing at a few sites but should diminish to be FEW/SCT overnight to match other sites. Fog doesn`t look like it will be a concern tonight, but expect another summertime cu field to develop across the region around 29/16z and persist through the afternoon. Winds will generally be northeasterly through the period with maximum speeds around 6 kts tomorrow afternoon. /57/
