.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 307 AM CST Mon Nov 10 2025

A ridge of high pressure at the surface was sprawling over Kansas
early this morning. Under the ridge we have calm winds, clear
conditions and very dry air allowing for excellent radiational
cooling. Early morning temperatures were already in the teens and
20s.

Below average temperatures will persist today as the area of high
pressure translates slowly southeastward away from the area. This
will allow southerly flow to return from west to east late today and
tonight.

A trough of low pressure will bring southwest low level flow to the
area on Tue allowing temperatures to quickly moderate.

Wed-Fri...a mid/upper ridge is progged to amplify and move eastward
over the central CONUS. Tranquil weather will overspread the region
with mild and above average temperatures through the week. An
increasing pressure gradient late in the week will allow breezy
southerly winds to return.

A shortwave trough is progged to move over the Southern Plains this
weekend bringing increasing chances for precipitation to the area.
We continue to see some differences in where this feature will track
leading to low confidence at this time, but another cold front
should impact the area Sat night and showers and storms are expected
to accompany the frontal boundary, possibly lingering into Sunday
across southeast KS. The front will usher in more seasonable air for
the area on Sunday with highs in the 50s.

A ridge of high pressure will result in light winds and mostly
sunny conditions today. As the ridge axis moves east, southerly
flow will return from west to east becoming breezy tonight. A
developing LLJ will bring some LLWS to south central and
southeast KS after midnight before diminishing around 11-12Z on
Tue morning.
