.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1145 PM CST Sun Nov 2 2025

Through Today:

Our flow aloft will become near zonal today as a closed low moves
farther east of our region and ridging aloft moves over our CWA
from the west. Latest surface analysis had a >1025mb high moving
across our region this morning. With a near calm wind and clear
skies, strong radiational of our cool, dry air mass will lead to
patchy fog and areas of frost this morning. Coldest temperatures
and greatest frost potential is over northeast Mississippi where a
light freeze could occur. The surface high will shift east of
Mississippi Monday resulting in return flow that will help
temperatures recover and top out near normal.

Tonight Night through next Sunday:

Ridging aloft becomes dominant heading into Tuesday leading to
warmer weather across the southeast CONUS. Afternoon highs will
peak in the 70s with lows dipping into the 50s. Quiet conditions
will prevail across our area through the late week. Future
guidance continues to show the ridge flattening in advance of a
pair of shortwave troughs Friday and Sunday. This leads to a
brief return of rain chances across our CWA centered on Friday and
Saturday night.
