.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 209 AM CST Tue Nov 11 2025

It`s the coldest morning of the season as surface ridging shifts
across the area, though filtered high clouds are preventing
conditions from being quite as cold as they might have otherwise
been. Nevertheless, as the ridge shifts eastward, low level flow
will turn southerly today commencing a moderating trend that will
continue through the week, with seasonably warm conditions
returning by the daytime tomorrow. It will remain dry through the
majority of the forecast period thanks to stout upper ridging
over the central CONUS.

Though we will begin to see a change in airmass today, with very
dry air still prevailing across the region and breezy southerly
winds, there will be limited fire danger as we begin to warm up
later today. Extra caution should be exercised with any outdoor
burning. By tomorrow, humidity should recover to above critical
thresholds, so this will become much less of a concern.

Details on the next chance of rain remain somewhat uncertain as
guidance continues to vary on the timing of a cutoff upper low and
a potential leading shortwave trough. Either way, dry conditions
still appear likely to last into Saturday. There is potential for
mainly lighter showers to return by early Sunday, but more
substantial rainfall seems unlikely to return before Monday. GFS
based machine learning guidance hints at some potential for strong
storms early next week, though ECM based guidance is less keen.
This remains a time frame where you should expect additional
refinements in the forecast over the coming days. /DL/
