.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1258 PM CST Mon Dec 15 2025
Cool and dry conditions will persist through Tuesday as weak
northwesterly flow continues. Expect the next 48 hours to mainly
be a temperature forecast with lows dropping into the mid to
upper 20s once again. After tonight, the pattern will quickly
begin to flip as troughing to our west begins to develop and
northwesterly flow aloft quickly becomes westerly to
southwesterly. Expect a gradual warmup through Wednesday and into
Thursday as our next system approaches from the west. Moisture
should steadily increase and scattered showers and storms will be
possible Wednesday night before increasing on Thursday as a
surface cold front moves through the area. While we cannot rule
out a storm or two getting noisy, the overall setup does look
promising for strong to severe storms as most of the forcing will
be displaced to our north and west. Overall, the rain will once
again be beneficial as we slowly inch our way out of drought.
Once the front moves through on Thursday, temperatures will
quickly drop into the 30s once again. However, this cold shot will
be temporary as upper ridging will likely develop by the end of
the weekend into early next week leading to temperatures
increasing steadily through Monday. Highs by Monday should return
in to the 70s. BB-8
