.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1153 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025
Finally a break from dreary, cold, damp rain that has overstayed
its welcome the last week or so. The good news is that we likely
put a good dent into drought conditions across the area but now
we will return to cool and dry conditions as the cold front has
finally pushed through the area. Dry northwesterly flow will
prevail through the entire week as broad troughing lingers across
the eastern US. Several weak shortwaves passing through the flow
will bring re-enforicing shots of cold air throughout the end of
the week but with moisture scoured out no precip is expected with
any of these systems. The main talk will be the return of the sun
and temperatures fluctuating between pleasant to cool as each
wave moves through. Expect highs Tuesday and Wednesday to start
off 50s on Tuesday but return to the mid 60s by Wednesday. Lows
will also start in the upper 20s to low 30s tonight then slowly
increase each night back into the 40s by Wednesday. The next shot
of cooler air comes by Friday into Saturday as one of the re-
enforcing cold fronts moves through leading to lows dropping back
into the 30s and low 40s and highs in the upper 40s to low 50s.
Overall a rather un-eventful week. BB-8
