.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 115 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025

We should see more sunshine over the next 24-48 hours as high
pressure becomes our predominant synoptic feature of sensible
weather influence. However, we stay on the cold side of seasonal
normals and then another cold fropa, this one by late weekend,
will bring a reinforcing shot of cold that carries the below
normal temperature trend right on into next week. Attendant to
the front`s approach and passage comes our next pcpn chances.
Moisture is scarce however, so amounts are light and as such
offer limitied to negligible impacts insofar as pcpn is
concerned.

Another chance of pcpn comes by mid week as a brief moderation
a little closer to seasonal norms occurs Wednesday, but this
system`s passage comes with another plunge in temperatures as
arctic air arrives/settles in for the end of the week.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 115 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025

Persistence strategy forecasting is best early this package, but
there is still indication that high pressure eventually wins
out and restricted bases scatter today. Return flow southerlies
develop and a resumption of Visual Flight Rules appears
increasingly likely by this afternoon.
