.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1219 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025

The mid-latitude longwave train continues apace with trough
arrival about every three days across the Four State Region. This
synoptic pattern will continue to favor shorter atmospheric
recovery times, limiting convection to marginally severe
thunderstorms at most and stratiform precipitation (in liquid
form) at a widespread minimum. The next rounds of precipitation
arriving Wednesday night into Friday night will carry the same
characteristics as frontal passage on Thursday and post-fronntal
isentropic upglide through Friday delivers the same milquetoast
convective variety we`ve come to expect in the past few weeks. WPC
QPF adds this all up to a northwest to southeast 0.01-1.25 inch
rainfall gradient over the next 7 days. Temperatures will respond
in kind with maximums and minimums moderated below normal under
precipitation by the end of the week, and back to near-normal
(maximums in the 60s, minimums in the 40s) when the precipitation
is not falling and clouds are thinner. /16/

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 515 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025

For the 02/12Z TAFs, skies have begun to clear across our western
airspace. Elsewhere, IFR to MVFR CIGs remain, and are expected to
improve through the course of the day, scattering out and
eventually lifting to VFR areawide, with a few high clouds if not
SKC at area terminals, followed by increasing BKN to OVC high
cloud decks by the end of this forecast period. Winds will remain
northerly through daylight hours at speeds of 5 to 10 kts,
becoming light and variable by sunset and swinging around to
southerly overnight while remaining light.
