.UPDATE...
Issued at 551 PM CST Sun Nov 2 2025

Surface ridge axis lies from east TX, across the Arklatex, and
into the lower Mississippi Valley. Lee side low pressure over
eastern CO has set up a decent pressure gradient across OK. The
gradient will slacken a bit overnight as a weak boundary
approaches the KS border. Nevertheless, persistent southerly flow
across OK will lead to a much milder night tonight. In the valleys
of far eastern OK into western AR closer to the surface ridge,
overnight lows are expected to dip into the 30s, but chances for
frost are lower tonight.
