715 FXUS63 KDDC 011656 AFDDDC Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Dodge City KS 1156 AM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... - Tranquil weather today - Temperatures rising into holiday weekend - Storm chances increase into holiday weekend && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 245 AM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025 Weak high pressure will dominate Kansas weather today, so we can expect quiet conditions. Temperatures will perhaps be a touch warmer than yesterday, but most of the forecast area will still struggle to reach the 90s as NBM probabilities greater than 90 degrees are mostly less than 20%, with a few exceptions to the north and southeast. Winds will be light for most, generally less than 15 mph given high pressure. Tonight remains calm and tranquil as temperatures drop mainly into the 60s. Wednesday and Thursday will feature at least some pop up storm chances (around 20-30%), but overall coverage and intensity will be limited. Higher storm chances (30-40%) will come Friday and into the weekend as weak and subtle troughing ejects into the Plains. This may be enough to result in some better organization to storms given slightly better forcing, but likely not enough for much in the way of severe. Otherwise, temperatures this week gradually increase into the 4th of July and the holiday weekend with high temperatures in the 90s and lows in the middle 60s to low 70s. && .AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/... Issued at 1155 AM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025 VFR conditions will prevail with a few mid level clouds this afternoon. These clouds will dissipate this evening into the overnight hours. Winds will generally be from a southerly direction through tomorrow. && .DDC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && $$ DISCUSSION...Bennett AVIATION...Hovorka_42
