.NEAR TERM...
(Tonight)
Issued at 108 PM CDT Sat Sep 26 2026

High pressure will continue to promote tranquil weather this
afternoon, evening, and overnight -- with light northerly flow
reinforcing a dry air mass. Any clouds this afternoon will largely
dissipate after sunset with winds decoupling overnight. This will
result in another good setup for radiational cooling as
temperatures will drop into the mid to upper 50s by early Sunday
morning. The clear conditions will also allow for a nice view of
the full Harvest moon tonight -- all in all a very comfortable
early Autumn night across the region.

.SHORT TERM...
(Sunday through Monday)
Issued at 1023 AM CDT Sat Sep 26 2026

Expect more of the same both Sunday and Monday as the beautiful
Autumn weather continues. Northerly flow will reinforce this
"cooler" and more importantly drier air mass, helping to make it
feel quite comfortable each day and night. Expect daytime highs
to reach the low to mid 80s both days, with overnight lows in the
50s at night.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday night through Friday)
Issued at 1039 PM CDT Fri Sep 25 2026

Overall, the pattern will be in transition this period after a weak
trough pushes into the Southeast U.S. Tuesday, being overwhelmed by a
building ridge over the southwest Atlantic basin. This builds
influence into the southeast U.S. Wednesday and Thursday. While in
the southwest U.S. and Plains, a complex upper low and eventual remnant
Hurricane Polo evolution remain uncertain. For our area, southerly
flow will be enhanced between the ridge and trough, keeping moist and
unstable air flow northward. This will introduce low chances of
showers and thunderstorms, primarily daytime heating driven, during
the latter half of next week. Temperatures will also be on a warming
trend with highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s.
