Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
549 AM CDT Sat Oct 11 2025

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Fog into Saturday morning, dense across portions of the area
  (see Dense Fog Advisory for expected locations).

- Above average high temperatures in the upper 70s to mid 80s
  and mostly dry weather forecasted through next week.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Issued at 239 AM CDT Sat Oct 11 2025

Fog, dense across portions of the area (see Dense Fog Adv that
ends at 10am), will burn off by mid to late morning, leaving a
quiet day with highs in the mid 70s (central MO) to the low 80s
as a ridge builds into the area.

For tonight, we may see some fog over the eastern CWA, mainly in
river valleys, with lows ranging from the upper 40s (eastern
Ozarks) to around 60 (western CWA).

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Issued at 239 AM CDT Sat Oct 11 2025

The ridge continues to build over the area through the long
term, but the axis may shift slightly southeast of the area
Sunday night into Monday as a trough influences from the west.
Above normal temperatures will persist through the long term
with highs in upper 70s to mid 80s each day, along with
generally dry weather. Models have been coming into better
agreement on this, so confidence is medium to high in the
overall pattern and resulting temperatures.

There is potential for the pattern to be marginally disrupted by
an upper trough and potentially a surface front pushing in from
the west Sunday night and Monday, leading to 20-30% chances for
rain. Forecast rainfall is currently < 0.10". If the upper
trough and front do not make it into the area, then dry weather
and mid 80s highs can be expected.
