.KEY MESSAGES...
Issued at 1002 AM CST Sun Dec 7 2025

   cloud cover move out overnight tonight.

   temperatures being the main weather focus this week.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1057 AM CST Sun Dec 7 2025

Recent observations have widespread dense fog lightening over the
past several hours, so the Dense Fog Advisory has been allowed to
expire. Satellite imagery still shows widespread fog over much of
the Southern Plains, so still drive with caution today. Max
temperatures today have been adjusted down slightly to better
align with recent trends and the continued cloud cover that will
persist today. No other changes to today`s forecast were
necessary.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1002 AM CST Sun Dec 7 2025

A cold front will be pushing through the region this evening and
bringing an end to the dreary conditions that have been the norm
recently. A drier airmass will push out cloud cover and the
lingering drizzle in our southeast overnight tonight and leave
cooler temperatures behind. Early morning on Monday should be free
from clouds and fog, but temperatures in the 30s will make getting
out of a warm bed difficult.

Clear skies will continue through the week as a temperature roller
coaster begins. The chilly air from the cold frontal passage will
give way to a warming trend thanks to the increased sunlight and
a southerly wind shift. The entire region will see above average
temperatures around midweek, with the I-20 corridor flirting with
70 degrees by Thursday. As can probably be expected, this warmth
will be short lived as another cold front moves in with a bang
Thursday night. Afternoon highs will breeze past seasonal on
Friday to 10 degrees below average by the weekend. There may be
some light rainfall in our eastern zones with this frontal
passage, but model solutions are still pretty inconsistent that
far in the future. All in all, conditions will be beautiful all
through the week as long as you dress appropriately for the
temperatures.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1214 PM CST Sun Dec 7 2025

A mix of IFR/LIFR across the airspace this afternoon as terminals
continue to struggle with dense overcast and low ceilings, while
also fighting consistent vsby limitations due to DZ/BR and now RA.
This will continue to be a battle through much of the TAF period,
with gradual recovery overnight and through Monday as terminal
surface winds shift to the north. Improvement is likely to begin
across the ETX terminals this evening with gradual improvement
further east not anticipated until the early morning. That being
said, MVFR CIGs will likely be the best seen in this package, with
MVFR to VFR transition likely in the 00z package period.
