.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1131 PM CST Sat Dec 6 2025

After a mild Saturday, our focus this evening and overnight
transitions to the dense fog that will be possible across the
region. After watching surface observations and coordinating with
out neighboring offices, visibility is quickly dropping across
some locations, which has prompted the issuance of a Dense Fog
Advisory for the entire area through 9:00 AM Sunday morning.
Visibility will drop to a quarter mile or less at times, making
driving tricky. If you`re out and about, please treat the roads
with the utmost caution - slow down and use your low-beam
headlights. Sunday offers a very brief warm-up, with highs
climbing into the mid-50s across our northern zones and reaching
the mid to upper 60s across our southern zones. A cold front will
push through the area on Sunday night into Monday.

The rest of the week looks to be a bit of a thermal roller coaster ,
giving us a classic December feel. Cooler, more seasonal air
settles in on Monday behind the aforementioned cold front, but
don`t get too comfortable in those jackets. Another warm-up begins
on Tuesday, culminating in a beautifully warm Thursday where our
southern zones can welcome back the mid-70s. This pattern of
fleeting warmth and quick cool-downs is something we`ve been
watching over the past few days, and it can feel like the
atmospheric circulation is constantly in flux, moving things
between our familiar world and a far cooler place, only to bring
us back to the warmth again. Looking ahead to the end of the week,
the warm party is short-lived as another cold front arrives late
Thursday into Friday morning. This may also kick up an isolated
shower or two in our eastern zones while at the same time ushering
in cooler temperatures once again for the weekend. /33/
