.SHORT TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 253 AM CST Thu Jan 23 2025

Cold front has cleared the area and brought a colder and drier air
mass back into the region. Despite plenty of sun, highs will
struggle to reach into the upper 40s and lower 50s across the area
this afternoon. Surface high builds into the area tonight and
should allow for a decent radiational cooling setup. Undercut
model guidance blends a few degrees, especially across the usual
cold air drainage locations.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 242 AM CST Thu Jan 23 2025

Aloft, look for mainly west-northwest flow turning southwest by this
weekend and next week. As a result, no significant impact weather
for the long term. A dry cold front will move through the area
Saturday. For temperatures, highs will be warmer with the warmest
day Saturday, highs in the the upper 50s to mid 60s across the
area(a little above normal) then cooler temperatures early next
week, warming to above normal by middle of next week with highs in
the 60s. Overnight lows will be mainly in the 30s and 40s. Going
with a dry forecast through much of the long term. The next
