.SHORT TERM...
(Today)
Issued at 156 AM CST Thu Jan 23 2025

Cool temperatures and somewhat breezy conditions are resulting in
wind chills in the teens to low 20s this morning. Northerly winds
today will continue to advect cool air into the region, with highs
ranging from the mid 30s in the north to the mid 40s in the south.
Periods of cloud cover are expected, but no precipitation is
anticipated.

.LONG TERM...
(Tonight through Wednesday)
Issued at 156 AM CST Thu Jan 23 2025

Warm southerly winds develop Friday and Saturday ahead of the
next storm system. High temperatures will climb into the low 40s
to near 50 F Friday (warmest in the south), and then upper 40s to
mid 50s Saturday. Then, another boundary will slide through, with
cooler weather for Sunday as shallow cold air sloshes in. A storm
system will graze the southern portions of the area late Sunday
into Monday, with a 10- 30% chance of a few showers south of I-40.
Overall, rainfall totals look to be minimal.

Southerly flow resumes Monday into the middle of next week, with a
cut off low sitting west of the area. Mild conditions will develop,
with highs in the low to mid 50s (if not warmer). This will
represent the best chance of rain for most locations during the
forecast period and potentially some thunder potential as well.
