137 AM CDT Sat Jun 13 2026

.DISCUSSION...

One or two rounds of showers and thunderstorms are likely today
into tonight. A few severe storms and flash flooding are possible.
Lingering showers Sunday morning give way to a dry afternoon.
Lower humidity works into the area Sunday afternoon and remains in
place Monday and Tuesday. Minimum RH`s fall into the 35 to 45
percent range early in the week before higher humidity returns mid
week along with additional rain chances. Transport winds will be
out of the southwest today before becoming northwesterly the next
two days. Dispersion looks best on Sunday, which is when
transport winds are the strongest, although Monday may offer
decent dispersion given the slightly stronger mixing expected.
