.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 205 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
Another warm fall afternoon across the local area as
temperatures climbed into the 80s along with a steady
southeasterly breeze. High pressure remains across the center of
the country aloft...with an area of low pressure across the
desert southwest.
Expect the upper level ridge aloft to shift east over the next
couple of days as the upper level low across the desert
southwest shifts into the southern plains...allowing a weak
upper level disturbance to brush the local area mid-week. While
the current forecast remains dry...some of the ensemble members
are trying to generate some very light precip across the area
Tuesday PM-Wednesday, but more than likely this will only
result in an increased amount of cloud cover over the period.
Could also see temps dip a couple of degrees mid-week with
slightly lower heights aloft and this variable cover, but temps
will remain above normal and likely still in the 80s each
afternoon.
The next slightly better chance for some measurable precip will
come late in the week when an upper level trough crosses the
Rockies and helps steer a cold front moves across the area
Saturday. Again, this does not look like a major precip event or
significant cool down late in the period, although should see
some light showers across the area starting as early as Friday
evening and continuing of and on across at least parts of the
area through Sunday.
Other than the warm temperatures and mostly dry conditions,
expect regular breezy afternoons as the local area will remain
sandwiched between surface low pressure on the lee side of the
Rockies and surface high pressure to the east. This will result
in southerly flow across the area all week, with winds likely
reaching 15-25 MPH each afternoon. Not overly windy by any
means, but a bit breezy especially during the afternoon hours
each day.
