needed. A strong storm system will come together across the
Central U.S. late tonight into Sunday, fueled by an incredible
northwest to southeast 850mb temperature gradient from western
North Dakota to southeastern Kansas (-26 C to +16 C, or ~75
F!). Widespread rain is expected to develop Sunday morning as
notable mid-level height falls and corresponding large scale
ascent overspread the region, and PWATs reach to near 1" (>99th
percentile for this time of year per NAEFS).

Sunday: Cyclogenesis is forecast to occur over northern
Missouri into west-central Illinois with the surface low quickly
shifting toward southern Lake Michigan into Sunday evening and
deepening below 990mb. The current favored track of the low
from north-central Missouri toward Chicago would bring the warm
sector close to our far southeast to east- central counties,
where dewpoints may briefly reach the mid/upper 50s. The
enhanced low-level moisture may yield several hundred J/kg of
MUCAPE and support isolated thunderstorms along/ahead of a
strong cold front. SPC has continued to hold the Marginal Risk
for severe storms just off to the southeast of the outlook area,
focused more into central Illinois and east-central Missouri.
Any storms that develop south and east of the Quad Cities could
produce gusty winds and small hail. Additionally, isolated
elevated storms are possible further to the north up to near
the I-80 corridor. For rainfall amounts, a widespread quarter
to half inch is anticipated with localized higher pockets where
the heavier downpours pass through. Very strong west to northwest
winds will develop behind the cold front Sunday PM as
temperatures quickly fall from the 50s/40s to the 20s/teens!
This abrupt drop in temperatures will be accompanied by a
changeover from rain to wintry precip, potentially leading to
slippery travel conditions for some areas due to a possible
flash freeze scenario (right now favored north I-80).

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Issued at 315 AM CST Sat Dec 27 2025

Sunday Evening - Monday:

Following the strong cold front will be the onset of strong
W to NW winds and plummeting temperatures Sunday afternoon and
night. Bufkit soundings continue to show around 40 kt atop the
mixed layer and with favorable momentum transfer via deep
unidirectional flow and cold advection, and a tight pressure
gradient surrounding a sub-980 surface low, confidence has
increased on gusts reaching 40-50 mph and a Wind Advisory may
eventually be needed. The snow chances and potential for some
accumulation appear432 to be increasing as well, as a result of
the slower/stronger system owing to more moisture lingering in
the cold air, especially across the northern service area near
the projected track of the mid level low.

NBM probabilities for 1"+ of snowfall are between 30-60% along
the Highway 20 corridor and drop off sharply to the south. The
strong winds with the falling snow could bring some bouts of
lower visibility and as temperatures fall below freezing Sunday
night any untreated wet surfaces will freeze and become slick.
The brunt of the cold arrives Sunday night into Monday morning
as temperatures bottom out in the single digits and teens.
Combine these with the winds and it will be bitter cold with
wind chills lowering into the range of zero to 15 below.

Be sure to stay weather aware this weekend given the multi-faceted
system with a potential variety of impacts!

Tuesday - Friday:

Next week, starting to see more consensus toward a northwest flow
pattern. This would support staying colder /near normal/ and
would favor clipper systems with potentially one for New Year's
Eve into New Year's Day with rain/snow depending on the track.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 1159 AM CST Sat Dec 27 2025

Predominantly IFR to VLIFR conditions expected through the period
in low clouds and fog ahead of a lifting warm front and approaching
low.

Ceilings

Predominantly IFR to LIFR. However, anticipate a transitory period
of improvement to MVFR and even VFR at KBRL late this evening
into overnight, as the warm front lifts through. A brief period of
lifting/improvement is possible at the other sites, but this is
far uncertain with the low passing nearby and therefore have opted
to stay pessimistic. Surface low passing and cold front moving in
should slosh back IFR and possibly LIFR ceilings at KBRL Sunday morning.

Visibility

Predominantly IFR to VLIFR in fog. Temporary improvement to MVFR at
KBRL is anticipate this afternoon before deteriorating toward sunset
ahead of the warm front. The combination of a lifting warm front and
increasing shower chances will lead to the potential for periodic
improvement to IFR to VFR later tonight and Sunday morning. Confidence
is highest at KBRL for this transitory improvement to be MVFR to VFR.
Elsewhere, mainly IFR improvement at best during any showers with a
low chance for MVFR.

Precipitation

Scattered showers (30%) later this evening will become widespread
(80%) late tonight and Sunday morning. Weak instability but
strengthening deep layer shear could support a few thunderstorms
as well during that burgeoning precipitation period, but not
confident on placement/extent and therefore have left out any mention.

Winds

Southeast the rest of today around 10-15 kt with periodic gusts to
20 kt possible at times. Winds will remain southeast early this
evening around 10 kt before turning light and variable or light
south/southwest with a passing warm front and surface low. Sunday
morning by mid morning will see winds shift from the north and
northwest in the wake of the low and passing cold front at KCID
with this continuing at the rest of the terminals late in the
TAF period. Winds will turn quite gusty just beyond the TAF period
from northwest with gusts 35-45+ kt.

Missouri.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

Areas of dense fog reducing visibility down to a quarter mile or
less at times will continue this afternoon through tonight along
and north of I-80 in Iowa.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

Isolated thunderstorms are possible on Sunday. A few strong
storms are possible southeast of the Quad Cites with gusty winds
and small hail the primary threats.

For Sunday afternoon and night, strong west to northwest winds
are expected with gusts between 40 to 50 mph. This will usher in
much colder air and a transition from rain to snow. Probabilities
for an inch or more of snow are 40 to 60 percent along and north
of portions of the Highway 20 corridor. Impacts to travel are
possible with slick spots and reduced visibility in blowing snow.

Much colder air arriving Sunday night with the strong winds will
lead to wind chills dropping to around zero to 15 below zero into
Monday morning.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
