(Today through Thursday) Issued at 1208 AM CDT Wed Oct 1 2025 Weak west-northwesterly flow at the 500 mb level continues through the short term forecast period.

Highs will easily climb into the lower to middle 90s with dewpoints falling into the lower and middle 50s each afternoon. This morning Thursday morning will be quite comfortable. The NBM has actually been a bit on the warmer side of the bias the last couple nights, so will opt to do a 60/40 blend of NBM operational and NBM 25th percentile. && .LONG TERM... (Thursday night through Tuesday) Issued at 1208 AM CDT Wed Oct 1 2025 Warm and mostly dry weather continues through the long term forecast period. Cool, comfortable mornings will be followed by warm, dry and somewhat hot afternoons for the first week of October. There have been some rays of hope that the pattern may shift to a more active one for early to mid-October, but for now, things remain status quo with warm and dry weather continuing. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1208 AM CDT Wed Oct 1 2025 VFR conditions through the TAF period under mainly clear skies.
