.DISCUSSION...

Issued at 148 AM CST Tue Dec 30 2025



All is quiet across the region this morning with surface high 

pressure in control. Clear skies have allowed temperatures to fall 

into the teens with a light westerly winds creating wind chills in 

the single digits in some spots. Downsloping west-northwest winds 

through the day today will help boost temperatures back above-normal 

this afternoon with some passing mid and high clouds. Afternoon 

temperatures will top out in the mid 40s to low 50s. Further warming 

occurs on Wednesday and highs will reach back into the 50s for most. 

A couple of weak cold fronts will push through the area Wednesday 

and Thursday nights, leading to increased cloud cover and slightly 

cooler temperatures for Thursday and Friday. Northwest flow becomes 

quasi-zonal as a western CONUS ridge advances east towards the 

Plains late this week into the weekend, maintaining dry conditions 

and above-normal temperatures.
