.KEY MESSAGES...
- Cooler weather will continue through Tuesday before above normal
  temperatures return the latter half of the week.
- No precipitation is expected through the next 7 days.
&&
.SHORT TERM... /Issued 1244 PM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025/
/Through Monday/
The upper level pattern across the CONUS is currently split
between a trough near the Eastern Seaboard and a ridge over the
Rockies, with North and Central Texas lying in the middle. The
resulting northwest flow aloft (along with a surface front down
along the Gulf Coast) will provide dry and pleasant weather to
most of the region for the next few days. One possible exception
is southern portions of Central Texas, where a weak disturbance
aloft may generate a few elevated showers or storms later today,
with rain chances generally 20 percent or less.
Otherwise, low clouds will gradually transition to mostly sunny
skies this afternoon with highs in the 80s. Clouds are thicker and
more widespread than advertised by the NBM, making a slight
downward adjustment necessary for afternoon highs. Additional low
cloud and fog development will be less likely tonight as drier air
spreads in from the northeast, though patchy fog may still occur
near the Red River Valley and in Central Texas.

.LONG TERM... /Issued 1244 PM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025/
/Monday Night Onward/
A slow eastward shift in the upper level pattern will bring the
Rockies ridge overhead by midweek. The ridge will then remain
planted over Texas and the Southern Plains for several days,
bringing a return to summer-like temperatures midweek through next
weekend. Highs will increase from the 80s early this week to the
low and mid 90s starting Wednesday, but somewhat dry conditions
will still allow low temperatures to drop into the 60s each night.
Strong subsidence associated with the ridge will shut down any
convective attempts, keeping rain chances less than 10 percent
through the end of the forecast period.

.AVIATION... /NEW/
/00Z TAFs/
VFR conditions are generally expected to persist through the
08/00Z TAF period with no significant concerns for aviation
interests. Sky cover will consist of SCT/BKN altocumulus based
near 4-6 kft for a few more hours, in addition to some passing
cirrus as drier air has been slow to spread through the region.
Otherwise, light easterly winds will continue to veer to the
southeast overnight tonight with speeds generally remaining
around 5-8 kts.
