.KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1245 AM CDT Fri Sep 12 2025
- High pressure will keep rain chances low and temperatures high through the weekend into next week across the Four State Region.
- Outdoor humidity will remain low enough to limit more dangerous heat, but gradually enhance wildfire and drought development risks further into September.

.DISCUSSION... Issued at 1245 AM CDT Fri Sep 12 2025
Persistent ridging aloft will control weather conditions across the Four State Region through the next seven days. This will keep the atmosphere suppressed enough for almost no rainfall through the same period with variably light winds and above-normal temperature maximums for this time of the year (upper 90s). The only reprieve from more dangerous heat will come from dew points remaining in the upper 60s/lower 70s with long-range guidance suggesting lower 60s into next week. That said, this gradually drier air will become more of a concern for enhanced fire weather and drought development by the end of the month. /16/

.AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1236 PM CDT Fri Sep 12 2025
For the 12/18z TAFs...A scattered cu field is developing across the region and will continue into the afternoon. Short-range guidance has cloud cover decreasing through the day, with a few higher level clouds being the only coverage for much of the overnight hours. The same guidance has cloud cover increasing towards the end of the period with some moisture advection. But I`ve kept the forecast to the typical cu field development for now due to uncertainty. Winds will generally stay light/variable through the period. /57/
