DISCUSSION
Issued at 1205 PM CST Wed Nov 11 2026
As of noon CST, temperatures across the area are in the upper 40s across most of the area, in the low 50s across south central SD. A cold front made its way across the area this morning, leaving behind northerly winds at around 10 to 15 mph and cooler temperatures.
High pressure will move in from the north through the rest of the day and into Thursday. This high starts to slowly move east Friday and by Saturday afternoon is centered over MN. Winds out of the south on the backside of the high will advect cooler air into the area and continue our cooler temps through Saturday. WAA takes over Sunday and we start to warm up back towards the upper 40s to mid 50s (10 to 15 degrees above average). Low pressure begins to move towards the area Tuesday from WY and enters western SD Wednesday. This is still 7 days out, but there could be a chance for some precipitation with this low pressure.
High resolution models are showing some potential brief visibility reductions due to fog tonight, mainly west river. Visibilities are not expected to be reduced a whole lot, maybe down to 2 miles. It will be a little windy Friday through the weekend and into early next work week. Friday through Sunday, winds will gust between 25 and 40 mph mainly west river with some spreading as far east as the James River on Saturday. Monday, the highest gusts look to be in south central SD and around the Sisseton Hills. Tuesday, gusts between 30 and 35 mph will affect most of the CWA as the incoming low fights with remaining high pressure.
