KEY MESSAGES

- Above normal temperatures, 15-20 degrees warmer than normal, will continue into the weekend before getting up to 20-25 degrees warmer than normal this weekend.

UPDATE

Issued at 514 PM CST Wed Feb 11 2026

Our mild forecast continues, with only minor adjustments anticipated this evening mainly with respect to the thicker cloud cover over our far southern counties.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 1024 AM CST Wed Feb 11 2026

Weak low pressure moves into south central SD tonight with a nose of a sfc trough/warm front extending toward the MN/IA border. Models have nudged any moisture even farther south. With the exception of a weak 15 to 20 kt llj potentially ginning up some sprinkles in Lyman and Jones county early this evening, chances look too slim for a precip mention. Removed the 15 to 20 pop, accordingly, especially given the dry westerlies aloft.

Dry conditions and above normal temperatures continue through at least Monday. High temperatures appear to be 15 to 25 degrees above average with warmest temps Sunday and Monday as slightly breezier southerly winds create better mixing.

Tuesday may be the next chance for widespread rain, though confidence is low at this time range with a wide solution spread in the track of the low moving into the Plains.
