- Seasonable temperatures expected this week with little chance for rain until the weekend.
DISCUSSION
(Today through next Monday) Issued at 1116 PM CST MON DEC 8 2025
High pressure is expected to build into the region today, leading to some clearing of the persistent cloud cover that we've seen over the past few days. Southerly flow returns Wednesday ahead of another frontal passage, but deep moisture return will be lacking, so we're not expecting any significant rain chances with the next frontal passage Wednesday into Thursday. Rain-free weather is expected to continue through the end of the week.
Another wave is expected to dip through the main upper level trough over the weekend. An effective warm front appears to lift northward through the area on Saturday before the main cold front pushes through Saturday night into Sunday, leading to increased rain chances. Keeping the overall probabilities low for now as coverage of any rainfall still remains uncertain.
