KEY MESSAGES

Issued at 1138 PM CDT SUN JUN 7 2026

- High temperatures will climb by the middle of next week, reaching the low-90s in many locations by Wednesday.

DISCUSSION

(Monday through next Sunday) Issued at 1138 PM CDT SUN JUN 7 2026

Shower and thunderstorms chances will remain in the forecast today, as the region remains disturbed from the upper-level low moving into the Midwest. Once it arrives there, this upper-low is still expected to open up a bit more, progressing into a trough that will drop back south into the area. While the best rain chances during this time will remain to our east, this will keep the region mixed enough to allow for scattered showers and thunderstorms to stay in the forecast through Wednesday afternoon.

From here, upper-level ridging should begin to build to our west late Wednesday, and into early Thursday. This ridging will aid in shutting off the more organized rain chances, instead favouring more scattered, diurnally driven shower and thunderstorm activity into the weekend. Confidence still remains high that afternoon high temperatures will begin to climb during this timeframe as well, with highs on Wednesday climbing into the low-90s for the majority of the area.

FIRE WEATHER

Elevated chances for showers and thunderstorms are expected for much of the upcoming week. Because of that, MinRH values will remain above 50% or higher into next weekend. Given daily rain chances and high MinRH values, fire weather concerns remain little to none at this time.
