DISCUSSION

Issued at 1111 AM CDT Sat May 23 2026

An upper level wave that is currently moving across the greater region is sparking off some shower activity across the area. This will move east as the day continues and the shower activity should taper off as well during this time period. Lows tonight will be close to normal with values in the upper 40s to around 50F.

We will be in between weather systems Sunday with split flow aloft. The net result is a drier and warmer forecast. Highs Sunday should peak in the mid to upper 80s with lows mainly in the 50s.

Looking at the next business week, the models and the ensemble counterparts are forecasting seasonably warm temperatures and periodic storm chances. Several GEFS and ENS ensemble members indicate accumulating rainfall next week. We certainly hope this comes true as our drought continues to expand and get worse in category.
