DISCUSSION
Issued at 841 PM MST Tue Nov 25 2025
For the rest of the week, tranquil conditions are forecast as northwesterly flow aloft holds in place much of the time. Shortwave ridging builds in Wed-Thu, allowing temps to warm to a few degrees above normal for Turkey Day. Fair skies and generally light winds are expected through Saturday with no impactful weather until the weekend.
A backdoor cold front dives down the High Plains on Saturday, reaching our area that night. The cold air/winds are not expected to be that significant heading into Sunday, since the surface high stays over the Central US. Gusty winds can be expected along west slopes of mtns on Sunday as the front struggles to get past the RGV. Temperatures fall to slightly below average early next week as NW flow remains.
It seems like the storm track will be too far north to give us much chance for precip during the first half of the week, although LREF guidance shows a decent upper trough swinging through on Monday. We'll see if this trough deepens and brings in enough moisture to bring lowland rain showers and mtn snow. The high-end scenario (10% chance of higher amounts) gives the Sacs about 6" of snow and around 0.5" of lowland rain (no snow). Most likely scenario (NBM median) is we stay dry with Monday's system.
