KEY MESSAGES

- Warmer than normal temperatures with areas of fog are expected this week.

- There is a 20% chance for advisory impacts from a wintry mix Thursday night into Friday.

- A more active pattern may continue into next week bringing additional opportunities for winter impacts over parts of the region. Predictability in impacts remains very low beyond Friday.

..Additional Systems in the Late Forecast Period

As we remain in a general trough west, ridging east pattern for early next week, additional waves and precipitation are likely. However, day to day this evolution remains highly uncertain, with the timing and strength of waves driving what will occur. To give context about how uncertain the day to day pattern is, NBM 25th to 75th temperature spreads are upwards of 20 degrees in spots Sunday into Tuesday of next week. Without any model to model or run to run consistency, its hard to determine what sensible weather will do day to day. Check back in the coming days for updates.

AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/

Issued at 530 PM CST Mon Mar 2 2026

VFR conditions prevail this evening at all TAF sites. Look for an increased chance for fog tonight as a weak cold front gradually drifts southward into the area. Highest chances will be at KGFK, KTVF, and KBJI; however, KFAR and KDVL could still see fog briefly during the late overnight hours. IFR to LIFR visibility is expected where fog is able to form. At this time, guidance suggests that the temporal impacts will be somewhat short, with fog chances diminishing around or just after sunrise. Winds will diminish this evening before going light and variable through the overnight hours and into Tuesday morning.
