DISCUSSION

Issued at 209 PM CST Mon Dec 8 2025

A northwest flow regime continues over the region for several days which will result in dry weather persisting with up and down temperatures during the week. Westerly downslope effects will be maximized tomorrow which will boost temperatures well above normal. This could allow daytime highs to become somewhat closer to mixed out low level thickness values unless some high clouds move overhead. Next cold front pushes southward into Kansas Tuesday night with cooler temperatures on Wednesday, but values will still be above normal. The weather pattern cycle then repeats for Thursday into Friday. Downslope effects warm temperatures well above normal for Thursday with next cold front sinking southward Thursday night. Cooler temperatures will follow for Friday and extend through the weekend. Long range models are highlighting another reinforcing push of shallow cold air arriving for Saturday night into Sunday. Sunday could be the coldest day over the next 7 days.
