DISCUSSION
Issued at 237 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025
Tonight through next Monday night: Dry northwest flow aloft will be the primary weather influence in our area, and this will result in seasonable temperatures as we go through the weekend. A dry cold front passing through the area Wednesday afternoon will bring a glancing shot of colder air that will result in freezing temperatures Wednesday night for the northeastern quadrant of the CWA.
There will be a brief warm-up Friday/Saturday ahead of another cold front, then much colder temperatures will follow the frontal passage as we go from Sunday into early next week. This front is also expected to bring showers through the area, but rain totals will be very low, not exceeding 0.5in. Forecast confidence for this round of colder temperatures has increased some as more guidance points to a significant polar high surging south through the MS Valley. It seems the cold anomalies should be centered on Monday morning, but dangerous cold is not expected. Look for temperatures to rebound and rainfall chances to increase a bit as we head into Wednesday./EC/OAJ/
