DISCUSSION

Issued at 109 AM CST Fri Feb 6 2026

Today through next Thursday...Quiet weather will overall remain the norm across the forecast area through the weekend and into the start of the new work week. Temperatures during this time will gradually moderate up to eventual above normal levels for this time of year as ridging aloft builds east into and eventually through the region during the late weekend/early next week timeframe. Before that, a weak frontal boundary will move into and through the forecast area later today into tonight. However, other than a slight increase in mainly high clouds across the region, no rain is currently forecast to accompany it.

The next best chance for rain across the forecast area comes in the form of isolated to scattered showers late Tuesday into Wednesday. During this time, a southern stream shortwave moving through the Lower Mississippi River Valley will force a cold front into and through the forecast area bringing these chances for rain along with it. In the wake of the front Wednesday night into Thursday, a return to quiet conditions with only a slight cool down is expected with temperatures falling back to near and just above seasonal readings. /19/
