KEY MESSAGES
Issued at 449 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025
- Possible freezing fog this morning, mainly over the far SE Panhandle.
- Warmer and dry through the end of next week.
SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Saturday) Issued at 1133 PM CST Thu Dec 4 2025
Skies will continue to clear for most of the area overnight, although SW winds will slightly increase to near 10 mph which will help to moderate lows and keep them generally in the mid-to-upper 20s. Freezing fog remains possible over the far SE Panhandle where winds will be a bit lighter and moisture somewhat more abundant. Any fog that develops there as a result will occur near sunrise and should burn off thereafter. Westerly downsloping winds and further clearing will bring about a rebound to temperatures this afternoon. Both the upper and low level jet cores remains south of our area and as such the far SW Panhandle will only see highs in the low 50s closest to the core of the cold airmass. Otherwise, the rest of the area will see highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Winds will diminish in to the evening and veer to the northwest into the evening.
LONG TERM
(Saturday night through next Thursday) Issued at 1133 PM CST Thu Dec 4 2025
Increased due westerly flow on Saturday should allow for temperatures slightly warmer than NBM guidance, possible reaching near 70 across southern and eastern portions of the area. A broad upper trough centered over the Great Lakes will bring a surface cold front trough late Saturday into Sunday. Winds will switch to northerly and highs will around 10-15 degrees from Saturday. Warmer and mostly clear/dry conditions will prevail next week, with Tuesday through Thursday remaining the warmest expected days in a generally westerly surface flow pattern. Well above average highs in the 70s are possible.
AVIATION
(12Z TAFS) Issued at 449 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025
VFR conditions will prevail. There is a very low chance for freezing fog to affect CDS before 15Z and fog is expected to remain north of the terminal.
