KEY MESSAGES

DISCUSSION
Issued at 225 PM CDT Tue Mar 24 2026
A few weak shortwaves will move across the area tonight into Wednesday in the northwest flow aloft. Deep layer moisture will remain limited and will maintain a dry forecast. The upper ridge will build eastward on Thursday into Friday, maintaining dry conditions with warming temps. The upper ridge shifts west late Friday into Saturday as a trough develops across the eastern states. This will send a stronger cold front southward through the area Friday night into Saturday. Deep layer moisture remains too limited for any rain chances along the front. The upper ridge will build back across the area early next week with continuing dry conditions. High temps will warm this week with low to mid 80s inland by Friday. Highs drop back into the low to mid 70s over the weekend, warming back into the low 80s by Monday. /13
