DISCUSSION
Issued at 1216 AM CST Sun Nov 15 2026
Surface high pressure centered over the Midwest today will maintain control of our weather through mid week as it gradually shifts east towards the Appalachians through Wednesday. Southerly winds return starting Tuesday which allows temperatures to return to above normal readings in the 60s by mid week. In the upper levels, ridging builds across the Ohio Valley heading into mid week. Meanwhile, shortwave energy ejects out of the Rockies and pivots into the Upper Midwest on Wednesday. This system stays well northwest of our area though, with ridging remaining in place through late week. Additional shortwave energy ejects across the central CONUS heading into next weekend which may allow a cold frontal passage and associated precipitation to impact our region by Saturday or Saturday night.
NBM guidance continues to indicate a high probability of temperatures reaching 70 degrees late in the week, peaking around 70- 80% on Saturday. Glancing out further, there is a signal for a cooler pattern to return for the week of Thanksgiving (Nov 23-27) with an increased probability for temperatures returning to below normal levels.
