DISCUSSION

Issued at 1215 PM CST Fri Jan 9 2026

Lingering shower chances persist into the weekend, as the main upper wave(s) phase and ultimately clear the region. A blast of cold air ensues, ushered in with more force as the primary long wave trof digs across the Ohio Valley. Expect winds to pick up again (tmrw) and help usher in that air, before the gradient relaxes on the cold surface high pressure that builds overtop us the back half of the weekend. As such, the coldest day will be Sunday, when most thermometers struggle to peak in the 30s. A similar small mid week next pcpn chance precedes another similar looking cold blast for Thursday that finishes off our following week in like fashion temperature-wise.
