KEY MESSAGES
Issued at 100 PM CST Wed Dec 24 2025
- Near-record warmth will continue through Christmas across the Ark-La-Tex until Monday.

- Seasonably cool conditions (and some freezing temperatures) return in time for the last days of 2025 and New Year's Eve.
DISCUSSION
Issued at 100 PM CST Wed Dec 24 2025
Broad ridging continues in earnest across the Four State Region, remaining as the primary weathermaker in the area through the weekend. The ridge will begin its downward trend in intensity after today, however, above-normal temperatures (and dew points) will be maintained under persistent south to southwesterly surface winds. This warm synoptic regime will ultimately deliver on more near-record temperatures (maximums in the 80s/minimums in the 60s) through Sunday as model guidance suggests a frontal boundary that does not clear the area with colder air until Monday. Long-range guidance continues to indicate a return to near-seasonable conditions through most if not all of next week with another widespread freeze likely (greater than 50% chance of occurrence) on Monday night. /16/
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS) Issued at 539 PM CST Wed Dec 24 2025
VFR conditions are prevailing at all regional sites as of the beginning of this TAF period. There could be another round of fog development overnight tonight. The only factor that may hold this off would be the terminal surface winds, as they look like they will stay more elevated compared to last night. Surface winds will generally be 2-6 kts from the SSW overnight and strengthen to 5-10 kts during the day Thursday. If fog does develop, it should begin to mix out and ceilings will lift in the hours following sunrise. Otherwise, conditions look to stay VFR going into Thursday evening. /57/
