.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Saturday)
Issued at 624 PM CDT FRI MAY 30 2025

Drier air is advecting into the area behind the front.
Temperatures and dew points will drop into the 50s in many areas
tonight. Light northwest winds will be present between high
pressure over the Southern Plains and deepening low pressure over
the Northeast. Don`t expect widespread fog given the winds and
drier air moving through. But with the wet ground conditions there
will be some low probabilities for fog in sheltered locations and
near bodies of water. A very pleasant day for the last day of
climatological spring is expected tomorrow with northwest winds as
we break the streak of severe weather on Saturdays.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through next Thursday)
Issued at 115 PM CDT FRI MAY 30 2025

Models have trended a little further north with the shortwave on
Sunday, so have edged PoPs that way. Still cannot rule out some
showers across the central and southern sections of the area, but
probabilities are too low to included right now. After that the
broad ridge will build and we warm up each day. Increased rain
chances at the end of the week, especially in the north. Better
details on that over the next few days.

(Saturday night through next Thursday)
Issued at 236 AM CDT FRI MAY 30 2025

A quick moving shortwave will pass across the area on Sunday
resulting in an increase in cloud cover and perhaps some isolated to
scattered showers across northern parts of the area. Following the
shortwave will be a broad mid-level ridge which will foster several
days of warm and summertime weather as it shifts across the eastern
CONUS and then establishes along the Eastern Seaboard by
Wednesday. Temperatures will gradually trend warmer each day with
highs back into the upper 80s to lower 90s by midweek. A front
will move towards the area on Thursday, but may struggle to push
into the area as the ridge remains extended across the Southeast.
Nonetheless, the front may provide increased rain chances on
Thursday, especially across the west and northwest.
