.SHORT TERM... (Tonight through Saturday night) Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Sep 11 2025

A large dome of high pressure rests over the Southern Plains today while gentle upper level flow ushers dry continental air from the north. Winds in this regime are expected to be light with variable shifts during mornings and evenings during land / sea breezes. This will be to a lesser effect further inland over CenLA. Given local high pressure environment, conditions will trend dry with no organized precipitation expected into the weekend. Highs forecast to range in the low to mid 90`s and lows toward 70F give or take a few degrees.

.LONG TERM... (Sunday through next Wednesday) Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Sep 11 2025

Sunday, the high pressure pattern builds and expands along the Mississippi Valley keeping conditions dry again into the new week. With the surface ridging adjusted further to our north and east, some onshore flow may perturb the marine boundary layer further inland potentially leading to some weak coastal showers. Blended guidance, while recognizing the coast to be susceptible to seabreeze activity, highly limits even isolated chances. That being said, this is the only confidence caveat to the forecast, as more significant weather will be steered away from local area into the middle of next week. Highs will meander between the low to mid 90`s while evening lows trend into the mid 60`s for interior locations compared to the coast where low 70`s are most likely to maintain through the remainder of the forecast period.

.AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Sep 11 2025

Conditions will prevail VFR through the TAF period. Light east winds with variable southerly components likely through evening hours.

&&

.MARINE... Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Sep 11 2025

Winds will generally range from the NE-SE throughout the forecast period. However, surface high pressure ridging into the northwest Gulf will allow land / seabreezes to occur as well. Higher winds and seas in the 20 to 60 nm waters will ease and abate through this evening. From tomorrow morning to at least early Sunday, this boundary washes out creating hot afternoons with low seas under Light to Gentle winds.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 1235 PM CDT Thu Sep 11 2025

Hot and dry conditions with breezy, variable winds to be expected this evening thru the start of next work week. High pressure over the region strengthens from Friday through Sunday allowing high temps to drive into the mid to upper 90s each day. Surface mixing is expected each afternoon with daytime RH minimums in the 30 to 45 percent range.
