Discussion

Issued at 1215 PM CDT Thu Oct 29 2026

: Synopsis:

Surface high pressure is in place following last night's cold front. This will maintain dry and seasonable conditions through Friday. Water vapor satellite imagery shows moisture flowing eastward into the region to allow for clouds to increase in the mid levels tonight. Starting Friday, ensemble guidance all points toward upper ridging building into the Northern Plains with a southwest flow pattern. This will trend temperatures toward above average, particularly by Saturday. The way this upper ridging builds with moisture transport can also promote low stratus, fog/drizzle - especially heading into November. This continues to lower confidence in exactly how warm temperatures get. With at least partial sun, temperatures could soar well into the 60s Sunday into Monday.

: Increasing Rain Chances:

Getting into early to mid next week, ensemble guidance is mostly in agreement on some extent of rain event as an upper shortwave trough in the Southwest translates into the Central Plains. While the best forcing looks to remain south of our area, there could be enough influence from this feature to bring the next round of light to moderate rain into the forecast, heavily favoring the southern zones. A lack of cold air behind the system results in near zero chance for frozen precipitation.

Aviation

Issued at 616 PM CDT Thu Oct 29 2026

VFR skies and light winds will be the story through the period with some mid level VFR clouds moving through the south this evening. No impacts to operations expected.
