.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 132 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
A dry air mass over the Northland today after a cold front
earlier this morning has lead to near critical fire weather
conditions low RH`s and gusty winds. These conditions are
expected to continue into tomorrow, though winds will be
slightly lower.
At the same time, a high pressure will settle over the Ohio
River Valley and keep us sunny and dry for the first half of the
week. The high pressure may slowly be pushed off to the east
for the latter half of the week, with slight (~10%) chances for
precipitation. Predictability of where/when precipitation may
occur is low at this time. In this kind of blocking pattern, it
is common that models try to break it too quickly, so there is a
decent chance this high pressure hangs around into next weekend.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 624 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
VFR conditions are expected through the period as high pressure
remains dominant. A weak disturbance aloft moving through the
Borderlands early Sunday morning will potentially lead to LLWS
in KINL. Light and variable winds overnight become southwest to
south on Sunday, becoming gusty for the NE MN terminals in the
afternoon.

.MARINE /FOR NEAR SHORE WATERS OF WESTERN LAKE SUPERIOR/...
Issued at 132 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
Winds out of the northwest continue across western Lake
Superior. Winds over the lake are less than over land, though a
rogue 20kt gust is possible along the North Shore through the
afternoon. Winds decrease tonight and shift out of the southwest
for Sunday, with wind gusts up to 25 kts possible up near Grand
Portage. However, there is not enough confidence that conditions
will be hazardous to small craft to issue a Small Craft
Advisory. Otherwise, dry conditions continue for the rest of the
weekend and into next week.
