...Synopsis...
Relatively quiet and dry weather prevails today through the middle
of next week. An elongated H5 ridge continues to influence the
pattern through the forecast period, with a couple of weak trough
passages bringing drier air into the area. The first of these
troughs brings a northerly to northwesterly wind shift this evening
into Wednesday morning. Temperatures are not expected to be impacted
significantly, with highs still reaching into the 70s Wednesday
afternoon. Thursday looks slightly cooler, with highs in the 60s
along the International Border and 70s to near 80 degrees further
south. Fog is possible during the early morning period for the next
several days as favorable radiative cooling and weak surface winds
combine to support fog formation.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY/...
Issued at 635 PM CDT Tue Sep 23 2025
Winds will go to light and variable with mostly clear skies for
the TAF period overnight. Fog may develop tonight and bring
visibilities down to 1/4SM, but predictability is low for where
this develops, so it was not added to the routine TAF issuance.
Fog will diminish after sunrise tomorrow with light and variable
winds continuing.
