.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 235 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
Enhanced and persistent mid and upper level ridging associated
with a blocking type pattern across the eastern CONUS will
continue to support unseasonably mild and dry continues across
our region for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, no impactful
weather is anticipated through the next 7 days, though drought
conditions will continue to deteriorate.
In the near term, a weak cold front will drop southward in
across the area tonight then wash out into Sunday. There will not
be much of a noticeable impact from this front other then an
east-northeasterly wind shift into early Sunday morning, along
with the possibility of a few early morning lower clouds and
patchy shallow ground fog. Otherwise, an expansive area of high
pressure will become established over northeastern North America
this week. This will ultimately favor the larger scale synoptic
flow to favor persistent onshore easterly winds through much of
the upcoming week. Accordingly, we can expect the lake cooling
footprint to spread relatively far inland each day, which should
keep conditions near the lake generally in the 70s for highs,
while interior areas top out in the 80s.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 1147 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
Winds will remain light and turn from northwest to northeast
through the overnight period, and remain northeasterly through
the remainder of the TAF period. Wind magnitudes tomorrow may
remain fairly light (5kt or less) through mid-afternoon before a
lake breeze reinforces speeds to 10kt or so. Occasional periods
of mid-level clouds may occur, but clear skies should generally
prevail.
