.DISCUSSION... Issued at 1219 PM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025
The Four State Region remains stuck in the middle of two weather systems across the CONUS. Between troughing across the SE CONUS that will support the development of a coastal low along the Mid- Atlantic states, and a large upper level disturbance approaching the PNW, amplified ridging bisects the country, with local influence expected to only increase as the ridge slides east through the weekend. Locally, this will keep the region dry while also allowing for afternoon highs to creep closer to 90 deg F for the start of next week. The good news in this is that both deterministic guidance and NBM output depict dew points to remain in the upper 50`s to near 60 deg F. So while the actual temperature may return to the 90`s, humidity will be tolerable.
Looking to next week, and as previously mentioned, the pattern remains benign for the foreseeable future as the influence of the ridge keeps the FA in a dry and warm state. While not normally discussed in this portion, given the prolonged dry period, and a noticeable uptick in local drought conditions, fire weather due to low relative humidity and dry soils will need to be closely monitored in the coming days. This concern will only increase as the ridge remains parked overhead, with any chance for moisture rounding the ridge on the western and northern side.
