DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 109 PM CST TUE DEC 30 2025
TONIGHT: STRONG RADIATIONAL COOLING TONIGHT WILL HELP
TEMPERATURES BOTTOM OUT IN THE 20S WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT
WINDS. WITH LIGHT WINDS, TEMPS WILL FEEL LIKE THE FORECAST TEMP
VALUES AND NO ADDITIONAL COLD WEATHER ADVISORY PRODUCTS ARE
EXPECTED.
WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY: MID-LEVEL NORTHERLY FLOW WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS THE DEEP SOUTH REMAINS
ON THE WEST SIDE OF LONGWAVE TROUGHING ACROSS MUCH OF THE EASTERN
CONUS. SFC HIGH PRESSURE, CENTERED OVER THE NORTHERN GULF, WILL
STRETCH NORTHWARD ALLOWING FOR BENIGN WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR THE
NEW YEAR HOLIDAY. TEMPS WILL MODERATE AS A RESULT WITH HIGHS BACK
INTO THE 50S ON WEDNESDAY AND 60S ON THURSDAY. LOW TEMPS WILL
FOLLOW A SIMILAR TREND BUT STILL REMAIN CHILLY FOR NEW YEARS EVE
WITH MIDNIGHT TEMPS IN THE 35-40 DEGREE RANGE TO RING IN THE NEW
YEAR. CLOUD COVER WILL START TO INCREASE FROM THE NORTHWEST BY
THURSDAY EVENING/THURSDAY NIGHT WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE UPPER
40S/LOW 50S. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FIRE WX CONDITIONS
WED/THUR AS AFTERNOON RHS DROP TO 30-40 PERCENT BOTH AFTERNOONS.
WINDS WILL NOT BE ELEVATED EITHER DAY SO NOT EXPECTING TO REACH
WARNING CRITERIA AT THIS TIME. /HUN/
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO A FEW SHOWERS RETURNING FRIDAY AFTERNOON
INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING AS A SOUTHERN STREAM SYSTEM MOVES
ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH. THUNDER CANNOT BE RULED OUT WITH THAT
SYSTEM, BUT THE CURRENT TIMING DOES NOT APPEAR TO FAVOR ANY SEVERE
THREAT. WITH THAT IN MIND, A FEW STRONG STORMS WITH WIND GUSTS UP
TO 40 MPH CANNOT BE RULED OUT. LONG TERM GUIDANCE FROM BOTH THE
GFS AND THE EURO SHOWS THE SYSTEM FINALLY MOVING OUT OF OUR
FORECAST AREA BY SUNDAY BRINGING AN END TO RAIN CHANCES TO FINISH
OFF THE WEEKEND. QUIET CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST HEADING INTO THE
NEW WORK WEEK. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS OUR FORECAST
LOOKING AHEAD INTO TUESDAY WITH DAYTIME HIGHS PEAKING INTO THE 60S
AREAWIDE. /CR/
