DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 247 AM CST WED NOV 19 2025
TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
LOWER VISIBILITIES SEEPED INTO LOCATIONS ALONG AND EAST OF THE
MISSOURI RIVER OVERNIGHT, AS PATCHY FOG AND DRIZZLE DEVELOPED.
TEMPERATURES DIPPED INTO THE UPPER 30S AND LOW 40S OVERNIGHT, WITH
THE CLOUD COVER KEEPING THE AREA WARM ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE
DEVELOPMENT OF ICY PATCHES.
TODAY, CLOUD COVER WILL SLOWLY DECREASE FROM WEST TO EAST, AS
EASTERLY WINDS BECOME SOUTHERLY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO RISE BACK INTO THE LOW TO MID 50S TODAY, WITH UPPER
40S EXPECTED ACROSS WESTERN IOWA.
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL DRIFT THROUGH THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY MORNING, BRINING WINDS BACK TO THE NORTH AS LOW
TEMPERATURES DIP INTO THE MID 30S. THE FRONTAL PASSAGE STILL LOOKS
TO BE DRY AS ANY NOTABLE MOISTURE REMAINS WELL TO THE NORTH AND
SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. SUBTLE UPPER RIDGING, AHEAD OF THE NEXT
TROUGH APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTHWESTERN CONUS, WILL ALLOW
THURSDAY'S HIGH TEMPERATURES TO REACH INTO THE MID TO UPPER 50S,
WITH A FEW LOCATIONS AGAIN REACHING 60 DEGREES.
FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEK...
THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED LOW WILL EJECT NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD KANSAS
ON FRIDAY. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHUNT PRECIPITATION FROM THIS SYSTEM
SOUTHWARD, CLIPPING THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA. EVEN
IF WE SEE A NORTHWARD NUDGE TO THE SYSTEM, RAIN WILL BE FORECAST DUE
TO THE PRIMARY JET STREAM LOCKING UP THE COLDEST AIR IN CANADA.
AFTER A DRY WEEKEND, A SECOND LOW WILL MOVE OUT OF THE SOUTHWESTERN
CONUS, LIKELY TAKING A SIMILAR PATH TO ITS PREDECESSOR, BRINGING LOW
PRECIPITATION CHANCES TO THE REGION EARLY NEXT WEEK. HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S THIS WEEKEND, AND
EARLY NEXT WEEK, AFTER A BRIEF DIP INTO THE 40S ON FRIDAY. BUT,
UNFORTUNATELY, ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WON'T LAST FOREVER.
COLDER AIR LOOKS TO SINK INTO THE REGION BY LATE NEXT WEEK.
AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY/
ISSUED AT 506 AM CST WED NOV 19 2025
AN MVFR TO LIFR CLOUD DECK WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT EASTWARD TODAY

FIRST TO REACH VFR LEVELS, AS CLOUDS SCATTER OUT AROUND 15-16Z
THIS MORNING. PATCHY FOG AND DRIZZLE ALONG AND EAST OF THE
MISSOURI RIVER WILL EVENTUALLY DISSIPATE BY THIS AFTERNOON.
CONDITIONS AT KOMA SHOULD IMPROVE TO MVFR BY AROUND 15Z, WITH
VFR CEILINGS BY 21Z. LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS WILL EVENTUALLY
BECOME SOUTHERLY, GENERALLY REMAINING UNDER 12KTS.
