ISSUED AT 122 PM CDT WED AUG 26 2026
MODELS SLOWLY BRING A WEAK COLD FRONT INTO OUR REGION THIS
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT, GENERATING A SMATTERING OF CONVECTION
MAINLY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE MODEL BLEND
PRODUCES CHANCES IN THE 15-35% RANGE, WITH THE HIGHER CHANCES
MORE FOCUSED ACROSS OUR EASTERN HALF OF COUNTIES THIS EVENING.
MANY AREAS WILL REMAIN DRY, BUT LOCATIONS THAT SEE THUNDERSTORMS
MAY SEE BRIEF HEAVY RAINFALL.
BEHIND THE FRONT, DRIER AIR WILL BE SLOW TO ARRIVE, FINALLY
FILTERING INTO OUR REGION BY THURSDAY NIGHT. TEMPERATURES WILL
REMAIN FAIRLY SEASONABLE THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY, BUT THE
LOWER HUMIDITY WILL MAKE IT FEEL A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE.
WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE SOUTH SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT,
RESULTING IN A WARMING TREND SUNDAY INTO NEXT WEEK. HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 90S SUNDAY, AND THE
MIDDLE TO UPPER 90S BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. DEW POINTS THROUGH
THIS PERIOD WILL MAX OUT AROUND 70 DEGREES, KEEPING THE HEAT
FROM BEING TOO OPPRESSIVE THIS TIME AROUND.
