..NEW SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, AVIATION
KEY MESSAGES
- HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH NEXT WEEK WITH
HIGHS IN THE UPPER 90S AND HEAT INDEX VALUES NEAR 105 DEGREES.
- BREEZY SOUTH WINDS WILL CONTINUE TODAY AND MONDAY, WITH FREQUENT
GUSTS BETWEEN 30-35 MPH.
- LOW RAIN CHANCES WILL RETURN NEXT WEEKEND.
SHORT TERM
(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 147 PM CDT SUN JUN 28 2026
HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY
AS THE CENTER OF A MID LEVEL RIDGE AXIS REMAINS JUST TO OUR EAST.
TROUGHING OVER THE WESTERN CONUS WILL HELP SUSTAIN CONTINUED LEE
SIDE CYCLOGENESIS THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON WHICH WILL RESULT IN
PERSISTENT BREEZY CONDITIONS. A DEEPLY MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER WILL
KEEP DEWPOINTS IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S THIS AFTERNOON AND MONDAY
WHICH SHOULD KEEP HEAT INDICES IN CHECK. HEAT INDEX VALUES SHOULD
TOP OUT BETWEEN 100-105 DEGREES. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL ONLY FALL
INTO THE UPPER 70S TONIGHT WITH SOME INTERMITTENT CLOUD COVER.

LONG TERM
(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 147 PM CDT SUN JUN 28 2026
RIDGING WILL PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS BUT THE RIDGE AXIS WILL SLOWLY SLIDE EASTWARD
THROUGH THE WEEK. THIS WILL ALLOW THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO RELAX A
BIT THROUGH MID WEEK AS TROUGHING OVER THE WESTERN CONUS BECOMES A
LITTLE LESS AMPLIFIED. LIGHTER WINDS AND SLIGHTLY WARMER
TEMPERATURES WILL MAKE IT FEEL A LITTLE HOTTER, BUT OVERALL
TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY REMAIN IN THE UPPER 90S THROUGH THE
WEEK FOR AFTERNOON HIGHS. DESPITE THE LIGHTER WINDS, WE'LL
GENERALLY SEE DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING WHICH WILL ALLOW
DEWPOINTS TO FALL INTO THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S. THIS SHOULD
KEEP HEAT INDEX VALUES BELOW HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA. SLIGHTLY
BETTER MOISTURE IS EXPECTED TO SPREAD NORTH INTO THE REGION BY
LATE WEEK AND WE'LL LIKELY SEE SOME LOW STORM CHANCES BY THE
FOURTH OF JULY.
