.KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1230 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
- Shower and thunderstorm chances generally along and northwest of Interstate 44 tonight into Tuesday.
- Mostly dry and warm weather into next weekend.
&&
.SHORT TERM... (Through tonight) Issued at 1204 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
Mid level trough axis currently extends from central KS into W TX and is marked by the corridor of moisture and ongoing scattered convection. This feature makes slow eastward progress through Tuesday especially with southern extent. Expect isolated to scattered convection to either persist and/or redevelop in advance of the wave with precip chances increasing northwest of the I-44 corridor overnight into early Tuesday. Dry low level airmass remain in place on periphery of the sfc ridge limiting eastward advance of the precip. A few high based storms could briefly be strong but otherwise a low impact precip window.
&&
.LONG TERM... (Tomorrow through Monday) Issued at 1204 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
Wave weakens and loses influence by Tuesday evening as the mid level ridge axis becomes more aligned through the local region. The favored corridor of convection will likely focus more west of the forecast area with very low chances spreading into NE OK. This pattern remains largely in place into the weekend with heights rising as upper ridging strengthens through the central CONUS. Temps will trend upward and above seasonal normals while dry weather continues.

.AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 556 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
VFR conditions should prevail through the period, with mainly mid and high clouds. Ongoing convection in southern Kansas should stay north and west of the terminals, with high enough potential for decreasing showers near BVO to carry a VCSH. Nearby obs to these showers and the dry air present suggest a very low chance of visibility reduction there. Additional storms after 06Z may also impact BVO with a lesser potential at TUL/RVS but confidence in on-station impacts is not high enough at this point to mention at any of those three terminals. Winds should be light overnight, with increased southerly winds from mid morning tomorrow into the afternoon. Will carry gusts at TUL only.
