.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 229 PM CDT Sun Aug 31 2025

The very slow moving upper low will meander south tonight into
Nebraska, cutting off the persistent showers and thunderstorms
across central SD. Any areas that scatter out tonight will be prone
to fog given the ample llm. Some of the fog may be dense. Can`t rule
out an additional shower or two lingering or redeveloping across the
east on Monday as a shortwave passes through in the afternoon and
evening.

North to northwest flow aloft will dominate through mid week. Upper
troughing dips into the northern Plains Tuesday evening bringing caa
and more chances for rain. The upper low dives into the Great Lakes
Wednesday as Canadian high pressure builds in from the north at the
sfc. Both of these features will reinforce caa, and winds may be
pretty gusty, as well. Wouldn`t be surprised to see temps dips into
the 30s on Wednesday night with drier air moving in at the mid
levels and skies clearing. Highs for the latter half of the work
week will be 10 to 15 degrees below normal with sfc high pressure
keeping the region mostly dry.

Scattered showers continue across the region, although model
trends suggest coverage will continue to decrease as we head into
the overnight hours. When showers do move over a TAF site MVFR CIGS
are possible. Otherwise, will be watching for the development of
fog again late tonight/Monday morning. The placement of cloud
cover may influence fog development. Right now the KATY TAF site
stands the greatest chance of having MVFR/IFR fog related impacts.
Trends will help guide the 06 TAF update.
