...New AVIATION...

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Sunday Night)
Issued at 312 AM CDT Sat Apr 12 2025

Another warm and sunny day is expected for today. Winds will become
southerly again this afternoon as high pressure shifts east. This
will create an uptick in humidity for today and Sunday. Highs for
today and Sunday will be in the 80s inland and in the 70s along the
coast.

Winds for Sunday will be on the breezy side as the aforementioned
surface high shifts to the east and a surface low develops over the
Great Plains resulting in a tighter pressure gradient. While we do
remain dry and breezy on Sunday, humidity will be on the rise;
therefore, fire weather is not a concern at this time.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday through Friday)
Issued at 312 AM CDT Sat Apr 12 2025

Upper ridging from Mexico into the Plains/Midwest will temporally
flatten (but remain firmly in control locally) as a trof tracks
eastward across the northern US. A weak, dry, front will sag
southward into the region late Monday night & early Tuesday, but
will quickly washout near the coast. Onshore flow will resume
areawide by Tue afternoon. With increasing dewpoints, overnight
lows will trend upward for the remainder of the workweek as will
daytime highs. Might see some 90 degree readings sprinkled into
the fcst by Thurs-Fri. With mid-upper ridging in place, rain chances
will be low-nil. Next chances probably won`t be mentioning until
next weekend as ridging shifts to the east and we get into a more
swly flow aloft as the next western trof dips into the Desert
Southwest. 47
