.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 236 PM CDT Tue Jul 1 2025

A high pressure center will develop as a ridging pattern settles in.
This will bring us a much quieter but warming trend for this week. A
cold front passed through last night, bringing nicer temperatures
and less moist air for today. Highs have been in the low to mid 80s
so far today with no heat indices, which is a nice change of pace.
It won`t last long, as the temperatures are set to gradually warm
and humidity to increase through the week. By Friday, highs will be
back in the low 90s with heat indices around 100 degrees.

Dry weather sticks around through the week, including the 4th of
July holiday on Friday. By the weekend, a slow moving cold front
will sag across the forecast area, bringing showers and
thunderstorms with it. Locally heavy rain is looking probable with
this wave as PWATs are showing values of 2.0-2.2 inches. This cold
front will also usher in more seasonable temperatures for next
week.
