308 AM CDT Tue Sep 2 2025
.DISCUSSION...Patchy fog is possible this morning and Wednesday
morning especially in the north and central districts due to a
stalled frontal boundary and associated rain. A stalled front
will be the focus for rain chances today through Wednesday before
drier air moves back into the region. Temperatures will be cooler
than normal as well but warm back above normal Thursday and
Friday. Another cold front will move through the region Saturday
and bring cooler than normal temperatures for Sunday and Monday.
