...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 1232 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025

Much, much quieter weather is expected across the area for this
short-term forecast, as strong cold air advection continues to
work into the region. By tonight, lows will drop into the mid-30s
north, to the low-40s south, with slightly below seasonable
temperatures expected for the next 36 hours. In fact, a Frost
Advisory is in effect for our northern counties, as a few
locations are expected to drop below freezing tonight. Thankfully,
temperatures should rebound into tomorrow night, with lows only
expected to get down into the mid-40s.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday Night through next Monday)
Issued at 1232 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025

In another sight for sore eyes, the long-term appears mostly
uneventful as well. Temperatures will take a slow warming trend
the first few days of the forecast period, rebounding into the
mid-70s by Thursday, before another cold front moves through the
area. Thankfully, the airmass overhead is already worked over
from a moisture standpoint, so rainfall amounts with this new
front should generally be less than a tenth of an inch. Severe
weather also doesn`t look likely with this cold front, as the
trough shape and timing won`t support it.

Temperatures will fall back into the 60s behind the front, before
slowly rebounding through the weekend. By Sunday, highs will
likely be back into the upper-70s and low-80s, with no additional
rain chances expected through then.
