Issued at 1200 AM CDT Tue Aug 19 2025 Upper ridging remains in control of the forecast across the region maintaining deep layer northerly flow over the forecast area. This will keep hot afternoon temperatures in place today into Wednesday with highs topping out in the middle to upper 90`s. As upper ridging slowly retrogrades westward by the end of the week, temperatures gradually cool to near normal featuring highs in the upper 80`s to lower 90`s. Overnight lows generally stay in the lower to middle 70`s through the end of the week. Isolated to scattered showers and storms can be expected each day, increasing in coverage late week into the weekend thanks to the upper ridge shifting away from the area. A low risk of rip currents continues through the rest of the week into the weekend. MM/25 && .AVIATION...
