Updated at 548 PM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025 - Unseasonably warm temperatures continue through the weekend. - Increasing southerly winds and the warm conditions will aid in limited fire weather concerns for the weekend, especially Sunday afternoon. - Rain chances return early next week, mainly for areas along and north of I-44. && .SHORT TERM... (Through tonight) Issued at 1216 PM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025 Loosely organized convective cluster ongoing across SW MO will continue to drift southeastward with the western flank of the associated outflow serving as a boundary for scattered to isolated convection. A few showers or storms will likely move into far NE OK and far NW AR through mid evening but coverage is expected to remain low. Otherwise dry and seasonably mild overnight conditions. && .LONG TERM... (Tomorrow through Friday) Issued at 1216 PM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025 Pressure gradient begins to strengthen on Saturday and more so into Sunday with southerly winds increasing and becoming gusty by Sunday afternoon especially across NE OK. Temps will also continue to trend upward with unseasonably warm highs expected area wide through the weekend. Fire weather conditions will likely worsen by Sunday afternoon along and west of Highway 75 where drier dewpoints are expected and within the corridor of longest duration from wetting rains. Winds relax on Monday as a weak front moves into NE OK. This boundary will be overspread by the plume of tropical moisture from decaying systems off the coast of Mexico. A broad fetch of rains are likely along the extent of the boundary, however the southward advance of the front and associated rains continues to be shown as minimal into the local region. Rain chances will largely be confined to NE OK and overall amounts are likely to light. Any cooling associated with the front and/or increasing cloud cover will be brief as stronger ridging expands into the southern Plains by mid week. Expect dry weather and temps well above normal for much of next week. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 635 PM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025 Overall, VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the forecast period for all sites. The only exception pertains to thunderstorms that impacted BVO early this evening, which have moved south and may affect TUL and/or RVS early in the forecast period. Brief heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and occasional lightning may occur with this activity, as well as locally reduced vsbys. However, convection has recently shown a downward trend and would expect this to continue as instability decreases with southward extent and loss of daytime heating. Otherwise, quiet conditions are forecast with a mix of mid and high clouds through tomorrow with generally light and variable winds. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
