.SHORT TERM...
(Through tonight )
Issued at 1204 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
Mid level trough axis currently extends from central KS into W TX
and is marked by the corridor of moisture and ongoing scattered
convection. This feature makes slow eastward progress through
Tuesday especially with southern extent. Expect isolated to
scattered convection to either persist and/or redevelop in
advance of the wave with precip chances increasing northwest of
the I-44 corridor overnight into early Tuesday. Dry low level
airmass remain in place on periphery of the sfc ridge limiting
eastward advance of the precip. A few high based storms could
briefly be strong but otherwise a low impact precip window.

.LONG TERM...
(Tomorrow through Monday)
Issued at 1204 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
Wave weakens and loses influence by Tuesday evening as the mid
level ridge axis becomes more aligned through the local region.
The favored corridor of convection will likely focus more west of
the forecast area with very low chances spreading into NE OK.
This pattern remains largely in place into the weekend with
heights rising as upper ridging strengthens through the central
CONUS. Temps will trend upward and above seasonal normals while
dry weather continues.

(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1204 PM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
VFR conditions expected through the forecast period. Weakening
showers in northwest flow aloft will move into northern OK after
midnight and again around daybreak Tuesday with low threat of new
convection through late morning. Dry low level airmass will
result in high cloud bases and VFR ceilings if coverage can be
maintained at KBVO. Winds will remain light south-southeast during
daytime mixing periods.
