.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 209 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
Tranquil conditions across Iowa today with high pressure
allowing for light wind and clear skies. With dry conditions in
place deep mixing has allowed temperatures to warm into the low
to mid 80s so far this afternoon. The dry air and deep mixing
has resulted in temperatures a few degrees too low the past few
days, so increased Monday maximum temperatures over NBM to
account for this. High pressure will remain in place throughout
the work week with highs in the 80s and lows in the upper 50s to
low 60s. The large blocking pattern is largely unchanged until
the upcoming weekend a when a trough may pass across the area,
bringing the next chance for precipitation. Uncertainty remains
at this time range and is enhanced due to uncertainty in how the
block high will interact with the two tropical systems off the
east coast this week.
