.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 116 AM CST Fri Dec 19 2025

A cold front pushed SE through the state on Thu afternoon...with
precip ending from NW to SE...and NWRLY winds ushering in
drier...cooler air. Pressure gradient behind this front was fairly
tight...resulting in some significant gusts at times over 40 kts.
However...these winds were gradually lessening over about 2-4
hrs...though some breezy NWRLY winds continued with gusts over 30
kts at times. Sustained winds early this morning were remaining
below 20 kts...mainly in the 10 to 20 kts range.

Winds will continue to relax by midday as SFC high pressure moves
over the region. Slightly cooler near normal conditions and much
drier air will settle across the state for this Fri. With the
overall lack of widespread heavy rainfall...have kept dewpts on the
lower end of NBM guidance...but winds will remain low enough by mid
afternoon to keep wildfire hazards limited.

SRLY flow will return tonight and especially for Sat as high
pressure shifts east. Moisture levels will rebound again as a
result...but a new front will be dropping south into the state late
Sat afternoon. Highs will warm above normal ahead of this
front...but the new front will bring another shot of cooler and
drier air to the state Sat night through Sun. Some chances for SHRA
will return to the forecast Sat night through Sun as this front
moves through...mainly limited to SRN/SERN sections however as the
front slows south of AR. Some rain chances may lift back north Mon
into Tue as the front lifts back north with ridging aloft increasing
over the region.

SRLY flow will persist into the rest of the forecast as the upper
level ridging intensifies over the Gulf Coast and SRN MS River
Valley Regions. Precip chances will become low once again...but more
significantly...well above normal conditions are becoming more
likely late in the forecast. Temps will warm into the 70s for highs
for most areas...potentially approaching 80. This will end up being
20-25 deg above normal.
