.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 256 AM CDT Tue Oct 6 2026

Recent objective mesoanalysis depicted broad surface high pressure
extending over the Midwest and Great Lakes Vcty, w/ the Natural
State under the SWrn periphery of anticyclonic sfc flow. Thru the
week, H500 ridging is progged to build over the Wrn US, w/ mean
NWrly flow persisting acrs the Cntrl to Ern US. This wl keep sfc
high pressure in place over the Ern half of the US, w/ local high
pressure keeping the pattern settled, dry, and warm. Low temps
wl persist in the 40s to 50s, w/ afternoon highs topping out in
the upper 70s to low 80s.

By this weekend, low-end rain chances remain possible as weak and
detached upper-lvl cyclonic flow fm the west coast moves Ewrd
acrs the Rio Grande valley, and interacts w/ a developing tropical
system slowly moving Nwrd towards the Gulf coast. Greatest
confidence lies acrs the Ern half of the state for appreciable
rain chances and rain totals up to a half inch, though most wl
lkly see less than that to none over the next 7 days.
