Discussion

Issued at 1119 AM CDT Tue Oct 20 2026

Sprawling high pressure centered over the eastern and northeast CONUS combined with stable H5 ridging over the southern and central CONUS will bring quiet and stable weather to the region for the next week. Temperatures will be nearly the same each day, with highs in the lower to middle 70s and lows in the middle to upper 40s. The only mentionable weather concern will be for shallow (and possibly briefly dense) fog development early Wednesday morning near bodies of water (lakes, rivers, ponds, etc.). Have added fog to the forecast for these areas.

Aviation

Issued at 505 PM CDT Tue Oct 20 2026

Shallow ground fog will again be possible early Wednesday morning, primarily near bodies of water. CGI is most likely terminal to be impacted. Otherwise VFR conditions with calm or very light NE winds and only a few high clouds (primarily in the west).
