.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Friday night)
Issued at 1155 PM CST Wed Dec 24 2025

A ridge of high pressure remains across the southern plains for
the next couple of days. The ridge is preventing any moisture from
arriving in the panhandles keeping conditions dry and fair. That
being said the southern plains is being influenced by the large
scale trough that is over the western CONUS. This is mainly
manifesting as a tighter pressure gradient over the region that in
turn is causing the breezy and gusty winds. These winds are mainly
from the southwest to west which is bringing in hotter
downsloping air. The heat from the winds will be coupled with the
subsidence heating of the high pressure to create far above normal
temperatures. This will see highs near or even at record high
levels across the panhandles for the next couple of days. Since
conditions are both dry and windy elevated to even critical fire
conditions will be present over the panhandles. Be fire safe and
let our fire fighters a break to enjoy Christmas.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday through next Wednesday)
Issued at 1155 PM CST Wed Dec 24 2025

There is a high chance that the high pressure will still hold
across the southern plains to Saturday before weakening its grip
Saturday evening. This will continue to cause the hot, dry, and
windy conditions across the panhandles. Fire weather remains a
concern for Saturday due to the expected windy and dry conditions.

Sunday has a high chance of seeing a weather system finally push
out the high pressure and move across the southern plains. This
will finally break the streak of hot weather across the
panhandles with a large drop in the temperatures. In fact it is
more likely than not for the temperatures to actually fall below
normal late Sunday into Monday. Moisture remains fleeting with
this system having a high chance of being dry with only gusty
winds marking it passage. Still if we get the low chance for
moisture then minor accumulations of precipitation may occur
mainly in the western portions of the panhandles.

This brief cooldown does not seem likely to last as high pressure
has a moderate to high chance of building back across the southern
plains for mid next week. If this occurs then it is most likely
for the temperatures to go above normal across the panhandles for
another time.
