UPDATE
Issued at 956 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
RH (40-60 percent) and winds (5-10mph) have sufficiently
dropped off this evening to quell any fire weather concerns for
the overnight. Looks for lows to drop into the upper 40s for
some with most only seeing low 50s while clear skies will allow
for prime radiational cooling through due to very dry dewpoints
not expecting any fog.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 332 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
...Synopsis...
Ridging prevails across the Northern Plains today through early next
week, bringing continued warm and dry weather to the region. Our
next chance for precipitation looks to be late Tuesday into
Wednesday as a shortwave moves through northwest Minnesota. This
will be the first of several chances as we head into the second half
of next week. As the H5 ridge continues east, southwest flow forms
across western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. This will bring a
potentially unsettled pattern into the area late next week and into
the weekend.
...Near Critical Fire Weather Through Late this Afternoon...
RH values are currently in the 20 to 30 percent range across much of
the area, with northwest winds of 10 to 20 mph. Dew points will
slowly increase into the 40s this evening and bring the RH values
into the 40 to 50 percent range as temperatures fall. Winds are not
expected to increase, although a few gusts just over 20 mph are
possible.
