.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 111 AM CDT Thu Aug 27 2026

As of 1 AM CDT, temperatures across the region are in the upper 50s
to low 60s with relatively calm winds out of the northwest to north.
High pressure is in place again today with a low off to our west.
The daylight hours today will be dry, and there is a slight chance
of some showers/storms after midnight. These precipitation chances
increase to about 25-30% after sunrise and last through the
afternoon. Chances increase again to 50-75% Friday evening mainly
east of the Missouri River as the low off to our west moves into the
region. There is a Marginal risk (level 1 out of 5) for severe
storms east of the MO river. Hazards will be 1 inch hail and 60 mph
wind gusts. This low will continue to move slowly across the area
Saturday, finally exiting the region late Sunday. Precipitation
chances remain during this time frame. Monday looks to be dry with
some slight chances for precipitation returning Tuesday through the
end of the forecast.

Temperatures continue the around average trend of the last several
days with highs generally in the high 70s to 80s, perhaps reaching
90 west river Friday and Saturday. There could be a slight haze
to the sky today and Friday as another round of elevated smoke
makes its way across the region. Winds with that incoming low
will be in the 25-35 mph range Friday afternoon mainly in
central SD.
