.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 118 AM CST Fri Nov 14 2025
Warm air advection continues today, with temperatures even
warmer than yesterday. Widespread 50s and a few 60s along the
I-35 corridor and in the Brainerd Lakes area. As a trough
approaches, pressure gradients will tighten, leading to
strengthening winds out of the south. Sustained winds 10-15 mph
with gusts up to 25 mph throughout the day today.
Saturday, the cold front associated with the trough will move
through the Northland, bringing chances for precipitation.
Moisture with this system is limited, and it will need to work
to saturate the column before rain reaches the surface. With
these conditions, any accumulations will be little to none. As
temperatures decrease behind the cold front, any lingering
showers could see a few snowflakes mixed in, but the majority of
the precipitation should fall where conditions are still warm
and chances for snow mixed in continue to decrease. Winds will
reach their peak for Saturday as well. Winds will switch to the
northwest and increase during the morning with gusts reaching
around 30 mph CWA wide for the late morning and afternoon. For
the North Shore, CAA will be its strongest Saturday afternoon
and evening, which could cause (30% chance) occasional gusts
35-40 mph.
Temperatures will decrease closer to normal as a high pressure
moves over, with dry conditions and high temperatures in the
mid to upper 30s into the mid week. Another warm up is expected
with a ridge in the mid to late week, and chances for
precipitation also return. Global models still disagree on
placement and timing of precipitation, but agree of
precipitation occurring at some point.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 527 AM CST Fri Nov 14 2025
VFR conditions expected for the TAF period. A LLJ will slowly
move through the Northland this morning and tomorrow night.
LLWS will be possible at INL before surface winds increase later
this morning and HYR overnight tomorrow night. Lesser values of
wind shear are still possible at the other terminals, but will
likely occur when winds at the surface have increase over the
day and will be lower than 30 kt. Light rain showers are
possible late tonight, but they will be fighting the low level
dry air and probabilities for precipitation are to low to
include in the TAF (
