An upper-level cut off circulation is present over the Rocky Mountains and western Great Plains, creating a downstream zonal flow pattern over our area. Just south of this cut off circulation on the surface is a developing cyclone that is close to reaching maturation. In our area, a high pressure system to our northeast will be moving offshore, creating a southwesterly flow regime that will increase temperatures throughout the area while also increasing humidity by transporting moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. As the upper-level cut off circulation propagates to the northeast, the surface cyclone will also move northeast and become a mature, occluded system. Some rain is expected with this system prior to the passage of both the warm and cold fronts. The warm front is expected to pass our area Tuesday Night, bringing warmer temperatures for Wednesday before the cold front cools things down Wednesday night.
