Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for De Soto, KS

DISCUSSION
Issued at 254 AM CST Mon Nov 10 2025

Our cold snap is in full swing with a closed mid to upper low just south of the Great Lakes Region and stout mid to upper level ridging over the western U.S. At the surface, high pressure remain dominant over the Great Plains which has resulted in fairly weak north/northwesterly winds and mostly clear skies. This has allowed early morning lows to be a few degrees cooler than yesterday morning, yielding the coldest temperatures we will see all week. Low temperatures this morning will stay mostly in the upper teens to low 20s. Wind chills will range in the single digits to the preteens, making outdoor conditions very uncomfortable for most. High temperatures today will range in the upper 30s to low 40s. Later this evening into tonight, the surface high tracks to the southeast of our area reorienting our winds out of the south/southwest which will spark a much need warming trend. This will allow temperatures Tuesday morning to be warmer than this morning. However, early morning lows for Tuesday will still be below freezing, staying in the 20s with the KC Metro in the low 30s. For the afternoon, temperatures warm significantly with increased southerly flow resulting in highs in the mid 50s to low 60s. This, coupled with relative humidity values in the low to mid 30s could result in slightly elevated fire weather concerns mainly for areas south of I- 70. But, there are some uncertainties with the forecast. A H500 shortwave pushes a weak surface low and partnering front through the area. Given the low amount of moisture with the front, precip chances remain non-existent, but additional cloud coverage could impede the effects of daytime heating, adding some uncertainty for high temperatures. If cloud coverage were to linger a little longer than anticipated, highs could possibly stay in the low to mid 50s.
For now, guidance suggests cloud coverage will be progressive enough for highs to reach the low 60s.

Higher mid to upper level heights associated with the approaching ridge will allow temperatures to continue to warm through the rest of this week. Well-above normal temperatures return by Friday with widespread highs in the 70s. For the weekend, the mid to upper level ridge continues its track to the east as troughing pushes through the Canadian provinces. A closed low approaches our area from the southwest returning precip chances (20-60%) across the area late Saturday into Sunday. There may be just enough instability for a few isolated thunderstorms, but for now, severe is not likely given a generally unfavorable environment (weak CAPE profiles, present CIN, and fairly stable lapse rates).
