348 AM CDT FRI JUL 31 2026
DISCUSSION
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED ACROSS THE UPPER-OH VALLEY WILL
GRADUALLY WEAKEN AND SHIFT EASTWARD THROUGH SATURDAY, ALLOWING
SOUTHERLY FLOW TO RETURN TO THE REGION AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING
COLD FRONT. ALTHOUGH THE NORTHWARD RETURN OF DEEP, TROPICAL
MOISTURE WILL INITIALLY BE SLOW TO OCCUR, A VERY MOIST AIRMASS
WILL OVERSPREAD THE REGION TONIGHT AND SATURDAY RESULTING IN AN
INCREASING COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS (SOME OF WHICH
COULD BE STRONG-SEVERE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT ON SATURDAY
AFTERNOON). SMOKE DISPERSION WILL BE FAIR TODAY, WITH MIXING
HEIGHTS OF 5000-5500 FT AND TRANSPORT WINDS AROUND 5 MPH. HOWEVER,
DISPERSION INDICES WILL IMPROVE TO GENERALLY GOOD ON SATURDAY AS
TRANSPORT WINDS STRENGTHEN TO 10-20 MPH.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: PATCHY MIST AND FOG MAY
OCCUR ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS MORNING.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
