- SEASONABLY HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL FUEL SCATTERED DAILY

OF DAMAGING WINDS. HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ACCOMPANY ALL STORMS.
DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 253 PM CDT SAT JUL 12 2025
WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE CONVECTIVE LINE THROUGH SOUTHWEST
INDIANA, THE PRIMARY FOCUS FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON WILL
BE OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE QUAD STATE. MLCAPE VALUES
AROUND 2500J/KG WILL SUPPORT ROBUST UPDRAFTS, BUT THE SHEAR
REMAINS WEAK, SO DAMAGING WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY
SEVERE THREAT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES OVER
8C/KM AND DCAPE VALUES OVER 1300J/KG ARE FOCUSED OVER WEST
KENTUCKY, SO THE DAMAGING WIND THREAT WOULD SEEM TO INCREASE AS
THE STORMS GRADUALLY DEVELOP FARTHER SOUTH AND EAST ACROSS THE
AREA. WITH THE STORMS LINED UP EAST TO WEST FROM CAPE COUNTY TO
WEBSTER COUNTY, THERE IS ALSO A SOMEWHAT HEIGHTENED CONCERN FOR
HEAVY RAINFALL AND ISOLATED FLOODING ISSUES.
THE FORECAST FOR THE UPCOMING WEEK, IS BASICALLY A BROKEN RECORD
WITH NEAR NORMAL HEAT AND HUMIDITY SUPPORTING ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY. GREATER
COVERAGE IS LIKELY SUNDAY AS THE TAIL-END OF AN UPPER
DISTURBANCE PROVIDES A LITTLE EXTRA LIFT. THERE ARE SOME SIGNS
THAT HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT MAY TRY TO BUILD NORTHEAST OVER THE
QUAD STATE AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEKEND, WHICH MAY EVENTUALLY
PROVIDE FOR A FEW DRY DAYS.
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/
ISSUED AT 1159 PM CDT SAT JUL 12 2025
ANYWHERE MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS CLEAR TONIGHT WILL BE ABLE TO
QUICKLY DEVELOP FOG ALTHOUGH THE PREVAILING SATELLITE TRENDS
SEEM TO BE THAT WE STAY CLOUDED UP MOST EVERYWHERE TO THE POINT
VISIBILITY STAYS UP. CONVECTION THEN BECOMES THE NEXT CONCERN
WITH A WINDOW FOR THAT OPENING IN THE LATE MORNING AND
AFTERNOON, SIMILAR TO WHAT THE REGION SAW ON SATURDAY.
