MORNING AND AFTERNOON HOURS EACH DAY OVER THE FIRST HALF OF THIS
WEEK.
DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 300 PM CDT SUN SEP 13 2026
THROUGH MONDAY: AS ANTICIPATED PREVIOUSLY, STORMS HAVE ONCE AGAIN
DEVELOPED WITH STRONG DAYTIME HEATING AND ARE MAINLY FOCUSED OVER
THE SOUTHEAST TWO THIRDS OF THE AREA. A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR
MICROBURSTS WITH VERTICAL TOTALS NEAR 26 DEG C AND DCAPE NEAR
1500 J/KG IS SUPPORTING A FEW INTENSE STORMS WITH STRONG TO
MARGINALLY SEVERE WIND GUSTS. THIS STORM THREAT SHOULD CONTINUE
TO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. THE STORM THREAT FOR MONDAY SHOULD
SHIFT A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH AND WEST WITH COVERAGE A LITTLE LESS.
OTHERWISE, DANGEROUS HEAT CONTINUES TO BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN,
AND THE HEAT ADVISORY WAS EXTENDED TO MONDAY AND EXPANDED TO
INCLUDE NORTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. /EC/
TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY: THE SUBTROPICAL HIGH WILL STRENGTHEN OVER
OUR REGION AS WE GO LATER INTO THE WEEK WITH THE CENTER OF THE
HIGH JUST TO OUR NORTH. THIS WILL RESULT IN LOW LEVEL FLOW
BECOMING MORE EASTERLY OVER THE MID TO LATTER PORTIONS OF THE
WEEK, WHICH WILL EVENTUALLY USHER IN A RELATIVELY DRIER AIRMASS,
ESPECIALLY BY THURSDAY. THIS AIRMASS WILL STILL SUPPORT HOT DAYS,
BUT WITH DEWPOINTS DROPPING INTO 60S AND PERHAPS THE 50S, THIS
WILL NOTABLY REDUCE HEAT STRESS DANGER THROUGH THE END OF THE
WEEK. WHILE DAYS WILL STILL BE RELATIVELY WARM, MORNINGS WILL SEE
TEMPS DIPPING INTO THE 60S MORE OFTEN ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.
DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE AGAIN AROUND FRIDAY
INTO SATURDAY, WITH RETURNING POTENTIAL FOR DIURNAL CONVECTION
EACH DAY. /DL/EC/
