DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 133 PM CDT THU JUN 4 2026
TONIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY...THE MAIN FOCUS DURING THE FORECAST
PERIOD WILL BE FROM THIS WEEKEND INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. AFTER
A COUPLE OF PLEASANT AND QUIET DAYS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA, RAIN
CHANCES WILL RETURN TO THE FORECAST OVER THE UPCOMING WEEKEND AS A
SLUG OF MOISTURE LIFTS NORTH OUT OF THE GULF AND INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY, WHILE WEAK DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH THE
REGION. THIS WILL RESULT IN A GOOD COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS
DEVELOPING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. WHILE
CURRENTLY NOT FORECAST, WITH PRECIPITABLE H2O VALUES OVER THE
WEEKEND ADVERTISED IN THE 2-2.5 INCH RANGE, RAINFALL COULD BE PRETTY
EFFICIENT AND HEAVY AT TIMES. AS A RESULT, SOME CONCERN FOR
FLOODING MAY ARISE AS WE MOVE INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL OF COURSE
CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED IN LATER FORECASTS.
AS ELUDED TO ABOVE, VERY HUMID CONDITIONS WILL ALSO RETURN TO THE
FORECAST AREA THIS WEEKEND, AND LINGER INTO NEXT WEEK. THIS DEEPLY
MOIST AIRMASS ACROSS THE REGION NEXT MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY WILL
KEEP SOME CHANCE FOR ISOLATED TO SCATTERED AFTERNOON CONVECTION IN
THE FORECAST. IT'LL ALSO BE DURING THIS TIMEFRAME WHERE THE CONCERN
FOR HEAT STRESS WILL BE ON THE RISE. AGAIN, THIS WILL CONTINUE TO
BE MONITORED IN LATER FORECASTS. /19/
