DISCUSSION
 
 
ISSUED AT 258 PM CST SAT DEC 21 2024  
 
REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND: COLD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL HAVE  
THE GREATEST INFLUENCE ON WEATHER FOR THE LOWER MS VALLEY REGION  
THIS WEEKEND. DRY AND SEASONABLY COLD CONDITIONS (~5 TO 10 F BELOW  
NORMAL) WITH FREEZING OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED.  
 
MONDAY THROUGH CHRISTMAS EVE: DRY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE, BUT  
EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THE UPPER LEVEL  
FLOW BECOMING MORE ZONAL AND PACIFIC IN ORIGIN WHILE SURFACE WINDS  
BECOME MORE SOUTHEASTERLY.  
 
CHRISTMAS DAY THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK: A SERIES OF MID  
LATITUDE SHORTWAVE TROUGHS WILL TRAVERSE THE NATION AND IMPACT THE  
FORECAST AREA. AS THE SURFACE WARM SECTOR INCREASES WITH EACH  
APPROACHING TROUGH, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SEVERE WEATHER MAY BECOME  
A CONCERN, ESPECIALLY AS WE GO INTO FRI/SAT, SO BE SURE TO MONITOR  
FOR UPDATES. /EC/
