DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 145 PM CDT WED SEP 9 2026
THE UPPER RIDGE OVER THE AREA WEAKENS AND MOVES EAST AS A BROAD
TROUGH MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. AHEAD OF THIS TROUGH, A
WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL MOVE INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND
STALL BEFORE DISSIPATING FRIDAY NIGHT. AS THE RIDGE WEAKENS AND
THE TROUGH APPROACHES, DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL BE PULLED BACK
INTO THE AREA ON THURSDAY WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES CLIMBING
BACK ABOVE 2 INCHES. WEAK TROUGHING PERSISTS WEST OF THE MS RIVER
THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THESE FACTORS WILL COMBINE TO GENERATE
SCATTERED TO LOCALLY NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY,
STARTING IN THE MORNING NEAR THE COAST AND SPREADING INLAND
THROUGH THE DAY. THE RIDGE BUILDS BACK ACROSS THE AREA EARLY NEXT
WEEK, RESULTING IN LOWER RAIN CHANCES AND WARMING TEMPS.
THE CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL KEEP TEMPS IN THE UPPER 80S AND LOW 90S
THURSDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. LOW TO MID 90S RETURN FOR THE START
OF NEXT WEEK. A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS CONTINUES THROUGH
