LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A RATHER AMPLIFIED RIDGE OVER THE
PLAINS AND MISSISSIPPI VALLEY, WITH A LOW SPINNING OVER THE EASTERN
GULF AS WELL AS OVER THE NORTHERN ROCKIES. AT THE SURFACE, WINDS
ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA HAVE BEEN RELATIVITY WEAK AND UNDER PLENTIFUL
SUNSHINE, TEMPS HAVING RISEN INTO THE LOWER 90S. THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE DAY, WE MAY SEE ISOLATED CONVECTION LATER IN THE
DAY, AS THE INFLUENCE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED RIDGE LESSENS AS IT
NUDGES WEST A BIT. A FEW BRIEF WIND GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE WITH ANY
STORM THAT DEVELOPS AND, LIKE IS TYPICAL, ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY
DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET.
THE UPPER LOW OVER THE EASTERN GULF WILL REMAIN NEARLY STEADY STATE
AS THE RIDGE TO OUR WEST MAINTAINS SOME HOLD THROUGH SUNDAY. DESPITE
THIS, THE COVERAGE OF RAIN ON SUNDAY IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHER THAN
NORMAL, AS WEAKNESSES IN THE RIDGE AID IN CONVECTION INITIATED BY
THE SEA BREEZE. THE BETTER CHANCES WILL BE ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN AND
EASTERN ZONES, WHERE SCATTERED TO POTENTIALLY NUMEROUS STORMS
DEVELOP. LIKE TODAY, GUSTY WINDS ARE POSSIBLE, ALONG WITH LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL. THE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AND RETROGRADE TO
THE WEST AS THE LOW CURRENTLY OVER THE ROCKIES SHIFTS EASTWARD
THROUGH THE PLAINS. SIMILAR CONDITIONS ARE ANTICIPATED FOR MONDAY,
THOUGH WITH LESSER COVERAGE OF STORMS. BY TUESDAY, THE RIDGE WILL BE
WEST OF THE AREA, WHILE A SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH THE UPPER
MISSISSIPPI AND OHIO VALLEYS. AS THE SHORTWAVE CONTINUES TO MOVE
EASTWARD, THE LOW OVER THE GULF WILL BECOME ABSORBED IN THE
SHORTWAVE AND THE SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE WELL EAST OF THE AREA BY THE
END OF THE WEEK. UPPER RIDGING WILL BUILD IN ONCE AGAIN FOR THE
LATTER HALF OF THE WORKWEEK, BRINGING A RETURN OF DRY AND HOT
CONDITIONS. /73
