DISCUSSION
(WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1022 PM CDT TUE MAR 31 2026
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST THE
NEXT SEVERAL DAYS, PRIMARILY DRIVEN BY DIURNAL AND SEA BREEZE
ACTIVITY. A PATTERN WE'RE MUCH MORE USED TO SEEING DURING THE
SUMMER, NOT SPRING. HOWEVER, IT STILL LOOKS LIKE THE SECONDARY
TROUGH WILL GIVE THE STALLED TROUGH A KICK IN THE PANTS, PUSHING
THE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION INTO THE WEEKEND.
THIS IS WHERE MORE ORGANIZED RAIN CHANCES RETURN TO THE FORECAST, AS
A LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVES INTO THE REGION. THANKFULLY,
GIVEN THE FACT THAT THE BEST FORCING IS WELL TO THE NORTH, AND
LIMITED INSTABILITY, SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT CURRENTLY ANTICIPATED
WITH THESE STORMS. JUST SOME MUCH NEEDED RAINFALL. IN GENERAL, HALF
AN INCH TO AN INCH OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE DURING THIS TIMEFRAME,
WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING BEHIND THE FRONT TO START THE NEW
WORKWEEK.

SOME TEMPORARY REDUCTIONS TO VISIBILITY MAINLY AT KAUO. EXPECT LOW

FIRE WEATHER
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN IN THE FORECAST,
BEFORE MORE ORGANIZED RAIN CHANCES RETURN BY THE WEEKEND. GIVEN DRY
FUELS, FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL REMAIN HIGH, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE
INCREASED LIGHTNING CHANCES THE NEXT FEW DAYS. MINRH VALUES WILL
GENERALLY LINGER IN THE 40% RANGE, BEFORE INCREASING AHEAD OF THE
FRONT COME SUNDAY.
