NEAR TERM
(TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 321 PM CDT WED SEP 10 2025
DRY CONDITIONS CONTINUE ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AS AN UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE CONTINUES TO NUDGE ITS WAY EASTWARD AND SUBSEQUENT SFC
HIGH PRESSURE RESIDES OVER OUR AREA. LOW TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT
ARE FORECAST TO DROP INTO THE LOW TO MID 60S UNDER MOSTLY CLEAR
SKIES. LACK OF SUFFICIENT MOISTURE SHOULD DETER FOG FORMATION
OVERNIGHT.
SHORT TERM
(THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 1108 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2025
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN THE DOMINANT WEATHER FEATURE ACROSS THE
REGION LATE THIS WEEK, GRADUALLY BUILDING INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND MID SOUTH FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. MOSTLY
SUNNY AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE EACH DAY, WITH HEAT
BEGINNING TO BUILD, ESPECIALLY BY THE WEEKEND. AMPLE SUNSHINE WILL
ALLOW HIGHS TO REACH THE LOW TO POTENTIALLY MID 90S, ESPECIALLY BY
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. THE DRIER AIR MASS WILL HELP KEEP DEWPOINTS
AND RH VALUES IN CHECK, WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES REMAINING BELOW
100 DEGREES.
LONG TERM
(SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1047 PM CDT TUE SEP 9 2025
THE UPPER RIDGE/HIGH WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE DOMINATING FACTOR ON
WEATHER HERE LOCALLY WITH A MUCH WARMER AIRMASS PERSISTING INTO
NEXT WEEK. WITH LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE IN PLACE, WE WILL MAINTAIN
A DRY FORECAST THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD AND THE MAIN IMPACT
WILL TRANSITION MORE TO THE DRY HEAT. THANKFULLY, THE BETTER
MOISTURE WILL BE SUPPRESSED TO OUR SOUTH WHICH WILL HELP LIMIT
HEAT INDICES BELOW THE 100 DEGREE MARK. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE ON
THE WARMER SIDE TOO, DROPPING TO THE MID TO UPPER 60S BUT
THANKFULLY NOT AS BAD AS THE HOT, MUGGY NIGHTS WE SAW NEARLY A
MONTH AGO. SO HANG IN THERE, SUMMER IS NOT OVER YET! REMEMBER TO
PRACTICE HEAT SAFETY AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK
AND WEEKEND AND NEVER LEAVE PEOPLE OR PETS UNATTENDED IN VEHICLES!
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 731 PM CDT WED SEP 10 2025
VFR/SKC CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST AT THE HSV/MSL TERMINALS THROUGH
LATE THIS EVENING. HOWEVER, LIFT RELATED TO AN UPPER-AIR
DISTURBANCE DROPPING SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD INTO THE LOWER OH VALLEY
WILL LEAD TO AN INCREASING COVERAGE OF MID-LEVEL CLOUDS BY 5Z THAT
WILL TRANSITION INTO A SCT CU FIELD BY 16Z. ALTHOUGH LATEST MODEL
GUIDANCE OFFERS A WIDE VARIETY OF SOLUTIONS REGARDING THE
POTENTIAL COVERAGE OF LIGHT PRECIPITATION (ASSOCIATED WITH THE
SAME MECHANISM) EARLY TOMORROW MORNING, IT IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE
THAT SOME VERY LGT SHRA OR SPRINKLES MAY OCCUR AT OR IN THE
VICINITY OF THE TERMINALS BTWN 10-14Z. A SLIGHTLY GREATER RISK FOR
SHOWERS (AND PERHAPS A FEW TSRA) WILL OCCUR TOMORROW AFTN,
BEGINNING AROUND 20Z. DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING THE SPATIAL
COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WE HAVE NOT MENTIONED ANYTHING IN THE TAFS
AT THIS POINT, BUT A PROB30 GROUP MAY EVENTUALLY BE WARRANTED FROM
20-2Z.
