NEAR TERM
(TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 115 PM CDT TUE JUN 2 2026
IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DRY DAY ACROSS THE TN VALLEY. CURRENT
TEMPERATURES SIT IN THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S WITH NORTHEASTERLY
WINDS INTERMITTENTLY GUSTING 15-20MPH. THE GUSTS WILL WEAKEN WITH
SUNSET, HOWEVER LOOKS LIKE WINDS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED OVERNIGHT.
THIS COMBINED WITH THE DRIER AIR FILTERING IN SHOULD PREVENT
WIDESPREAD FOG FORMATION. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES
COOLER THAN LAST NIGHT, REACHING THE MID 50S TO LOWER 60S.
SHORT TERM
(WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 1024 AM CDT TUE JUN 2 2026
BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT: DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH FRIDAY!
THE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD INTO THE MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES
ON WEDNESDAY. THE EAST COAST TROUGH WILL BE SLOW TO PUSH OFF THE
COAST, SLOWING DOWN THE PROGRESSION OF THE RIDGE ON THURSDAY. AT
THE SAME TIME, A SHORTWAVE WILL DAMPEN THE AMPLIFICATION OF THE
RIDGE AND PUSH IT TO CENTER MORE OVER THE TN VALLEY THURSDAY INTO
FRIDAY. HIGHS WEDNESDAY TO FRIDAY WILL BE IN THE LOWER 80S BUT
WITH MUCH LOWER DEWPOINTS! LOWS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE UPPER 50S.
LONG TERM
(FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 1000 PM CDT MON JUN 1 2026
HIGH PRESSURE WILL KEEP LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE AND RELATIVELY DRY
AIR IN PLACE THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK AS UPPER RIDGING
INCHES TO THE EAST, RESULTING IN A STREAM OF GULF MOISTURE ACROSS
THE ARKLATEX REGION AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND. THE GOOD NEWS IS
THAT TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ON THE MILD SIDE WITH HIGHS IN THE
LOW TO MID 80S AND LOWS MAINLY IN THE LOW TO MID 60S. AS THE
AFOREMENTIONED RIDGE GETS CLOSER OVER THE WEEKEND, WE WILL SEE AN
INCREASE IN CLOUDINESS AS WELL AS LOW CHANCES FOR RAIN AND STORMS
OVER NW AL SATURDAY. THE SYNOPTIC PATTERN BECOMES A BIT MORE
COMPLICATED TOWARD THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE IS
SUPPRESSED TO OUR EAST WHILE AN UPPER LOW DIGS ACROSS THE
NORTHEAST. A SHORTWAVE WILL WORK TO SHIFT THE HIGHER MOISTURE AXIS
INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN US, BUT IT IS A BIT UNCLEAR AT THIS RANGE
WHEN AND WHERE THE BEST CHANCES FOR RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE. FOR NOW WE WILL STICK WITH BLENDED GUIDANCE WITH LOW TO MEDIUM
RAIN/STORM CHANCES SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY.
