ANOTHER ROUND OF PLEASANT WEATHER CONDITIONS IN THE FORECAST TODAY
AS SFC RIDGING CONTINUES TO SPREAD ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST CONUS. SKY
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN CLEAR THIS MORNING WITH MORNING LOWS IN THE
LOW TO MID 50S AREAWIDE. PATCHY FOG MAY BE POSSIBLE ALONG AND
SOUTH OF HWY 84 THIS MORNING AND LATER TONIGHT, BUT DENSE FOG
PROBABILITIES REMAIN LOW AT THIS TIME. CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON
WILL REMAIN QUIET UNDER CLEAR SKIES. LOOK FOR DAYTIME HIGHS TO
PEAK INTO THE LOW 80S AREAWIDE. PLEASANT CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE
HEADING INTO TONIGHT WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS DIPPING INTO THE MID TO
UPPER 50S ACROSS OUR AREA.
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL ADVECT WARM AIR INTO THE REGION HEADING INTO
THE WEEKEND ALLOWING FOR TEMPERATURES TO UNDERGO A WARMING TREND.
LOOK FOR HIGHS TO RANGE FROM THE LOW TO MID 80S AND NIGHTTIME LOWS
TO RANGE IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOW 60S.
TEMPERATURES WILL START TO COOL SLIGHTLY ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST CONUS
MONDAY INTO TUESDAY AS LONG TERM GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW A DRY
FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVING THROUGH THE REGION. AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY
PUSHES SOUTH TOWARDS THE GULF COAST, INCREASED RETURN FLOW WILL
DEVELOP OVER THE OUR AREA. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR TEMPERATURES TO
REBOUND INTO THE 80S WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. ANOTHER BRIEF COOL
DOWN IN TEMPERATURES IS POSSIBLE LOOKING AHEAD INTO FRIDAY AS
ANOTHER DRY FRONT PUSHES SOUTH TOWARDS OUR AREA. /CR/
