DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 502 AM CDT TUE MAR 24 2026
FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF A DRY COLD FRONT, THE AREA REMAINS UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH PRESSURE. WITH THE CENTER OF THE SPRAWLING
HIGH LOCATED TO OUR NORTH ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND SHIFTING INTO
THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES, SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY
ESTABLISHED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK AND A RETURN TO MUCH
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES INTO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 80S F WITH
INCREASES IN HUMIDITY IS LIKELY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK.
WITH LITTLE IN THE WAY OF UPPER LEVEL ACTIVITY EXPECTED TO
DISTURB THIS PATTERN OF DEEP-LAYER RIDGING AND GENERAL SUBSIDENCE,
RAIN CHANCES WILL REMAIN LOW THROUGH THE NEXT 7 DAYS. THIS WILL
LIKELY EXACERBATE DEVELOPING DROUGHT CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA
AND COULD RESULT IN FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS AS FUELS BEGIN TO DRY
FURTHER ACROSS THE AREA. /86/
