12Z UPPER AIR ANALYSIS AND GOES WATER VAPOR SATELLITE DEPICT AN
OMEGA BLOCK OVER THE ROCKIES WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE
EASTERN UNITED STATES. LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A 1029 MB
SURFACE HIGH CENTERED OVER NEW ENGLAND AND EXTENDING SOUTHWEST
INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THIS IS RESULTING IN MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES AND 11 AM TEMPERATURES IN THE MIDDLE 70S TO LOWER
80S.
A TRANQUIL PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE OMEGA BLOCKING PATTERN SHIFTS EAST
TOWARDS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. LATEST NAEFS AND ESAT ANALYSIS
INDICATES TEMPERATURES WILL INCREASE TOWARDS THE 90TH PERCENTILE
DURING THIS PERIOD. AS A RESULT, CONFIDENCE IS HIGH WITH THE
WARMER TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE MIDDLE 90S TO APPROACHING
100 DEGREES AS INDICATED BY THE LATEST NBM AND OTHER LONG-RANGE
DATASETS. LOWER DEWPOINTS WILL PRECLUDE ANY RISK FOR HEAT
ADVISORIES AT THIS TIME.
