TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A TROUGH DIGGING INTO THE
NORTHERN ROCKIES AND PLAINS, WITH ZONAL TO SLIGHTLY SOUTHWESTERLY
FLOW OVER THE LOCAL AREA. AT THE SURFACE, SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL
PERSIST, HELPING TO FILTER IN MOISTURE THROUGH THE DAY. AN ACTIVE
PATTERN CONTINUES ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA, AS THE ZONAL FLOW ALLOWS
WEAK SHORTWAVES TO TRAVERSE THE AREA. TO START THE PERIOD, A
WEAKENING LINE OF STORMS CONTINUES TO DRIFT SOUTHWARD ACROSS OUR
NORTHERN ZONES AND IS EXPECTED TO FIZZLE OUT WITHIN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS AS IT MOVES INTO MORE STABLE CONDITIONS. THERE MAY
BE SOME LINGERING SHOWERS AROUND DAYBREAK, BUT THESE WILL
DISSIPATE SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE. FURTHER TO OUR WEST, A WEAK
SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL INITIATE ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TODAY, WHICH WILL MOVE EASTWARD WITH TIME. GIVEN THE
ZONAL FLOW ALOFT AND THE ABUNDANCE OF SUNSHINE/MOISTURE, THESE
STORMS WILL LIKELY MOVE INTO THE AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS. THIS ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH AS IT
MAKES ITS WAY EASTWARD, AND WILL LIKELY DISSIPATE ALTOGETHER AS
IT REACHES THE I-65 CORRIDOR. INSTABILITY WILL BE ENOUGH TO ALLOW
STORMS TO MATURE, AND ANY THAT ARE ABLE TO MAINTAIN ROBUST
UPDRAFTS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS.
THE AFOREMENTIONED TROUGH AND SURFACE BOUNDARY TO OUR WEST WILL
MAKE VERY LITTLE PROGRESS ON TUESDAY, WITH ZONAL FLOW PERSISTING
OVER THE LOCAL AREA. THIS WILL CREATE A RINSE AND REPEAT SCENARIO,
WITH A QLCS DEVELOPING WELL TO OUR WEST AND THEN MOVING EASTWARD
THROUGH THE DAY ON TUESDAY. ONCE AGAIN OUR ENVIRONMENT WILL
FEATURE A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS AS THIS ACTIVITY REACHES OUR
WESTERN COUNTIES LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON. AND LIKE TODAY, THE
TIMING OF THIS ACTIVITY MOVING THROUGH WILL LIMIT HOW FAR EAST
THIS ACTIVITY WILL REACH, AS WE BEGIN TO STABILIZE AFTER SUNSET.
NOT ANTICIPATING MUCH IN THE WAY OF ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS, BUT A
FEW STRONGER STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SMALL HAIL AND
GUSTY WINDS ONCE AGAIN.
ASIDE FROM THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS, THE MAIN IMPACTS TO
THE LOCAL AREA THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WILL BE THE HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS. HIGHS WILL WARM INTO THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S EACH
AFTERNOON AND DEWPOINTS AREN'T EXPECTED TO MIX OUT, LIKELY
REMAINING IN THE LOWER 70S. THIS WILL CREATE HEAT INDICES NEARING
100 DEGREES TODAY AND TUESDAY. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL FALL INTO THE
UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S. /73
WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
A BROAD UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER MN/WI ON WEDNESDAY EVOLVES INTO A
LARGE UPPER TROF OVER THE EASTERN CONUS THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY,
WHICH THEN CONTINUES TO AMPLIFY INTO THE WEEKEND. A SURFACE LOW
WILL BE LOCATED OVER THE INTERIOR EASTERN STATES ON WEDNESDAY
ALONG WITH A TRAILING FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING ROUGHLY TO ACROSS
CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI AND NORTHERN ALABAMA. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS
EXPECTED TO DRIFT INTO THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND
MEANDER OVER THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE FINALLY
PUSHING OFF INTO THE NORTHERN GULF ON FRIDAY AS THE UPPER TROF
PATTERN AMPLIFIES. A SERIES OF VIGOROUS SHORTWAVES AND THE
PROXIMITY OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SUPPORT LIKELY TO
CATEGORICAL POPS FOR WEDNESDAY, THEN LIKELY POPS FOLLOW FOR
THURSDAY. HAVE GONE WITH GOOD CHANCE TO LIKELY POPS FOR FRIDAY,
WITH THE HIGHER POPS NEAR THE COAST, THEN SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ARE
EXPECTED FOR SATURDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT. WILL NEED TO
CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR MAINLY NUISANCE TYPE FLOODING CONCERNS
UNTIL THE FRONT MOVES OUT OF THE AREA, AND SOME STRONG STORMS WILL
ALSO BE POSSIBLE MAINLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.
