SHORT TERM
(TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1010 PM CDT MON APR 6 2026
FAIR WEATHER CONTINUES ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE SHORT-TERM
WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WHICH WILL BECOME MORE ZONAL ON
WEDNESDAY. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE TO OUR EAST BY THEN AND
LOW-LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME SOUTHERLY. THUS, WEDNESDAY WILL BE THE
BEGINNING OF A WARMING PERIOD THAT WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND,
THOUGH MOISTURE INCREASES WILL NOT BE ALONG FOR THE RIDE.
LONG TERM
(THURSDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1010 PM CDT MON APR 6 2026
RIDGING WILL STRENGTHEN ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST MID TO LATE WEEK
WHICH WILL RESULT IN CONTINUED WARMTH AND DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS
THE TENNESSEE VALLEY. IN FACT, RECORD HIGHS ARE IN JEOPARDY THIS
WEEKEND WITH HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S. UNFORTUNATELY NO RAIN
IS IN THE FORECAST DUE TO THE RIDGE DEFLECTING MOISTURE/FLOW TO
OUR WEST/NORTHWEST THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THIS IS NOT
GOOD NEWS FOR WORSENING DROUGHT CONDITIONS IN THE REGION. HOWEVER,
THERE'S SOME HOPE FOR RAIN EARLY TO MID NEXT WEEK BUT LATEST NBM
DATA KEEPS POPS 10-30% AT THIS TIME.
