DISCUSSION  
 
ISSUED AT 222 AM CST THU NOV 14 2024  
 
OUR RAIN PRODUCING SYSTEM WILL COMPLETE ITS PASSAGE TODAY,  
EFFECTIVELY ENDING RAIN CHANCES BY/BEFORE MIDDAY.  
CLOUDS/DRIZZLE MAY LINGER TIL THEN AND COULD BE STUBBORN TO  
FULLY BREAK.  
 
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND UPPER HEIGHT RISES DO EVENTUALLY WIN  
OUT THEREAFTER, AS DRIER AIR WORKS ACROSS THE FA. WE'LL BE  
DOMINATED BY THIS HIGH PRESSURE REGIME THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND  
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK, SO AFTER A COUPLE POST STORM SYSTEM DAYS  
OF NEAR NORMAL TEMPS, WE'LL SEE THE MERCURY REBOUND THROUGH THE  
60S AND 40S TO AROUND 70 WITH SOME 50S LOWS FOR THE FIRST HALF  
OF THE NEW WEEK.  
 
BIG PATTERN CHANGES COMMENCE THEREAFTER. A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED LONG  
WAVE TROF ENGULFS THE COUNTRY'S MID SECTION BY MID WEEK, AND ITS  
INFLUENCE WILL BE INCOMING HERE, RESULTING IN OUR NEXT CHANCE OF  
PCPN BY DAYS 5-7 OF THE FORECAST. AS THE DEEP BARRELLED LOW(S)  
APPROACH, HEIGHTS FALL AND A MUCH COLDER AIR MASS LOOKS  
POSITIONED TO WORK ITS WAY INTO/ACROSS THE MID MS VALLEY. WE'LL  
SEE THOSE HIGHS NEAR 70 EARLY IN THE WEEK FALL BACK INTO THE 50S  
BY WEDNESDAY, WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF EVEN COLDER TEMPERATURES  
TO FINISH OUT THE WEEK AS THE HEART OF THE MEAN LONG WAVE  
MIGRATES ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WITH ITS AXIS EXTENDED SOUTHWARD  
ACROSS US.  
 
 
   
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/  
 
ISSUED AT 1121 AM CST THU NOV 14 2024  
 
LOW STRATUS WILL CONTINUE TODAY AND TONIGHT, POSSIBLY EXTENDING  
INTO FRIDAY AS TIME-HEIGHTS AND POINT SOUNDINGS SHOW SHALLOW  
MOISTURE LINGERING. MOSTLY MVFR EXPECTED FOR ALL SITES, ALTHOUGH  
A FEW BREAKS ARE POSSIBLE PER LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY. ANY  
BREAKS WOULD BE BRIEF. CLOUDS WILL SLOWLY BEGIN TO SCATTER FROM  
WEST TO EAST LATE IN THE PERIOD. NORTH WINDS AROUND 5-10 KTS  
THIS AFTERNOON WILL SUBSIDE OVERNIGHT.
