SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE CONTINUING TO PUSH ACROSS THE REGION  
WITH THE COLD FRONT, WHERE THEY LOOK TO CONTINUE STRENGTHENING  
INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. AS OF NOON, THERE WAS STILL A PRETTY  
STOUT CAPPING INVERSION OVERHEAD, BUT THAT SHOULD CONTINUE TO  
ERODE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THIS  
INVERSION LIMITS THE OVERALL SEVERE POTENTIAL GIVEN A LACK OF  
DAYTIME HEATING, BUT THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN.  
 
THE OVERALL THINKING FROM THIS MORNING STILL STANDS REGARDING  
EVOLUTION AND TIMING FOR THE SEVERE WEATHER, AS THUNDERSTORMS WILL  
DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE MAIN  
THREAT WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND ISOLATED  
TORNADOES, AS SHEAR PROFILES REMAIN QUITE IMPRESSIVE. HOWEVER, THE  
SEVERE POTENTIAL LOOKS TO DRAMATICALLY DECREASE ONCE THE SUN GOES  
DOWN, WITH THE SEVERE THREAT COMPLETELY EXITING THE REGION ONCE  
THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH. IN TURN, THE WINDOW FOR SEVERE  
WEATHER IS CURRENTLY OPEN, AND IT WILL LIKELY REMAIN OPEN FOR THE  
NEXT 8-10 HOURS AS PEAK HEATING ALLOWS, OR BEFORE STORMS GET  
UNDERCUT BY THE EAST MOVING FRONT.  
 
BEHIND THE FRONT, WINDS SHOULD SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST BY TOMORROW  
EVENING, REALLY ALLOWING FOR COLD AIR ADVECTION TO GET UNDERWAY.  
LOWS TONIGHT WILL RANGE IN THE MID-40S TO LOW-60S, BEFORE FALLING  
TOMORROW INTO THE LOW 40S AND 50S.

LONG TERM
 
 
(WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY)  
ISSUED AT 119 PM CST MON NOV 18 2024  
 
THE MAIN STORY FOR THE LONG-TERM WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE SWING IN  
TEMPERATURES BEHIND THE COLD FRONT, AS STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION  
REALLY BEGINS TO WORK INTO THE REGION BY WEDNESDAY. WHILE  
WIDESPREAD FREEZING TEMPERATURES ARE CURRENTLY NOT ANTICIPATED,  
IT'S NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT A FEW LOCATIONS COULD SEE  
FREEZING TEMPERATURES COME THURSDAY MORNING. THIS NORTHWEST FLOW  
WILL LINGER INTO THE WEEKEND, ALLOWING FOR THIS SEASONABLE FEEL TO  
REMAIN THROUGH THEN. HOWEVER, WEAK UPPER-LEVEL RIDGING WILL BEGIN  
TO WORK BACK INTO THE REGION TOWARDS SUNDAY, WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR  
TEMPERATURES TO BEGIN TO REBOUND TOWARDS NEXT WORKWEEK. ASIDE FROM  
THAT, NO WEATHER THREATS OR IMPACTS ARE ANTICIPATED IN THE LONG-  
TERM FORECAST.
