KEY MESSAGES
ISSUED AT 253 PM CDT THU SEP 3 2026
- NOTABLE IMPACTS FROM THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION
EDOUARD WILL END BY FRIDAY ACROSS THE FOUR STATE REGION.
- REDUCED CLOUD AND RAIN COVERAGE WILL INTRODUCE MORE ABOVE
NORMAL SUMMER HEAT THROUGH THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK
(UPPER 90S LIKELY).
- DAILY CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL RETURN (MAINLY
SOUTH OF I-20) LATER THIS WEEKEND INTO MOST OF NEXT WEEK.
DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 253 PM CDT THU SEP 3 2026
AS OF 2 PM CDT, THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION EDOUARD ARE
CENTERED JUST SOUTH OF THE DALLAS/FORT WORTH METROPLEX WITH
ATTENDANT RAIN BANDS EXTENDING FURTHER INTO THE TEXAS HILL
COUNTRY. AS RIDGING REBUILDS WESTWARD FROM THE MID-SOUTH TO ACROSS
THE GREAT PLAINS OVER THE WEEKEND, IT WILL ACT TO SHOVE THE
CIRCULATION FURTHER SOUTH INTO TEXAS/MEXICO AND AWAY FROM
NORTHEAST TEXAS. THIS RIDGE POSITION TO OUR NORTH SETS UP MORE
ZONAL THIS USHERS IN A GRADUAL RETURN TO ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES
(MAXIMUMS IN THE UPPER 90S/MINIMUMS IN THE LOW-TO-MID 70S). WITH
DEW POINTS REMAINING IN THE LOW 70S THROUGH THE WEEKEND, THE
POTENTIAL FOR HEAT HAZARD PRODUCT ISSUANCE ALSO REMAINS ELEVATED
(ESPECIALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF THE I-30 CORRIDOR INTO SOUTH
ARKANSAS).
MEDIUM-RANGE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A WINDOW OF SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
FOR OUR GREATEST CHANCES (25 TO 50 PERCENT) OF TEMPERATURES
REACHING OR EXCEEDING 100 DEGREES, ESPECIALLY NORTH OF THE I-20
CORRIDOR WHERE AIR REMAINS MORE SUBSIDENT. LONG-RANGE GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS SOMEWHAT WESTERLY ZONAL FLOW ALOFT AND ALONG THE BASE OF
RIDGING THAT SETS UP A SOMEWHAT UNEVENTFUL SYNOPTIC PATTERN. THAT
SAID, THE CONVECTION THAT DOES DEVELOP WILL MOST LIKELY BE IN THE
FORM OF A DIURNAL PATTERN WITH THE BEST CHANCE OF RAIN SOUTH OF
THE I-20 CORRIDOR UNDER LESS INHIBITION FROM RIDGING TO THE NORTH.
WPC QPF VALUES STILL SUGGEST ONLY AN ADDITIONAL 0.10-0.25 INCHES
OF RAIN SOUTH OF I-20 OUTSIDE OF PRECIPITATION FROM T.D. EDOUARD,
MAKING IT THE LAST REMAINING PREDOMINANT CHANCE OF RAIN ACROSS THE
FOUR STATE REGION. /16/
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
ISSUED AT 628 PM CDT THU SEP 3 2026
FOR THE 04/00Z TAFS, SOME REMAINING SCATTERED CONVECTION MOVING
WEST MAY IMPACT KMLU AND KELD IN THE COMING HOURS, BUT IS EXPECTED
TO DIMINISH AFTER SUNSET. CONDITIONS SHOULD REMAIN MOSTLY DRY FOR
THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT AND INTO THE MORNING. GUIDANCE HINTS AT
NEW STORMS ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN AIRSPACE TOMORROW AFTERNOON, BUT
CONFIDENCE IS NOT YET HIGH ENOUGH TO PREVAIL IMPACTS. CIGS LOOK TO
DROP TO MVFR LEVELS BY DAYBREAK, RECOVERING GRADUALLY THROUGH THE
MORNING, WITH PATCHY BR/FG DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE AT SHELTERED
TERMINALS. WINDS WILL BECOME MOSTLY CALM OVERNIGHT BEFORE ASSUMING
AND EASTERLY TO SOUTHEASTERLY ORIENTATION ONTO THE DAY TOMORROW
AT MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SPEEDS OF 5 TO 10 KTS.
