.DISCUSSION...
Patchy fog is expected again tonight, especially across West
Tennessee where recent rainfall has increased soil moisture.
Near-
record temperatures and dangerous heat indices are forecast
through midweek, with only a slight cooling trend expected during
the latter half of the work week. There is a slight chance for
thunderstorms Monday afternoon, mainly over east-central Arkansas
and north Mississippi, but generally dry weather is forecast
Tuesday through the end of the week. Twenty-foot winds are
expected to be light, and afternoon 10-hour fuels are expected to
remain above 10% through the period, with afternoon relative
humidity generally in the 30-40% range most of the week.
