.SHORT TERM...
(Rest of today through Friday)
Issued at 1222 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025

If you were hoping for some exciting weather I have bad news for
you, our quiet and dry weather is going to continue through the
forecast period. A strong area of high pressure is set up to our
north over the Great Lakes and that will influence our weather
into the end of the week. There is a vort max currently over
Middle TN and that is pulling some slightly higher PWATs north
into our eastern and southern areas. This will just lead to some
low level clouds into Friday morning. Highs will be in the low to
mid 70s this afternoon which is right at seasonal norms. Not
going to see a lot of change as we head into the Friday. Highs
will tick up a few degrees as we start to see southerly flow. An
upper level trough moving into the Great Lakes will also bring
some mid to high level clouds in the afternoon and evening.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday Night through next Thursday)
Issued at 1222 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025

We will move into weak northwest flow aloft over the weekend as
the upper level trough slowly moves east out of the Great Lakes.
Our quiet and dry weather will remain in place. Highs will be a
bit warmer in the mid 70s to lower 80s. As we head into next week
an upper level ridge will build in from the west and amplify over
the central part of the country. This will keep our rain chances
at or near zero for the week. Highs will remain in the mid 70s to
lower 80s.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1225 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025

VFR conditions through the TAF period with winds becoming light
and variable overnight and remaining that way on Friday. Could see
some patchy fog tonight, but probabilities and locations affected
are uncertain right now, so I refrained from adding into this set
of TAFs.
