.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Saturday)
Issued at 1229 AM CDT FRI JUL 11 2025
A stalled mid to upper-level trough axis will continue to provide
a focus for numerous showers and storms this afternoon and
evening. Westerly mid-level flow of 15 to 20 knots will promote
enough forward speed with thunderstorm clusters, to limit the
potential for localized flooding.
A deep-layer ridge will start to build across the region on
Saturday, marking the beginning of a trend of increasing temps and
decreasing rain chances.
87/Grantham

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through Thursday)
Issued at 1229 AM CDT FRI JUL 11 2025
A deep-layer ridge is expected to persist over the Deep South
through at least Tuesday which will support the idea of convection
remaining scattered to isolated. Rain chances could increase for
Wednesday and Thursday if the ridge breaks down in response to a
westward moving disturbance near the east coast Florida.
87/Grantham

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1229 AM CDT FRI JUL 11 2025
Prevailing VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period,
though interruptions appear possible due to pop-up afternoon
thunderstorms.

.FIRE WEATHER...
A moist summertime air mass will be in place through the
