.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Friday Night)
Issued at 110 AM CDT THU JUN 26 2025

Ongoing band of showers and storms arching through the central
sections and pushing west. Meanwhile we are beginning to see some
expansion of showers and storms in the northeast as well, along
the outflow boundary. Activity in Georgia is also sliding
southwest and may slide back into the severe thunderstorm watch
area over the next few hours, so it will be hard to cancel the
southeast until 3 am. All of this activity clears out by 4 to 5am
and then patchy fog will be possible at sunrise. As we go into the
daylight hours we will see a good amount of subsidence from the
ongoing storms, so afternoon showers and storms will likely hold
off until later in the day and evening hours, much like today.
That will only allow more fuel to the fire for storm activity with
any storm being strong to marginally severe from generally 3pm to
midnight again.

So now to the other side of the forecast, the heat. We will
continue the heat advisory for the area through this afternoon. Do
not think conditions will be met with as much widespread locations as
it was on Wednesday, but we will still approach if not top out
around 105 to 106 by 1 to 3 pm, before the storms get brewing late
afternoon. Of course the cloud cover may persist a little longer
so it will be close. It will not be as hot on Friday, but still
quite warm, so plan accordingly.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday through next Wednesday)
Issued at 110 AM CDT THU JUN 26 2025

The extended pattern continues to look wet through the first
couple of days of July. Much of this will be diurnally driven, but
may start early each day more like the 2 to 3 pm time frame. The
good news there is that temperatures will not be as stifling as
right now, however the humidity will still be quite high. We
really will be back into the true summertime pattern with a good
chance of hit and miss showers and storms. There is actually quite
high agreement with the longer range models. There is a good
consensus that the wettest day will be Tuesday as a front tries to
work closer to the region before stalling out over the Southeast
on Wednesday. Hopefully this trend will continue as we get closer
to the end of next week.
