.DISCUSSION...

Rest of Today through next Thursday...Another rinse and repeat
day as a potent upper-lvl ridge continues to provide hot and humid
weather to the region. Heat indices aren`t expected to be greater
than 105 degrees so a heat advisory isn`t needed today. Diurnal
showers/t-storms are expected into the evening hours. Some
organized convection will be possible across southeast/eastern MS.
As a result, a "Marginal" (1 out of 5) risk for severe storms
will be possible across southeast and eastern MS with damaging
winds being the primary hazard of concern.

Over the weekend, the ridge is expected to start flatten over the
southeast CONUS and a longwave trough will settle across the
northern CONUS. Afternoon showers/t-storm chances will continue
through the extended period as a frontal boundary is expected to
stall north of the area and the airmass remains unstable. In
addition to the stalled boundary, northwest flow may usher in some
shortwave disturbances throughout the week. Widespread rain chances
are expected (40-75% PoPs with best PoP chances east of I-55).
Temperatures aren`t expected to be as oppressive as dewpoint ranges
in the lower 70s and highs reaching the lower 90s. Depending on
cloud cover/rainfall received, heat indices could reach 105 degrees
or greater and may warrant a heat advisory but that decision will be
on a day by day bases. /SW/

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1231 PM CDT Fri Jun 27 2025

Flight categories will predominately remain at VFR status through
the forecast period. The potential for scattered convection is
again present across the area this afternoon and early evening,
along with the potential for low stratus developing at a few area
TAF sites toward day break Saturday morning. If either of these
are observed on station, flight categories could be reduced to
MVFR/IFR status for a short duration. An isolated severe storm is
also possible this afternoon, particularly across East Central and
Southeast Mississippi. Damaging wind gusts will be the primary
concern with the most intense storms, with frequent lightning and
heavy downpours likely. Winds this afternoon will generally be
from the south around 5 knots. These will subside to light to calm
tonight, and will become southwesterly around 5 knots by late
morning on Saturday. /19/
