.DISCUSSION...
(Tonight through next Thursday)
Issued at 1130 PM CDT Thu Aug 14 2025

The longwave trough responsible for our consecutive afternoon shower
and thunderstorm coverage is nearly parallel along the Mississippi
River at this hour. This slow moving trough will continue its
eastward progression on Friday. As the trough gets further away from
the area, coverage of showers and storms will decrease. Coverage
should be generally confined to north Mississippi, but a few storms
could sneak into West Tennessee. Lack of confidence in coverage does
bring up the question of afternoon max heat index values. Another
Heat Advisory will be in effect Friday from 11AM-7PM for the same
geographical region as the previous two days along with the some
addition to northern and eastern extent.

As the trough finally clears the area, high pressure will begin to
build and looks to dominate the rest of the forecast period. A
diurnally driven thunderstorm cannot be ruled out, but generally a
dry, hot and humid forecast is anticipated. Current model output
favors the ridge amplifying around 590 dam, allowing temperatures to
soar into the mid to upper 90s with heat indices in the triple
digits. Some portions of the Mid-South will need a heat advisory as
heat indices climb above 105, but this will need evaluated daily.
