.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 134 PM CDT Tue Oct 8 2024

Latest satellite and surface observational data indicate SKC
conditions across the entire state. Temperatures were generally
near climatological values.

Short term forecast philosophy remains constant during this
period.

High pressure extending from the Ohio valley through the mid
south will promote dry conditions through the period. Will
experience a slow warming trend during this period, along with a
diurnal temperature trend common for October.

.LONG TERM...
(Thursday Night through next Tuesday)
Issued at 134 PM CDT Tue Oct 8 2024

A high pressure system centered over the Great Lakes region will
extend southward across the Southern MS Valley region and SE states
late Thursday. The air mass will shift southward, across AR and the
rest of the southeastern U.S. through the weekend. During this time,
mostly clear and dry conditions are expected and temperatures will
gradually warm. Daily high temperatures will be in the lower to
upper 80s Friday. By Sunday afternoon, high temperatures are
forecast to top out in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Low temperatures
through the latter part of the week will be in the 50s to lower 60s.

By the weekend, a frontal boundary will be draped across much of the
U.S., from the Northeast states, the Midwest, to the Southwest
region. Another high pressure system will begin to move from Canada
southward across the central U.S. early next week, expanding across
much of the central and eastern states towards the middle of next
week. As this high pressure air mass shifts southward, the front
will push southward and cooler and drier air will begin to return to
the forecast area for the early part of next week. High temperatures
Monday and Tuesday will be in the 70s to lower 80s. Low temperatures
will drop into the 40s to lower 50s across the state.
