.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Monday)
Issued at 146 PM EST Sun Dec 21 2025

Water vapor imagery early this afternoon reveals an upper trough
swinging across the eastern CONUS as ridging begins to build
across the Southern Plains. At this surface, a weak cold front is
making a southerly push down the state. A few light showers can
be seen on radar associated with this boundary. We will hang onto
low chance for showers through the afternoon hours to account for
this. Overall, rainfall amounts will be minimal. Otherwise for
today, look for highs in the upper 50s across our northern area to
the upper 60s to the south.

High pressure settles into the Carolinas tonight into Monday,
shifting our northerly winds to the east. This will provide another
shot of cooler and drier air to the region. We knock a few degrees
off our highs on Monday with temps topping out in the mid 50s to mid
60s.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday morning through next Saturday)
Issued at 146 PM EST Sun Dec 21 2025

A broad upper level ridge will be in place through much of the
long term. As a result, we will see a stretch of warmer and drier
weather. High temps on Christmas Eve and Christmas climb into the
low to mid 70s. Latest guidance hints at a low (~20%) chance for
highs to hit 80 on Christmas Day for our southern area.

Another front approaches the area on Friday as a shortwave slides
across the Ohio Valley. For now, we will carry a low chance of
showers across our northern tier of counties.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1229 PM EST Sun Dec 21 2025

Low level ceilings have been lingering, mainly at ATL, through the
morning hours. Therefore, have continued with a TEMPO group for MVFR
for the next couple of hours. A few showers can be seen on radar as
of writing. This activity will remain light and move south of all
terminals through the afternoon hours. VFR conditions prevail in
the wake of a passing through. Winds will be out of the north
around 5 knots through the overnight hours. Winds will increase
out of the east-southeast Monday morning with gusts around 20
knots likely by 14-15Z. Gusts look to drop off during the early
afternoon hours.

//ATL Confidence...18Z Update...
Low to medium confidence on the timing of the MVFR ceilings
lifting to VFR. High confidence on all other elements.
