.SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Sunday) Issued at 1115 AM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
For the rest of today, a weak upper trough over the Southern Appalachians will bring a few showers and maybe a brief storm along the Cumberland Plateau. Otherwise, dry high pressure will make things nice but warmer than normal. Tonight will be another seasonably cool night with light winds and patchy fog.
For Sunday, dry high pressure will be the rule with sunny skies and warm temperatures area-wide. Highs will be around 5 degrees above normal for this time of year.

.LONG TERM... (Sunday Night through next Saturday) Issued at 1115 AM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
For the work week ahead, we will start with tropical low pressure along the Southeast Coast. This is currently TD 9, likely to become Hurricane Imelda. Dry high pressure will be anchored north and west of the tropical system. This pattern will keep our area mostly dry next week with temperatures remaining several degrees above normal. The latest NHC forecast shows the tropical system staying off the coast, but models have varied showing some of the moisture being pulled inland with an upper trough, possibly bringing some showers to the eastern fringe of our area. Confidence is low on the forecast of the tropical moisture. Our entire area could stay completely dry next week, or shower chances could go up, particularly for the Plateau. Again, very low confidence that we would see showers. Late week, models show a backdoor push of slightly cooler and drier air with a trend toward normal temperatures for next weekend.

.AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1208 PM CDT Sat Sep 27 2025
Light northerly winds will dissipate some overnight, then veer to the northeast after sunrise tomorrow. Any diurnal cu will also dissipate after sunset, with clearer skies anticipated tomorrow. For the light showers around CSV, minimal impacts are expected and they should also dissipate after sunset, but will have to monitor for light fog development there tonight and at SRB given the slightly higher surface moisture and lighter wind profiles.
