.DISCUSSION...
(Tonight through next Sunday)
Issued at 1036 PM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025
Cool and dry conditions will persist on Monday as surface high
pressure continues to build into the Mid-South. Afternoon highs
will be a few degrees below normal, in the upper 70s to lower 80s.
Unfortunately, pleasant temperatures will not stick around for
long as an Omega block forms by midweek. The center of a 593 dam
ridge will shift east on Wednesday, allowing WAA into the Mid-
South. Temperatures will warm each day with highs on Friday in the
mid 90s. While temperatures will be hot, this heat wave will not
be oppressive. Daily lows in the 60s and dewpoints in the upper
50s will keep heat indices well below heat headline threshold.
As for precipitation, the upcoming work week will be dry. Current
areas of D1 moderate drought may worsen to D2 severe drought by
the end of the week.

Issued at 628 AM CDT Mon Sep 8 2025
Dry northeasterly flow near the surface will bring continued VFR.
MEM could see a few gusts this afternoon. Otherwise, few aviation
weather impacts are anticipated across the Midsouth for the next 30
hours.
12Z TUP TAF continues the AMD NOT SKED for multiple missing
weather elements in the METAR. This appears related to a local
comms outage. Hopefully, we will have additional information
concerning this outage later today.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1036 PM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025
Increased fire danger will exist this week as prolonged dry
conditions lower fuel moisture. In addition, MinRH values will
remain in the 30 to 40 percent range. Luckily, light 20ft winds
should hamper wildfire spread, but any vegetation that does ignite will
have plenty of dry fuels to work with.
