.DISCUSSION...
(This afternoon through next Monday)
Issued at 1149 AM CDT Tue Sep 16 2025
The latest HREF guidance indicates potential for isolated shower
and thunderstorm development this afternoon, mainly along the TN
River south towards the MS/AL state line. Any storm that does form
will exist in an environment not conducive for upscale growth.
Therefore, severe weather chances are limited. Instead, expect a
few spotty downpours.
An upper level blocking pattern will continue to breakdown through
Thursday as a low pressure system over the Carolinas retrogrades
towards the Mid-South. By Friday, a secondary low located over the
northern Plains will eject a shortwave towards Missouri. This
system will bring increased rain chances to the Mid-South, though
widespread rainfall is not anticipated. Elevated precipitation
chances will exist through Saturday with storm total amounts
topping out at half an inch.
The extended forecast calls for a large "bowling ball" trough
developing over central CONUS by next Tuesday. Both the GFS and
ECMWF vary in exact placement of this system, meaning next week`s
weather remains hard to pinpoint. Stay tuned.

(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1231 PM CDT Tue Sep 16 2025
Ridging aloft will coincide with weak surface winds and VFR
through the next 30 hours.
Isolated SHRA/TSRA expected again today, mainly to the east of
MEM. With limited organization and coverage potential, NBM hourly
thunder probabilities remain at or below below 5 percent at
Midsouth TAF sites. Similar scenario expected for Wednesday, with
TSRA chances insufficient to warrant a PROB30 mention at this
time.
