The primary concern for this forecast will be with the potential
for marginally severe storms from late Tue night through
Wednesday. Otherwise, significant weather hazard impacts are not
anticipated.
For today through this evening, modest strengthening of the
southeast CONUS ridge will tend to deflect the more favorable
convective environment currently supporting considerable shower
and thunderstorm coverage well to our north, and this will keep the
forecast area mostly free of convective rainfall. This will also
support another day of anomalously hot temperatures with highs
reaching the mid 90s (near 10 deg F above normal).
For late tonight through Wednesday, as a shortwave trough digs
southward through the MS Valley region, increased deep layer flow
and cyclonic flow will support the development of organized storms
to our northwest ahead of an approaching cold front. These storms
will likely impact northwest portions of the area just prior to
daybreak, and they may be accompanied by a few strong to
marginally severe wind gusts. As has been discussed, the initial
round of storms would diminish during the morning and then
potentially redevelop and intensify over the southeast half of the
area during the afternoon. Overall, the combination of weak height
falls, moderate levels of instability, and at least marginal levels
of deep layer wind shear, should support a marginal risk of severe
weather that persists into the early evening. In terms of rainfall,
locally heavy downpours could create some minor ponding issues, but
the recent dry weather should limit any flash flood concerns.
Late week through the weekend: Going into Thursday, the threat
for severe weather will end, but persistent cyclonic flow
associated with trough passage will support additional rainfall
over eastern and southeast portions of the area. The trough will
shift east and be followed by dry and milder air as we go into
Friday and weekend, but the upper level pattern becomes less
predictable early next week as the trough may cutoff and meander
per latest global model guidance. In any case, it appears
temperatures will be near typical values for the end of September.

VFR across most sites. Some low lying fog and low ceilings have
developed at KPIB and KHBG which has dropped those sites down to
MVF/IFR conditions. An hour or two after sunrise VFR conditions will
prevail for the rest of the period for all sites. There will be
lingering upper level cloud coverage at and above 20,000ft, with
light mostly variable winds. &&
