.DISCUSSION...
(Tonight through next Tuesday)
Issued at 1119 PM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025
A pesky upper level ridge will meander over southeast CONUS for
the next several days, allowing afternoon highs to climb into the
upper 80s and lower 90s. Despite dewpoints increasing to the mid
60s today, dry air aloft will keep the Mid-South dry through the
end of the week.
By Friday, the aforementioned ridge will weaken as it broadens
over the eastern United States. Temperatures this upcoming weekend
will be a few degrees cooler in response, but a noticeable
cooldown is not anticipated. Instead, the greater thing to watch
this weekend is the potential for an upper level low to form near the
TX/LA coast. If this system does develop, a surge in moisture
will impact the Mid-South by Monday. Increased rain chances will
accompany the elevated moisture, but given the large amount of
uncertainty kept PoPs around 20 percent for the beginning of next
week.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1119 PM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025
Light 20ft winds and MinRH values above 40 percent will keep fire
weather concerns minimal through the end of the work week.
However, prolonged dry conditions will worsen fuel moisture by
this weekend. Expect fire danger to increase through early next
week.
