.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 208 PM CDT Sun Oct 5 2025
Today through Saturday: Weak low pressure is positioning itself
over the Lower Mississippi River Valley this afternoon. With it,
increasing moisture across the region will yield some increasing
rain chances across mainly southeast portions of the forecast area
as we go through the next several hours, but a good bit of
moistening is required and this is delaying the onset of any
measurable rainfall.
Although this mid/upper level low pressure system erodes heading
into the new work week, moisture associated with it will linger
across the forecast area through mid-week.  This will continue to
result in rain chances remaining in the forecast, especially during
the heat of the afternoon, through at least Wednesday. This is when
a fast moving cold front is progged to sink south into and through
the region.
In this front`s wake Thursday through Saturday, high pressure at the
surface will quickly build southeast into the Lower Mississippi
River Valley, with high pressure aloft building southwest along the
north central gulf coast.  Not much of an airmass change is
currently expected to accompany this frontal passage, as only some
slightly drier air will advect into the region. Still, somewhat less
humid conditions will exist as temperatures hover at to just above
the norm for this time of year late in the week. /19/EC/

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1241 PM CDT Sun Oct 5 2025
As of 1741Z, HBG is currently under MVFR ceilings due to an
approaching stratus deck from the southeast. All other TAF sites
are currently reporting VFR conditions. VFR conditions will
continue across multiple TAF sites through 19Z. By 20Z light rain
showers and low stratus will begin to overspread the area later
this afternoon/evening and will persist through the overnight
period. Multiple southern TAF sites (HBG, PIB, and HEZ) will see
IFR/possible LIFR ceilings heading into the overnight period due
to a very low stratus cloud deck (
