.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1146 PM CDT Sat Jul 19 2025

Upper ridging continues to settle in over the area with light
flow aloft. This ridging gradually migrates poleward allowing for
increasing northeasterly to easterly flow aloft to become
established by mid week. This in turn allows for a subtle
shortwave trough to transit from the southeast coast/Bahamas area
across the gulf coast states from east to west by mid to late
week. Likewise, weak surface troughing or an area of low pressure
may form off the southeast U.S. coastline by mid to late week
before tracking westward.

Given the aforementioned ridging building in, rain chances remain
quite low today. Only isolated coverage of showers and storms are
expected today, becoming isolated to scattered Monday and
Tuesday, particularly east of I-65. As ridging shifts
north/northwest a bit and the aforementioned trough/low enter the
picture, rain chances start to increase quickly to scattered to
locally numerous by mid to late week. Forecast temperatures warm
up substantially today through Wednesday, with afternoon highs
warming into the middle to upper 90`s each day, isolated spots
reaching 100 degrees. Hottest temperatures can be expected on
Monday and Tuesday. Northerly flow will be established across the
area early this week which should allow for decent afternoon
mixing of dewpoints into the lower to middle 70`s for most
locations. Despite this, they remain high enough to where heat
indices will rise into the 100 to 108 range today through
Wednesday, with hottest heat indices anticipated nearer the coast
Monday through Wednesday in the 105 to 110 range. The forecast
heat indices and associated heat risk values will likely require
heat advisories for at least the southern third of the area
Monday and at least the southern two thirds of the forecast area
Tuesday into Wednesday. A low risk of rip currents is expected
today before increasing to a Moderate risk by tonight for the
Florida panhandle counties. The risk decreases to low again for
all area beaches Tuesday into Wednesday before once again
increasing by Thursday to a Moderate risk. MM/25
