.UPDATE...
Issued at 901 PM CDT Sat Jun 21 2025

Heat Advisory has expired for the night and will let the overnight
shift decide on new products for Sunday. There was an outflow
boundary showing up on radar this evening that could have
developed something, it is still slowly traversing through the
area so I have left some PoPs in the forecast for the next hour
before they drop out. Otherwise, things seem to be trending well
for tonight and no other things were needed to be updated. /33/

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Sunday Night)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Sat Jun 21 2025

A uniform layer of cumulus and warm temperatures have been the
story this afternoon across the Four State Region. There still
remains a slight chance that as the late afternoon seabreeze
boundary advances further north, stray showers and an isolated
thunderstorm or two may briefly emerge. If this were to
materialize, it would only survive through sunset before daytime
heating is cut off. That being said, another warm and muggy night
is expected with lows in the mid and upper 70`s.

For Sunday, the center of the upper ridge will be displaced more to
the northeast when compared to this afternoon. Surface winds will
become more south to southeast, with afternoon temperatures once
again climbing easily into the 90`s. Prevailing southerlies off
the gulf will continue to support elevated dew point temperatures,
thus helping heat indices climb above 100 deg F. Questions do
surround the influence of possible convection through the
afternoon, and how that impacts peak heat indices. 12z hi-res and
CAMs continue to suggest mid afternoon isolated showers and
storms, though PoPs only remain slight chance. It is possible that
another Heat Advisory will be needed tomorrow, but electing to
wait for another round of data to come in before issuance. Bottom
line, it will still be hot. The evening and mid crews will make
the call for the overnight package, similar to this morning.

.LONG TERM...
(Monday through next Friday)
Issued at 221 PM CDT Sat Jun 21 2025

Into the new work week, expect for a lot of the same song and dance
as the last few days with highs climbing into the mid and upper 90`s
and heat indices in the triple digits. The aforementioned ridge
looks to remain parked across the Mid-Atlantic states through
much of the long term period, resulting in the continuation of
onshore flow, with daily afternoon showers and thunderstorm
chances. With the upper ridge influence, the 6-10 day temperature
outlook from the Climate Prediction Center calls for around a
50-60 percent chance that temperatures are above average. This
ties in nicely to the extended 3-7 day forecast where afternoon
highs will be anywhere from 2-4 deg F above the norm.

Though the onshore pattern will support the chance for daily showers
and thunderstorms, QPF amounts through day 7 remain rather limited
as convective coverage will be spotty. Given that the bulk of the
rainfall opportunity depends on how far north the coastal seabreeze
advances, highest PoPs in the extended are confined to areas along
and south of I-20. That being said, 7 day QPF amounts are generally
less than half an inch. Towards the back end of the long term
period, global guidance advertises a slight retrograde of the
aforementioned ridge, potentially finding itself parked back over
the ArkLaTex by the end of this week, though slightly weaker.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1104 PM CDT Sat Jun 21 2025

VFR conditions currently prevailing across our airspace with just
some thin cirrus left over from convection earlier across S Miss
earlier in the day. Look for a return to at least some brief
IFR/MVFR ceilings across at least the LFK/TYR/GGG terminals just
prior to and post sunrise this morning with this cloud cover
thinning and scattering out by mid to late morning. With upper
ridging continuing to retreat across the Ohio Valley, we may see
diurnally driven widely scattered convection move into our eastern
airspace this afternoon into the early evening hours and for that
reason, have mentioned VCTS at the MLU terminal in the 22/20-23/02
timeframe. Otherwise, VFR conditions will prevail outside the
15-16z window this morning with the lower ceilings mentioned
above.
