.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday Night)
Issued at 554 AM CDT Wed Oct 15 2025

Wednesday brings another beautiful fall day with dry weather and
temperatures warming into the upper 70s to low 80s. Winds will
remain out of the NE between 5-10 mph. Starting to sound like a
broken record here, but Thursday will be much of the same. A mid
level low strengthens over the N Rockies and moves into the N
Great Plains. This causes the ridge over the MS River Valley to
become more amplified and shifts further east. Overall, not much
change in weather for us because of these interactions, but it is
the start of a pattern change as the mid-levels become more
dynamic heading into the end of the week and weekend.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through next Wednesday)
Issued at 554 AM CDT Wed Oct 15 2025

By Friday our upper ridge axis will be directly overhead. This
will offer another day of pleasant weather, then an upper level
low will push a cold front south into the Plains and Middle TN
through the weekend. This front will bring showers and
thunderstorms back into the forecast for Saturday evening through
Sunday morning. Latest models still support a robust mid-level
jet, causing bulk shear values of greater than 40 kts. Dewpoints
still look to be in the 50s and 60s ahead of the front. Timing
still is a little uncertain, but in general, the front will push
east through Middle TN Saturday night into Sunday morning. As far
as a severe weather threat goes, thinking the threat is overall
low at this time as storms look to march through in a low CAPE
environment. That said, there will be plenty of shear and lapse
rates could be marginal early in the evening so a few strong
storms will be possible, mainly west of I-65 given current model
guidance. The main severe threat still looks most favorable
farther west, were storms will be firing off during the late
afternoon.

The cold front pushes through on Sunday and highs will fall back
into the 70s. Quiet and dry weather returns next week as an upper
level ridge slowly builds back over the region. We will likely see
one of our coolest nights of the season so far, with widespread
low 40s overnight. Dry and seasonal temperatures remain through
mid next week.
