The primary weather concern for this week will be the threat for
marginally severe storms impacting northwest portions of the
forecast area Wednesday. Otherwise, significant weather impacts
are generally not expected.
In the near term, low level ridging over the southeast CONUS will
continue to keep things hotter than normal as we finish up the
weekend and go into early next week. Given hot and unstable
conditions and a subtle upper level shortwave trough crossing the
region, scattered showers and a few storms will develop again
later this afternoon, and a stray storm or two may briefly become
strong to severe.
The forecast gets more interesting during the middle of the week.
Global models continue to indicate that a shortwave trough will
amplify and dig southward in the Mississippi Valley region. As
this happens and deep layer flow increases, a developing surface
wave and strengthening warm sector will lower pressures over the
forecast area Wednesday. This could result in a threat for strong
to marginally severe multicell clusters and perhaps a few
supercells if the cold frontal timing and storm initiation
coincide with peak heating. SPC has included northwest portions of
the forecast area in a marginal severe risk for Tue-Tue night,
and can imagine this threat will be extended into Wednesday and
expanded southeast with future outlooks assuming there are no
significant changes in the guidance. We will be including a
similar area in our hazard graphics for local messaging.
Going into late week, the trough should slowly shift east, which
could prolong the potential for beneficial rainfall over eastern
portions of the area as cyclonic flow lingers. By the weekend,
conditions look dry milder on the backside of the trough with
temperatures near typical values for late September. /EC/
