(Today)
Issued at 259 AM CDT Thu Jul 3 2025

High pressure overhead will result in another warm, but dry day
across the Tennessee Valley. Mostly sunny skies allows afternoon
temperatures to rise into the upper 80s to lower 90s. Despite
warm temperatures, it will be a rather comfortable day for early
July as dewpoints stay in the low to mid 60s. With the lower
dewpoint, heat index values stay close to the sfc temperatures and
heat risk low.

A broad subtropical ridge will remain in place Friday (4th of
July) and Saturday, promoting mostly sunny, warm, and dry
conditions for the the upcoming holiday weekend. Ample sunshine
and winds veering back to the south should allow for highs to
creep back up into the low to mid 90s both days. With dewpoints
also creeping back into the lower 70s, heat may begin to become a
little more a concern -- with peak heat index values around 100
degrees being common both days. Those with outdoor plans for
holiday festivities should use caution sense and follow good heat
safety practices.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 956 PM CDT Wed Jul 2 2025

The ridge will shift ever so slightly to the east early next
week, but remain the dominant weather feature across the region
through at least Monday. Very low (10-20%) chance for a few
diurnally driven showers and storms were introduced Sunday and
Monday, but most locations will remain hot/dry, with highs
remaining in the low to mid 90s. A weak frontal boundary may begin
to approach the area Tuesday into Wednesday, with PoPs increasing
to 30-40% mainly focused during the afternoon and evening hours.
Other than some additional cloud cover, expect plenty of sunshine
and the heat to persist, with highs again remaining in the low to
mid 90s.
