.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 136 PM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025

Tonight through next Tuesday: For the most part, strong surface
high pressure anchored over the eastern CONUS will be in control
of our weather through the remainder of the work week and into the
weekend. One minor exception will be a weak surface trough over
the lower MS Valley region Wed/Thu. This could help to support
isolated shower activity during peak heating, but any rainfall
will be spotty and light. Otherwise, look for slightly drier and
cooler air to advect into the forecast area as we finish up the
week. Given the long duration stretch of below normal rainfall
observed, we will be monitoring for any increased fire weather
threats in this dry weather pattern. It is worth noting that we
should begin to see an increase in rain chances going from this
weekend through early next week as pressures begin to fall and
moisture increases near the gulf coast. There are still no signs
of significant rainfall potential. /EC/
