.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 230 PM CDT Wed Jul 23 2025
The main weather story continues to be the heat and humidity
this week. Upper level ridging remains anchored across the
Tennessee Valley today. Radar imagery shows scattered showers
and storms aligned from MVN south toward the TN/KY state line.
Temperatures have warmed into the low to mid 90s as forecast
with heat index values in the 105-110+ range. Thunderstorm
activity will continue this afternoon before dissipating this
evening.
The heat and humidity remain in the forecast through the end of
the week associated with large scale ridging across the region.
The only relief may come from isolated showers or storms but
coverage is expected to be low. Heat headlines remain unchanged
with expiration Thursday evening for now. Slightly higher rain
chances Friday-Saturday may offer slight improvements to the
heat but overall it will remain hot and humid. Hot and humid
conditions remain into next week with an overall expansion of
deep layer region centered across the region.
