.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 328 AM CDT Sat Jul 13 2024
Upper level troughing remains in place early this morning with
WV imagery showing a positively tilted trough axis from the
middle Mississippi Valley northeast into the Great Lakes. WV
imagery also reveals a disturbance directly overhead the Quad
State this morning with additional waves embedded upstream.
Conditions are mostly quiet this morning with temperatures in
the upper 60's to lower 70's. There are a few isolated showers
around and this may continue for the next couple of hours given
the upper level disturbance across the region.
By the afternoon hours, models have the upper disturbance
exiting the area, largely limiting ascent. With that said, there
may still be some weak upper level divergence to work with so a
few isolated showers are still possible across portions of the
area. Temperatures will be warmer today with highs in the lower
90's. Dewpoints in the lower 70's will allow heat indices to
rise into the upper 90's to near 100 degrees.
Upper troughing moves well east of the region on Sunday with
ridging extending across much of the central CONUS. Dry weather
is expected Sunday through much of Tuesday beneath ridging
aloft. The main story will be the warm temperatures as highs
rise into the mid 90's. Continued southerly flow will bring
higher dewpoints into the region increasing heat indices to near
or exceeding 105 degrees. By Tuesday night into Wednesday the
upper levels amplify as a strong trough moves across the Great
Lakes sending a cold front through the region. This will bring
increasing chances of showers and storms to the area Wednesday
and Thursday.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 1140 PM CDT Fri Jul 12 2024
Fog formation will be a primary flight concern overnight
tonight. A passing 5000-6000 ft swirl of clouds may delay the
onset but conditions appear favorable for at least patchy fog
with IFR visibilities possible and locally dense fog can't be
ruled out. Any fog should mix out fairly quickly after sunrise
with light southwest winds developing by mid to late morning.
