513 FXUS64 KHUN 070205 AFDHUN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Huntsville AL 905 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 ...New NEAR TERM... .NEAR TERM... (Rest of tonight) Issued at 905 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 Lingering cloudiness from earlier today has given way to mostly clear skies this Thu evening, as a weak cold front draped west to east drops into mid TN. This front will continue to move thru the central TN Valley overnight, allowing lows into early Fri to drop mainly into the lower/mid 60s. Some light fog is possible into the early morning hrs as well, although no sig impacts are expected with any potential fog. && .SHORT TERM... (Friday through Saturday night) Issued at 129 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 High pressure will settle into the TN valley late Friday into Friday night. High temperatures will reach the lower 80s for most areas, with noticeably lower humidity. The drier and cooler air will result in Saturday morning lows in the upper 50s to around 60. 5h flow will become west-northwest from the central Plains into the OH valley on Saturday, which brings a fast moving shortwave and MCS through the lower MO valley into the OH valley Saturday into Saturday night. This is followed by additional MCS development in KS and southern MO which may spill into TN and perhaps far north AL by early Sunday morning. For now, have kept low chances after midnight Sunday morning. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday through Wednesday) Issued at 359 AM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 The afore-mentioned cold front will probably move southward through the TN Valley, and perhaps even farther into the Southeast and Gulf Coastal Plain region early next week. This solution is supported generally by the latest 00Z operational guidance suite. However, some of the global ensemble suite is not supportive of this solution and tend to indicate the front may have slower movement through the region, perhaps stalling in the vicinity of the TN Valley. So, slight chance POPs were retained for the period from Monday through Wed next week to account for this uncertainty. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 548 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 VFR conditions are forecast to continue at KMSL and KHSV. A low chance of fog exists overnight, however, confidence in this affecting the terminals is not high enough to include this in the official TAF package at this time. && .HUN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
