539 FXUS64 KJAN 070522 AAC AFDJAN Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Jackson MS 1222 AM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025 ...New AVIATION... .MESOSCALE UPDATE... Issued at 849 PM CDT Sat Sep 6 2025 The showers have all moved east of the area this evening, leaving mostly clear skies across the area. Expect these conditions to continue tonight, with lows ranging from the mid 50s in the north to the low 60s in the south./15/ && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1250 PM CDT Sat Sep 6 2025 Tonight through Friday... This pattern largely continues until midweek when upper ridging begins to press eastward toward our area. Height rises will coincide with moderation/warming in temperatures and humidity. Highs rise from the mid 80s F early week to lower 90s F by late week with dewpoints in the 50s F rebounding into the mid/upper 60s F. This pattern will represent a return to late-summer climate norms and some low, isolated chance for a stray shower or two in the far southern portions of the area. Otherwise, the longer term pattern is one of little rain chance and warmer conditions. /86/ && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1218 AM CDT Sun Sep 7 2025 A band of low stratus will sink south through the area during the overnight hours. This will result in a period of MVFR/IFR ceilings at most area TAF sites through early Sunday morning. As soon as this band clears a site, VFR flight categories will resume and persist through the remainder of this 06Z TAF forecast period. Winds will be from the north around 5 knots overnight, but will increase to around 10 mph by late morning, gusting to between 15-20 knots at times throughout the afternoon hours. /19/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
