.SHORT TERM.../TODAY /...
ISSUED AT 316 AM CDT SUN JUN 16 2013

THE WEATHER WILL BE MUCH QUIETER TODAY AS A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
AREA BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTHWEST. A LARGE STRATUS BANK HAS
DEVELOPED OVERNIGHT AND WILL AFFECT MUCH OF THE AREA EARLY THIS
MORNING...AS WELL AS SOME PATCHY FOG IN THE NORTH...BUT THIS SHOULD
ALL BURN OFF BY AROUND 13-15Z. THEREAFTER EXPECT MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES
WITH SOME HIGH CLOUDS AND VERY LITTLE CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION.
DESPITE LIGHT WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE HIGH...PEAK SUMMER
INSOLATION SHOULD STILL BRING TEMPERATURES UP INTO THE LOW TO MID
80S ACROSS THE AREA.

.LONG TERM.../TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
ISSUED AT 316 AM CDT SUN JUN 16 2013

THE NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM HAS SHIFTED SOUTH A BIT OVER THE PAST 24
HOURS AND WILL SHAVE BACK ON POPS FOR MONDAY BASED ON THAT. AFTER
THE SYSTEM MOVES TO THE EAST MONDAY NIGHT THERE WILL BE A BREAK
FROM THE WET PATTERN FOR A FEW DAYS. THOUGH THERE ARE SOME LOW
POPS AROUND AS ONE COULD VIRTUALLY ALWAYS SAY THIS TIME OF THE
YEAR...IT SHOULD REMAIN DRY UNTIL ABOUT THU. FROM THU ON THERE
WILL BE CHANCES FOR THUNDER WITH THE BEST CHANCE DURING THE
CLIMATOLOGICALLY FAVORED NIGHTTIME HOURS. A BROAD UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE WILL BECOME ESTABLISHED OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. WITH THE UPPER
JET REMAINING CLOSE ENOUGH...IT WOULD APPEAR IA WILL BE PRIMED FOR
PERIODIC "RING OF FIRE" TYPE CONVECTION FROM THU THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
