...New AVIATION...

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 137 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

Data from local radars indicate widely scattered convection again
developing over the forecast area. Greatest coverage is over
eastern sections of the forecast area, in an area of the greatest
instability. This activity will end shortly after sunset.

A cold front will approach northwest sections of the forecast area
late tonight and on Saturday. Convection forced by this boundary
may be able to reach northern sections late tonight and on
Saturday. Additional, diurnally enhanced development is expected
area wide on both Saturday and Sunday, as the atmospheric column
becomes more conducive to support convective development.
