...New AVIATION...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1041 AM CDT Thu Sep 26 2024

Once again today`s high temperature is the primary feature
requiring modifications to the forecast this morning. As of a
quarter until the 16Z hour, temperatures have climbed into the
upper 70s and lower 80s at many area sites. Based on this warming
trend, and not expecting much in the way of cloud cover this
afternoon except for some scattered Cu across our easternmost
zones, while dew points remain comfortably low, have elected to
bump highs up 1-2 degrees, reaching the middle 80s for most of the
ArkLaTex and lower 80s north and east. Otherwise, ingested the
latest several hours worth of temperature and dew point
observations and interpolated through to 00Z.

(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1247 PM CDT Thu Sep 26 2024

VFR conditions will continue through the 26/18Z TAF period. A
scattered cu field has developed across the region early this
afternoon, but should diminish by/shortly after 00Z. SKC is
expected overnight, although areas of cirrus and some AC cigs
should begin to spread SSE into portions of SW AR by the end of
the TAF period on the backside of an upper low
that will drift into the mid and Lower MS Valley. NNE winds
8-12kts, with some occasional higher gusts to 20kts over NE LA,
will become light N or Lt/Vrb after 00Z. /15/
