.SHORT TERM...
(Today)
Issued at 345 AM CDT Wed Sep 25 2024

Areas of dense fog have developed early this morning, mainly in
places that saw rain last evening and where skies cleared
relatively early. The fog will dissipate around mid morning, with
abundant sunshine expected for the rest of the day. Afternoon high
temperatures will generally range from the upper 70s to lower 80s.

.LONG TERM...
(Tonight through Tuesday)
Issued at 345 AM CDT Wed Sep 25 2024

A cutoff upper low to our east will interact with the remnants of
soon to be Hurricane Helene over the coming days, with the latest
model data indicating this will occur a bit farther to the east
than previously expected. As a result, most rainfall will remain
east of our forecast area later Thursday night and Friday, with
any rain in our area being confined mainly to western Arkansas.
This system will shift slowly east over the weekend taking any
rain chances with it and leaving pleasant weather over our area. A
weak cold front looks to move through early next week with little
fanfare except to knock temperatures down slightly. Overall,
temperatures over the next week will remain within a few degrees
of the seasonal averages.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 607 AM CDT Wed Sep 25 2024

Dense fog will persist for terminals in eastern OK and northwest
AR through 14Z before diminishing completely by 15-16Z. During
this time visibility of 1/4 mile or less will be common with very
low ceilings. KBVO should remain clear or mostly clear. KFSM will
most likely continue to see low ceilings near 1 kft but little or
no fog.

During the late morning north wind at 5-10 kts with a few higher
gusts will develop. Late tonight the wind will shift to northeast
and become lighter but skies will remain clear.
