Updated at 622 PM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 - Seasonal temperatures through the weekend with cooling next week. - A generally dry pattern will last through the weekend. - Low to medium rain chances from Labor Day into Thursday, then dry conditions return. && .SHORT TERM... (Rest of today through Sunday) Issued at 1048 AM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 Our pleasant weather continues through Sunday as surface high pressure remains overhead. With sunny skies this afternoon, high temperatures are forecasted to reach around 90 degrees for most of the CWA, west of the Plateau. Our folks along the Plateau can expect slightly cooler highs today, generally in the low to mid 80s. Tonight, clear skies will promote efficient cooling, allowing for lows to drop into the 50s once again. As we go into Sunday, just copy and paste today`s forecast to Sunday as our high pressure hangs on for one more day. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday Night through next Saturday) Issued at 1048 AM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 Not much change in thinking for next weeks forecast. Long wave troughing looks to set up over the eastern half of the US Monday through Thursday. There will be a few shortwaves that develop along the trough before another trough digs south on Thursday. This pattern will bring low to medium chances for showers each afternoon and evening. With increased cloud cover, instability will be limited keeping the thunderstorm threat low. That said, a few storms can`t be ruled out after peak heating in the afternoons. A more organized line of storms along a cold front drop south towards Middle TN on Thursday. As of right now, this line looks to weaken before making into TN, offering some scattered showers. Rain totals Monday through Thursday will generally range from 0.40-1.40". By Friday, a troughing pattern sets back up heading into the weekend. This brings back our low humidity with high temperatures in the 70s to low 80s. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 622 PM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 VFR conditions through the period at all TAF sites. Ceilings expected to become BKN tomorrow morning into the afternoon hours, but winds should remain from the north around 5 - 10 knots. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
