.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 143 PM CDT Mon Sep 29 2025

Quiet weather will continue this week and weekend with a dry
forecast and temperatures above normal for the most part. Upper
level ridging will be the main player for the regions weather as
it settles across the Ohio Valley this week. Surface ridging
will continue associated with a surface high well to the
northeast. A dry forecast will continue this week. Winds will
remain from the northeast. High temperatures are expected to
continue to run above normal this week with highs in the mid to
upper 80s, cooling a bit toward the end of the week. As previous
discussions have mentioned, no impacts from the tropical
activity is expected.

For the weekend, the ridge starts to break down a bit with a
subtle disturbance across the northern Gulf coast. Surface
ridging will dominate as high pressure extends across the Mid
Atlantic and northeast. No signs of any precipitation are seen
for the weekend period. High temperatures look to remain above
normal with highs in the low to mid 80s.

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 430 PM CDT Mon Sep 29 2025

Strong high pressure at the surface and aloft dominates the
flight weather this package. Other than the isolated spot fog
that offers temporary restrictions potential, it will be a dry
northeasterly fetch throughout the column reinforcing the
continued tranquil weather conditions; FEW-SCT (mainly diurnal)
bases in the 6-8K FT AGL range will again be possible.
