.NEAR TERM...
(Now through Sunday)
Issued at 214 PM CDT Sat May 11 2024

Slight ridging aloft is expected tonight through Sunday, as
surface high pressure also generally persists over the region. A
weak front will drop south across the forecast area late tonight
into early Sunday, reinforcing the slightly cooler and much drier
airmass that is currently in place (at least through Sunday
morning). We will likely be seeing an increase in mid and high
levels clouds in the near term period, however. The initial front
that moved through on Friday that is now stationary well to our
south out over the Gulf of Mexico will slowly begin to lift back
north as a warm front by late Sunday. This could bring some late
afternoon showers to the southern (mainly coastal) sections of our
forecast area by late Sunday afternoon, but rain chances will be
very low (less than 20 percent). Temperatures will be around or
just below normal for this time of the year. Lows tonight should
range from the upper 50s up along the Highway 84 corridor to the
low or mid 60s south toward and along the coast. Highs on Sunday
will generally be in the lower 80s across the entire area. Along
with the slightly lower temperatures we will also be looking at
dewpoints in the 50s through the near term, so humidity levels
will feel somewhat tolerable for this time of the year, both
tonight and Sunday. DS/12
