   increase across the area.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Wednesday)
Issued at 1207 AM CDT TUE SEP 30 2025
Today, the state will be between two systems, the high pressure over
the MS River Valley slowly moving eastward, and the lower pressure
off the east coast. There is plenty of moisture and upper level
support as a weak low moves between these features and across the
state for light to moderate isolated showers to develop and move
over the northeast and east. Have left mention of PoP at a minimum
for now due to uncertainty of CAMs. Activity could linger into
the early evening, before weakening through the night.
By Wednesday, the high will begin to influence the area more,
with the low moving to the east. Easterly low and mid level flow
will set up, with drier air advecting into the state by Wednesday
afternoon. Dry conditions and warm temperatures in the 80s will
be expected.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 1207 AM CDT TUE SEP 30 2025
High pressure and flow out of the east will continue through the
end of the work week and into the weekend. Dry weather and temps
in the 80s will remain each day. By Sunday, models are in decent
agreement that a surface low will develop and bring rain back to
the area. There is some uncertainty of where this low will move,
but with low and mid level flow transitioning to out of the
south by late saturday, there should be plenty of moisture for
scattered to widespread showers and isolated thunderstorms
returning the area sometime late Sunday and possibly into Monday.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 628 AM CDT TUE SEP 30 2025
MVFR ceilings prevailing at ASN, AUO, and MGM this morning. VFR
conditions are expected after 15 to 17z and through the afternoon
at all TAF sites. There is a low chance for convection in the
afternoon in the eastern half of the state. Though left mention
out of each TAF for now due to uncertainty in coverage and timing.

.FIRE WEATHER...
The area should remain mostly dry, with minRH values will fall
into the low to mid-40s by Wednesday. Given the sharp east shift
in the tropical trends, no real moisture return is expected until
next weekend, with only scattered rain chances the next seven days
or so. Because of this, drought conditions will remain ongoing,
with additional expansion possible given the lack of rain.
