.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 208 PM EDT Fri Sep 26 2025
Prolonged stretch of pleasant weather the story through next week as
a dry and stable air mass holds firm with ridging the dominant
feature locally in an increasingly blocky flow regime. Into this
weekend, the area will be in between upper troughing settling into
the southeast US and a round of height falls progressing east
through Ontario and Quebec. This shortwave jet energy will send a
dry frontal passage south into Michigan, possibly washing out in our
far north by early Sunday with no sensible wx impacts. A pseudo
omega block then emerges with anomalous ridging developing from
central Canada south into the Great Lakes, which likely holds a
tropical system/upper trough merger over the southeast US. The
net result is above normal temps and dry conditions through the
forecast.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 1217 PM EDT Fri Sep 26 2025
Ridging will be in control with light winds, mainly clear skies
and VFR conditions. A much lesser threat for fog/br development
toward daybreak Saturday at the terminals tomorrow given the
greater mixout of drier air today. However, temps will fall to
near crossover values which may allow for some patchy ground fog
to develop. Will hold off on including a br mention in the TAF
at this time given the very low point chances for VIS
restrictions.
