.UPDATE...AVIATION DISCUSSION.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 210 AM CDT TUE JUN 28 2011/

A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE MIDSOUTH TODAY AND BRING THE BEST
CHANCE FOR RAIN FOR THE UPCOMING WEEK. CURRENTLY...A LINE OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS STRETCHES FROM MIDDLE KENTUCKY INTO EXTREME
SOUTHEAST MISSOURI. SOME ADDITIONAL SHOWERS HAVE POPPED UP OVER
PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST TENNESSEE. MODELS INDICATE THAT ADDITIONAL
ACTIVITY WILL BLOSSOM FURTHER WEST ALONG THE FRONT BY 12Z. THUS
NORTHEAST ARKANSAS AND THE MISSOURI BOOTHEEL SHOULD SEE SOME
DEVELOPMENT OCCUR OVER THE NEXT 1 TO 3 HOURS. FRONT WILL CONTINUE
SINKING SOUTH AND BY 12Z EXPECT NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TO BE OCCURRING ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT AS THE FRONT
INTERACTS WITH DAYTIME HEATING. SOME STORMS COULD BE SEVERE WITH
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS BEING THE MAIN THREATS. HIGHS WILL
LIKELY BE COOLER TODAY WITH A LOT OF LOCATIONS POSSIBLY SEEING
HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S THANKS TO CLOUDS AND RAIN. WARMEST
TEMPERATURES WILL OCCUR IN NORTH MISSISSIPPI WHERE THEY WILL HAVE
A LITTLE LONGER TO WARM UP BEFORE THE FRONT MOVES INTO THE REGION.
HIGHS IN NORTH MISSISSIPPI WILL LIKELY BE IN THE MID 90S. SOME
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY MAY OCCUR INTO THE EVENING ACROSS
NORTH MISSISSIPPI BUT SHOULD DIE DOWN IN COVERAGE BY MIDNIGHT.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST...UPPER RIDGE WILL
GRADUALLY BUILD FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE MID-MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY. THE RIDGE WILL INTENSIFY BY THE END OF THE WEEK AND BY THE
WEEKEND...THE CENTER OF THE RIDGE WILL GRADUALLY START SINKING
SOUTH INTO THE MIDSOUTH. THE RIDGE WILL ALLOW FOR DRY CONDITIONS
THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGHS WILL GRADUALLY WARM EACH DAY AND BY THE
END OF THE WEEK INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEKEND...READINGS WILL
BE IN THE UPPER 90S AND POSSIBLY APPROACHING THE CENTURY MARK.
LOWS WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 DEGREES. NORTHEAST
WINDS WILL ALLOW DEWPOINTS TO MIX DOWN INTO THE LOWER TO MID 60S
THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY. HOWEVER BY FRIDAY THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...MOISTURE WILL RETURN AS SFC WINDS TURN AROUND TO THE
SOUTH. THIS WILL ALLOW DEWPOINTS TO REACH INTO THE LOWER 70S THUS HEAT
ADVISORIES MAY BECOME NECESSARY BY THE END OF THE WEEK INTO THE
WEEKEND. BY MONDAY...THE GFS IS INDICATING THE RIDGE MAY WEAKEN
SOME WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR SOME DIURNAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO
DEVELOP. WILL KEEP A 20 POP OTHERWISE WILL CONTINUE WITH A DRY
FORECAST FROM WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
