.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 411 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2014

UPDATED TO CANCEL FLASH FLOOD WATCH.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TODAY/...
ISSUED AT 338 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2014

MAIN SYSTEM BEGINNING TO PULL AWAY EARLY TODAY WITH REMAINING
CONVECTION EXITING THE SOUTHEAST EARLY TODAY AND A DEFORMATION AXIS
LIGHT RAIN STILL OCCURRING OVER THE NORTH THROUGH MID MORNING. THE
FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE CANCELED FOR THE 4 AM PACKAGE WITH THE
REMAINING COUNTIES ALREADY IN WARNING...AND LITTLE IF ANY ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL EXPECTED THIS MORNING. CLOUDS WILL HOLD ON AND COLDER
CONDITIONS WITH INCREASING NORTH WINDS WILL BRING THE COOLER AIR
ACROSS THE REGION FOR THE REMAINDER OF TODAY. AS THE LOW PULLS
AWAY...GRADUALLY THE PRECIPITATION WILL END AND CLOUDS WILL BEGIN TO
SHOW SOME EROSION BY LATE IN THE AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING HOURS.
BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON... TEMPERATURES SHOULD COOL INTO THE LOWER
TO MID 50S ACROSS THE NORTHWEST AND IN THE MID 60S IN THE SOUTHEAST.

.LONG TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
ISSUED AT 338 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2014

DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED TONIGHT WITH SOME LINGERING LOW STRATUS
EXPECTED TO REMAIN THROUGH THE NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. MAY
SEE SOME PEEKS OF SUN EARLY THURSDAY...BUT A WEAK UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE PUSHING EASTWARD THROUGH THE REGION ALOFT SHOULD
KEEP SOME CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE DAY. A LARGER
UPPER LEVEL WAVE DIGS INTO THE CENTRAL US BY FRIDAY...WITH AN AREA
OF PRECIPITATION EXPECTED ALONG ANOTHER COLD FRONT DROPPING
THROUGH THE STATE AND BAROCLINIC ZONE SITUATED ACROSS THE REGION
ALOFT. THIS WILL BRING IN ANOTHER REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR FOR
LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. PRECIP AMOUNTS SHOULD BE FAIRLY LIGHT
AROUND A TENTH TO QUARTER OF AN INCH. A LARGE AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE THEN BUILDS INTO THE STATE FOR THE WEEKEND WITH DRY AND
COOL CONDITIONS EXPECTED. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH DROPS THROUGH
THE CWA SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY WHICH COULD BRING ANOTHER
CHANCE FOR SOME LIGHT SHOWERS...WITH DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO
RESUME INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK AS ANOTHER LARGE AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION.

TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD WILL BE WELL BELOW AVERAGE FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR AS H85 TEMPS DROP INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE
ZERO OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...AND RECOVER SOME INTO THE WEEKEND.
CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA FOR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY ALONG
WITH THE PRECIP CHANCES FRIDAY WHICH WILL HELP KEEP TEMPS EVEN
COOLER. SOME NEAR RECORD MINIMUM HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE POSSIBLE
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA FOR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. SKIES ARE
EXPECTED TO CLEAR OUT FRIDAY NIGHT WITH THE HIGH SETTLING INTO THE
AREA AND LIGHT WINDS WHICH WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO DROP INTO THE 30S
ACROSS THE AREA...ALLOWING FOR NEAR RECORD LOW TEMPERATURES
POSSIBLY BY SATURDAY MORNING. THERE MAY BE THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME
PATCHY FROST EARLY SATURDAY MORNING AS WELL...BUT THERE IS SOME
UNCERTAINTY IN HOW LONG THE CLOUD COVER MAY LINGER ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT. TEMPS THEN REBOUND SOME INTO THE WEEKEND
AND EARLY NEXT WEEK...BUT OVERALL REMAIN BELOW THE SEASONAL
AVERAGES.
