Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Memphis TN
256 PM CDT FRI JUL 15 2016

.DISCUSSION...

Skies are partly cloudy across much of the forecast area with
temperatures from the mid 80s to lower 90s. Some thunderstorm
activity was over portions of northeast Arkansas and also over
portions of north-central Mississippi. A weak cold front extended
from northeast Ohio through southern Missouri and into eastern
Colorado. The front will drop south into the forecast area later
tonight with additional thunderstorm development possible.
Temperatures will remain on the warm side with lows Saturday
morning in the low to mid 70s.

The front will stall out briefly over the region Saturday morning and
then start to lift back north as a warm front by Saturday
afternoon. This will mean that there will be a chance of
thunderstorms during the day on Saturday. Temperatures will be
quite warm on Saturday with highs in the lower 90s. The warm front
should be north of the region by Saturday evening so dry weather
is expected.

By Sunday, an upper level ridge will start to build into the
region. This will mean more dry weather with temperatures warming
some with highs in the low to mid 90s. More dry and hot weather is
expected through Monday as well with heat index values exceeding
100 in many locations.

Upper level disturbances will drop through Missouri and into the
forecast area on Tuesday and Wednesday bringing a chance of
thunderstorms each day. Temperatures will remain rather hot with
highs in the low to mid 90s. Dry weather returns for Thursday and
next Friday as the upper level ridge remains in control.
