.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 503 AM CDT Thu Apr 2 2020/

Scattered to broken clouds across most of the region and
southerly flow have kept temperatures a few degrees warmer this
morning than what we've seen the past few days. Current
temperatures are in the mid 40s to mid 50s. We're on track to hit
the low 40s and low 50s for lows over the next few hours. High
pressure over eastern CONUS continues to keep us dry.

A weak shortwave that will track through the Mid-South tomorrow
will bring the chance for isolated showers for mostly northeastern
AR and the MO Bootheel. Most of the area will remain dry through
Saturday morning. Temperatures will rise into the low to mid
70s for highs with lows in the 50s.

High pressure centered over the Upper Midwest and another high
centered over the northeast will block a low pressure system as it
slowly moves through eastern CONUS - resulting in a stationary
boundary to set up over the Mid-South through the weekend.
Isolated to scattered showers and storms will be possible
throughout the weekend. Temperatures will be above normal with
highs in the low to upper 70s and lows in the upper 40s and 50s.

The strong ridge over the eastern half of the US will finally
break down and slowly push east to start off the workweek which
will allow a more progressive and zonal longwave pattern to
setup. The upper level jet will set up right over the area which
will result in a path for weak upper level shortwaves to
consistently track through the Mid-South until at least the middle
part of next week. At this time, only general thunderstorms are
expected with limited instability and weak dynamics forecast
through the start of next week. Temperatures will continue to rise
through the week as we remain on the back side of high pressure
with southerly flow across the area. Highs will be in the mid 70s
to low 80s for highs with lows in the 60s.
