...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Monday Night)
Issued at 202 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2022

Strong cold front is beginning its surge south and east into our
area attm as sfc pressure rises can be seen north and west of the
I-30 Corridor. Likewise, tighter pressure gradient exists across
this region as well, not to mention the compressional warming we
are seeing in the pre-frontal airmass near and southeast of the
corridor. Over the last hour, a broken line of elevated convection
has developed north and west of the I-30 Corridor with CB bases
more consistent with upper midwest convection. For that reason,
will need to watch for the possibility of dry microburst potential
mainly through sunset between the I-30 and I-20 Corridors. Did
expand low end chance pops just in advance of the current
convection on radar through the evening hours but the closer we
get to midnight, should really start to see convection loosing its
coverage and intensity, as we are only forecasting rain chances
less than 20 percent south of the I-20 Corridor after midnight.

Cold front pushes through our entire region tonight with post
frontal cold air advection in its wake. Did undercut NBM temps
slightly overnight, especially across SE OK and SW AR. Stayed very
close to NBM temps for daytime highs on Monday as milder and
drier air continues to spill into the region. Did continue the
trend of undercutting overnight minimum temperatures Monday night,
again more so across our northern and northeastern zones as upper
40s cannot be ruled out across our more sheltered areas of SE OK
and SW AR.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through next Saturday)
Issued at 202 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2022

A very welcomed shift in the pattern is expected over the course of
this long-term, with the first extended period of fall temperatures
likely.

We'll start this long-term under the post-frontal airmass working in
over the short-term, with highs Tuesday afternoon across the region
ranging in the mid to upper-80s. Temperatures into Wednesday will
follow this trend, for pretty much a seasonal feel afternoon wise
into Thursday. However, there is a chance that overnight lows will
be well below average into Thursday with limited cloud cover and
stiff NE winds. The interesting shift, or rather reinforcement in
the pattern looks to come on Thursday with the landfall of now TS
Ian. Here, the surface trough will extend, or rather be forced down
into the region by the landfalling tropical system. Trailing this
trough will be another frontal boundary that is also getting pushed
through the region by Ian. This should result in another shot of
cold air, which will allow for below average temperatures headed
into the weekend. Given how long-range guidance tends to plot warmer
than actual during the overnight hours, widespread 40's are not out
of the realm of possibility Thursday and Friday nights.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1100 AM CDT Sun Sep 25 2022

While isolated to widely scattered convection will be possible
later this afternoon through this evening near and south of the
I-20 Corridor ahead of a strong cold front that will be moving
through our airspace, storm coverage does not warrant mentioning
in the 18z TAF package. Will instead handle anything close to an
airport with an AMD if necessary. Otherwise, mid level cloud cover
will be in an out across our airspace ahead of the front and post
frontal as well but all ceilings should remain VFR in nature. Look
for WNW winds prevailing near 10kts, with those winds quickly
veering around to a NW, N and eventually NNE direction during this
TAF period as well.
