.SHORT TERM...
(Issued 211 PM CDT Sun Jul 16 2023)

Tonight through Monday night:

This evening an area of isolated to scattered storms will move in
from the northwest with a frontal boundary. The trough axis,
positive vorticity advection, and frontogenesis line up with some
elevated instability available to tap into. As the area of showers
and storms moves southeast though there will be less instability
so coverage and the potential for lightning is expected to
decrease as we head later into the evening hours. We'll be on the
backside of lift and moisture by 1am across the area with clearing
skies moving in for overnight.

Drier conditions are expected Monday and Monday night as high
pressure slowly builds into the area. Temperatures will be a
little cooler than today with highs in the 70s across the area.

RAH

.LONG TERM...
(Issued 211 PM CDT Sun Jul 16 2023)

Tuesday through Sunday:

High pressure moves over the area for Tuesday. Ensembles are in
agreement that we'll stay dry until Wednesday when another trough
moves through bringing chances for showers and maybe a few
thunderstorms mainly Wednesday night into Thursday. After that
mostly dry conditions are expected. There are signs for another
trough to move through the area, but timing is uncertain. Overall
no one day looks to be a washout.

.AVIATION...
