AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1229 AM CDT Sat Jun 6 2026

VFR conditions will prevail through 10Z at all TAF sites. Ceilings lower nearer to dawn, dropping to MVFR/IFR as low stratus develops across the region. Thereafter, MVFR/IFR ceilings will persist through the remainder of the TAF period as rain chances increase. Embedded thunderstorms within the area of scattered showers will become more likely near the afternoon hours but coverage across all guidances remain low at this time, as such we are going with showers for the time being./OAJ/

AVIATION

(12Z TAFS) Issued at 545 AM CDT Sat Jun 6 2026

VFR conditions will prevail through 10Z at all TAF sites. Ceilings lower nearer to dawn, dropping to MVFR/IFR as low stratus develops across the region. Thereafter, MVFR/IFR ceilings will persist through the remainder of the TAF period as rain chances increase. Embedded thunderstorms within the area of scattered showers will become more likely near the afternoon hours moving in from the south along channeled moisture. Far northern sites may be spared any precipitation impacts, but areas along and south of I-20 will see some significant rainfall with embedded thunderstorms throughout the afternoon. Overnight expect MVFR/IFR ceilings to develop throughout the CWA, raising/clearing up an hour or two after sunrise./OAJ/
