DISCUSSION

Issued at 1204 AM CDT Mon Jun 29 2026

Surface and upper level ridging will continue to dominate the area today. This will maintain the dry and hot conditions. An isolated shower or storm cannot be completely ruled out this afternoon, however most areas will remain dry. Subsidence under the ridge will also lead to continued hot conditions with highs in the low to mid 90s. Some areas could reach the upper 90s. Heat index values will continue to flirt with heat advisory criteria each afternoon, however most areas will remain in the 103 to 107 range. The upper ridge will move north of the area Tuesday into Wednesday, placing the area in an easterly flow regime. Increased deep layer moisture combined with shortwaves moving through the easterly flow will bring higher rain chances to the area on Tuesday with scattered to locally numerous showers and thunderstorms. Best chances will remain east of the I-65 corridor. Storms on Tuesday may also have the chance to become strong to severe, with primary hazards being gusty to locally damaging winds in addition to heavy rainfall and lightning.

For the remainder of the week, we remain generally under deep layer easterly flow with the ridge centered just north of us. This will continue to promote isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms each day while highs continue to top out in the lower to middle 90s. Overnight lows stay warm throughout the forecast period in the lower to middle 70s. A Low risk of rip currents continues through this week. /13
