An elongated upper ridge located to the north will expand this week with surface high pressure centered from the Midwest and Ohio Valley. Much drier conditions can be expected today and into Tuesday with temperatures slowly climbing into the mid to upper 80s. The forecast the rest of this week and into the weekend looks more summer like. A few afternoon showers and storms are possible mainly for southern portions of the area. The highest chances for rain this week are on Wednesday when an upper disturbance moves east to west to our south. High temperatures will climb into the upper 80s to lower 90s by mid to late week and into the weekend.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY/

Issued at 1202 PM CDT Mon Jul 13 2026

VFR through the next 24 hours. Northeast winds of 7-11 kts will decrease to 3-5 knots tonight. Afternoon CU with bases rising to 4-5 kft will clear out by this evening and tonight. Can't rule out an isolated shower or storm across western Kentucky this afternoon but it should be isolated enough to not have a mention in the TAFs.
