KEY MESSAGES

- Headline heat continues thru at least Thursday, but it will remain stifling hot and humid right thru the weekend; additional or extended heat headlines may become warranted.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY/

Issued at 1200 PM CDT Tue Aug 11 2026

A persistence strategy forecast suggests a continuation of FEW- SCT low VFR bases that are diurnally driven, beneath SCT-BKN mid to high level bases that are essentially debris clouds from near vicinity upstream convection; convective chances do appear to be low enough at the terminals to preclude from this forecast, but will heighten tmrw afternoon and evening as the focusing boundary adjusts its positioning nearer our terminals over the next 24-36 hours.
