Updated the aviation section for the 12Z TAF issuance.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 130 AM CDT Sun Oct 4 2026

Dry conditions and seasonable temperatures continue today. A dry cold front provides reinforcing northerly flow and some high clouds this morning. High pressure pushes eastward through the Midwest early week, with a ridge axis moving through Tuesday. The high eventually sets up to our east mid-late week, which will allow for a more southerly component to winds locally. Temperatures slowly warm mid to late week with southerly flow with late week highs into the 80s.

Models are in strong alignment on dry conditions through at least Friday. Precipitation chances only return next weekend, with models favoring the Deep South for rain chances but differing strongly on the type of system, so continued monitoring will be needed.

A few localized vsby drops should improve shortly with VFR conditions across the Quad State through the duration of the TAF period. High clouds decrease later in the day. Northerly winds of 5-7kts during the day become light tonight.
