DISCUSSION

11 a.m. obs have all improved with visibility, but temps will take another hour or two at least. A mix of chilly upper 30s and lower 40s are set to add another 10 to 15 degrees for highs this mid afternoon. The cold air mass will scour slightly out our local river vallies for a warmer day on Wednesday, which should preclude much fog for low clouds instead, breaking late morning again. A range of 40s to start for most with some above average 60s for highs. However, the winds will be shifting from SW to NW again to round out the with slightly cooler readings briefly on Thursday, before resuming a move toward "room temperatures" for Friday and Saturday.
Moisture return on the back side of the weak bubble high should translate into some light showers on Saturday and Saturday night before the next big cold front for Sunday. Our winds will be backing (back dooring) to NE overnight, setting us up for more clouds and eventually some light rainfall, less than a tenth per WPC days 4 & 5. Meanwhile, our high temps will tumble back to below average for the end of our long term here with more ascent over the shallow chill from a 1042mb sprawling air mass pouring down the MS River Valley, This will likely be bringing soil wetting showers back in earnest during early next week, especially if you like the ECMWF. For now, our QPF is from the WPC with expectations for around a half inch widespread in their days 6 & 7. /24/
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS) Issued at 1254 PM CST Tue Dec 9 2025
Dense FG and low OVC is quickly burning off and scattering out this afternoon, with SKC likely to return airspace wide as early as 21z. VFR will hold across the airspace through much of the evening and the early overnight period until low clouds look to advance back north from the coast after midnight. For now, advertising a mix of SCT/BKN below 2kft. Good chance that some of the far southern terminals may see BKN/OVC around the same heights or lower. As a result, MVFR is the max advertised, but potential for instances of IFR can not be ruled out. Winds through the period will start southerly, shifting to more of a SSW/W flow through the late morning and early afternoon.
