Forecasters' discussion

From the National Weather Service office in RLX, issued 4 hrs ago

What Has Changed

No significant changes have been made to the ongoing forecast, and benign weather continues to be forecast for the next 7 days.

Key Messages

1) Beyond the typical bouts of morning river valley fog, dry weather will dominate the forecast for the next 7 days, along with some patchy morning frost across the higher terrain.

Discussion

KEY MESSAGE 1...

In the mid/upper-levels, an Omega Block remains anchored across the Lower 48, with high pressure expected to continue dominating the forecast across the CWA for the next 7 days. The apex of the subtropical ridge, which is currently centered across the Great Plains, will gradually shift eastward over the next couple of days, as a high-amplitude, positively-tilted trough digs into the Desert Southwest. The superposition of the subtropical ridge relative to the CWA will maintain convergent flow aloft, keeping the formation of even diurnally-driven boundary-layer cu from occurring each afternoon. Excellent radiational cooling at night will result in the usual development of fog across the river valleys, with visibilities falling to one-quarter mile at times; and fog of any kind will erode by 14-15Z each morning through the weekend. Some slight reductions were made to the dewpoints for the forthcoming afternoons due to the full insolation, along with bias-corrected tuning of the overnight lows tonight and Friday night due to the arrival of a modifying mP airmass trailing the decayed front/surface trough that is expected propagate through the region later this afternoon and tonight. The arrival of this surface boundary should keep the development of frost during the nighttime hours in check; however, patchy frost cannot be ruled out across the higher terrain tonight and beyond.

Aviation

VFR will prevail through late tonight, before river valley fog develops once again near and after 23/08Z. Fog will dissipate by 23/14-15Z. SIGWX NIL until further notice otherwise, with light, northerly winds today transitioning towards the northeast Friday.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: High.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: The coverage and extent of fog tonight may vary from the forecast.
