.DISCUSSION... Issued at 1243 AM CDT Mon Sep 15 2025
Ridging will continue to break down across the Four State Region through the beginning of this work week with chances of rain increasing by the middle of the week as a result. Aloft, this is also due to the beginning of a synoptic pattern shift where troughing takes hold across more of the Great Plains. Downstream flow into the area will gain a northwesterly component, propagating enough vorticity/perturbations in this flow to enhance convection after Wednesday. Medium and long-range guidance all suggest a primarily diurnally driven convective pattern with some lingering storms overnight by the end of the week. Altogether this activity will allow for a reprieve from above-normal late summer heat with temperature maximums in the low-to-mid 90s. /16/

.AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 547 AM CDT Mon Sep 15 2025
For the 15/12z TAF update...Radar imagery this morning remains quiet across the region while satellite imagery continues to show some high clouds filtering through the area. I have prevailed SCT250 to BKN250 for all terminals through the rest of the morning. By later this morning, our daily cu field will begin to develop, so I have mention of SCT080 around 15/16z gradually dropping to around SCT060 around 15/21z. While it doesn`t show in the PoPs for today, I do have mention of VCSH for all terminals around 15/21z. Models are split down the middle with the amount of shower development we will get this afternoon, but leaning towards some of the more aggressive ones at least puts us with some vicinity showers, while at the same time not providing enough confidence that anything will directly impact a terminal. Aside from any stronger winds from any stronger storms that may develop, winds will be out of the east and under 5kts throughout this period. /33/
