Thursday Forecast

Here is a look at the 18z GFS run (computer model) depicting the weather for 1:00 pm Thursday.







The hottest temperatures will remain firmly entrenched across the Southwest and Mexico. Much of the Southeast continues with the northwest flow aloft, and with the passage of a weak cold front earlier in the week, we have a northerly flow at the surface. Those will slowly shift to the south tonight as the front falls apart. As you can see, tomorrow will be dry across the Mid-South. Tropical moisture is being pulled northward into Florida. Some much-needed rain will fall there. Elsewhere, clusters of showers and thunderstorms will develop and ride south/southeast along that northwest flow aloft from Wyoming into Texas.

Here for the Mid-South, we'll continue with typical June highs in the mid to uppers 80s for Thursday. We'll wake up to 65-68 degrees in the morning. All in all, it will be another pleasant, slightly less humid day across the area.

Later posts will focus on rain chances for the weekend.
