.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 105 PM CDT Fri Sep 26 2025
Quiet and warm weather is forecast as we end September and open
October. Patchy shallow fog development is expected again
in the predawn hours Saturday, especially in low-lying areas.
Some of this could be locally dense across the MO Bootheel
northward along the Mississippi River. H5 troughing and weak
surface high pressure over the region today will gradually
translate towards the eastern seaboard during this weekend. As
H5 ridging increases from the central/southern Great Plains,
temperatures will warm to about 4-8 degrees above normal this
weekend into early next week.
The forecast for the middle to latter half of the next work is
more uncertain. The reason for this is that the lingering
troughing over the East Coast may draw westward tropical
moisture from a disturbance off the Carolina coast into the
region by mid-week. This may lead to an increase in cloud cover
and humidity levels, and perhaps a small chance of showers,
particularly in western Kentucky. However, confidence overall in
how this evolves is low given the uncertainty surrounding the
forecast intensity and path of the potential tropical
disturbance.
