Forecasters' discussion

From the National Weather Service office in RLX, issued 13 hrs ago

What Has Changed

Beyond some trivial changes to temperatures and dewpoints for the next few days, the forecast remains on track.

Key Messages

1) Pleasant weather will continue into late next week, with riverine fog during the predawn hours each day.

Discussion

KEY MESSAGE 1...

Slightly positive geopotential heights will result in gradually warmer high temperatures heading into next week as the subtropical ridge shifts eastward over the CWA. Strong subsidence will persist aloft and maintain the dry airmass across the region. Riverine fog will develop once again tonight, but with lesser coverage as dry air intrusion nixes more-widespread fog development during the predawn hours each day. SIGWX NIL until further notice.

Aviation

VFR conditions can be expected through the period with the exception of some late night early morning dense river valley fog.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE AND ALTERNATE SCENARIOS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY...

FORECAST CONFIDENCE: High.

ALTERNATE SCENARIOS: Timing and location of fog could vary.
