240 PM CDT Thursday Aug 21 2008 


Discussion... 
after another round of rains and thunderstorms this morning...activity 
is quickly dissipating this afternoon. These storms were a result of 
the upper level trough that has been sitting over Texas the next couple 
of days. This system is forecasted to elongate and weaken by Friday 
morning...and therefore rain chances return to seasonal late morning 
through afternoon showers and thunderstorms over the next week. 


The only exception will be as remnants of Fay reach MS by the Monday- 
Tuesday time frame...have lowered probability of precipitation region wide to slight chance 
due to subsidence/drier air. 


Temperature-wise...showing afternoon highs in the low to middle 90s...but 
depending on how strong the subsidence is next week...could see temperatures 
reach into the middle or upper 90s. 


&& 


Aviation... 
VFR conditions should prevail through the evening. MVFR conditions 
are expected for patchy ground fog late tonight.
