WEATHER UPDATE
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TODAY, AS A STRONG UPPER LEVEL RODGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EAST FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. AFTERNOON PEAK HEAT INDICES ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH WILL RANGE FROM AROUND 100 DEGREES NEAR THE TENNESSEE RIVER, TO 108 DEGREES OVER EASTERN ARKANSAS.
A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE WILL BRING SOME RELIEF FROM THE HEAT ON FRIDAY. IN ADDITION, THIS FRONT WILL PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. A FEW OF WHICH COULD REACH SEVERE LIMITS.
