.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Thursday Night)
Issued at 1201 PM CDT Tue Apr 23 2024

A warmer day is in place across the mid state. Under moderate 
southwesterly breezes the temperatures are mostly in the 60s this 
late morning. The surface map features a frontal boundary located 
well to our northwest, with the boundary stretching from WI through 
KN. This cold front will be a weak player in tonight's weather. It 
is expected to push through the area early Wednesday morning. 
Showalter values should remain positive with little in the way of 
cape overnight. Thus, just expecting some shower activity but pops 
and qpf will be on the low side. 

Surface high to our north will be in control on Wednesday into 
Thursday with a light northerly and northeasterly flow. The next 
chance of showers and perhaps a thunderstorm will occur on Thursday 
night. At that time, a warm front will be lifting northward through 
our area.  

For the near term temps, values will run close to normal through the 
period. Humidity levels will start to tick upward with that Thursday 
night warm fropa.
