(Today and tonight) As of 2 AM CDT, the weak cold front was located near the I40 corridor and is expected to continue moving slowly southward. Temperatures may be a degree or two cooler behind the front, otherwise the only noticable difference ahead and behind the front will be wind direction. The setup will be somewhat similar to yesterday with a sliver of mid level moisture being situated overhead as a weakness within the ridge also moves overhead. The persistent upper ridge will keep highs in the low/upper 90s area wide.
243 AM MDT Thu Oct 10 2024 KEY MESSAGES: 1) A cold frontal passage today brings more seasonal temperatures through the weekend and a slight chance for showers tonight. WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: Winds are switching over to the northwest this morning and will be gusty at times today behind a cold front that will lead to a downward trend in temperatures through the weekend.
- A cold front will bring more clouds tonight, and may prevent the viewing of a possible impressive display of the northern lights.
This will bring a chance for widespread freezing temperatures. High clouds are moving into the area this evening over the ridge. Winds are majority southerly across the area, bringing in warmer air. Upper riding continues through tonight and tomorrow with southerly winds and warm air advection ahead of the cold front coming in Thursday night.

1149 PM CDT Wed Oct 9 2024 (Rest of tonight) A subtle mid-level vort max will progress slowly southeastward from the Ozarks overnight, embedded within a weakening belt of WNW flow aloft surrounding an upper low over southern Quebec/northern New England. At the surface, a weakening ridge (initially across the Lower OH Valley) will be reinforced by a stronger dome of high pressure building south-southeastward into the Great Lakes (in the wake of the departing upper low to it northeast). This will maintain a tight pressure gradient and slightly stronger NNE winds across the TN Valley, which should result in overnight lows a degree or so warmer (compared to last night).
