.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1258 AM EDT Thu Oct 2 2025
A dome of high pressure currently sits over Quebec, expected to
sink further south with time. Meanwhile, what was once amplified
ridging overhead, will broaden across much of the country. We
will sit under this influence of broadened ridging and surface
high pressure that will eventually center over the Mid-Atlantic
region. A developing trough will deepen and move eastward,
compressing the ridge and potentially change our weather pattern
next week.
Today will be notably cooler than yesterday, with valley highs
remaining in the lower 80s instead of the mid to upper 80s. It
will also feel a bit drier out too. Temperatures will continue
the "cooler" trend or what`s normal for October, as well as drier
air settling in for at least part of the weekend, before moisture
return. With that said, expect quiet and calm conditions weather-
wise through early Sunday or so. Sunday into Monday time frame, a
Gulf Coast frontal boundary may try to send moisture northward
towards our area, returning the chance for precipitation. The
aforementioned trough will march across the country with a
developing cold front that may impact the area around the end of
the forecast period or the middle of next week.

(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1258 AM EDT Thu Oct 2 2025
Clear skies and light winds are expected through the period. There
is a low risk of fog formation at KTRI and LIFR CIGS at KTYS, but
the odds of this occurring are low enough to not include in the
TAFs at this time.
