.DISCUSSION...STRONG HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING SOUTHEAST INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY WILL CONTINUE TO FILTER A COLDER/DRIER INTO
THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. DESPITE DEW POINTS FALLING INTO THE MID
AND UPPER 20S IN MOST PLACES...WITH NORTHERLY WINDS BETWEEN 5-10 MPH
HANGING ON THROUGH THE NIGHT AND WITH SOME MID CLOUDS WORKING THEIR
WAY INTO THE CWA FROM THE WEST...LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WON'T BE
ABLE TO FALL TO WHAT THEY'RE CAPABLE OF REACHING.

THE CURRENT FORECAST LOOKS TO HANDLE ALL OF THIS WELL. THUS...OTHER
THAN SOME MINOR TWEAKING OF THE HOURLY GRIDS BASED ON TRENDS...NO
MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST WILL BE MADE AT THIS TIME.

UPDATED GRIDS WILL BE OUT SHORTLY.

VFR CONDITIONS THERE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT. VFR
CONDITIONS WILL BE SEEN AT ALL TAF SITES OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
