060 FXUS64 KSHV 220810 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 210 AM CST Sun Dec 22 2024 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... .SHORT TERM... (Sunday through Monday) Issued at 139 AM CST Sun Dec 22 2024 Surface high pressure across the region to shift east today. The combination of the retreating high and a deepening surface low just east of the Rockies will allow for southeast winds to increase areawide, with the highest values near 10 mph across northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma. With winds becoming southeast, temperatures to gradually warm areawide with highs today in the mid to upper 60s and above freezing overnight lows tonight in the mid 30s to mid 40s. On Monday, warming trend to continue with afternoon highs in the in the low to mid 60s areawide. Additionally, near zonal flow aloft ahead of an approaching trough across west Texas will allow for enough instability to support elevated isolated convection across southeast Oklahoma and northeast Texas by late Monday afternoon. /05/ && .LONG TERM... (Monday Night through Sunday) Issued at 139 AM CST Sun Dec 22 2024 A progressive pattern expected through much of the long-term period characterized by a series of upper-level disturbances and surface boundaries swinging east across the ArkLaTex mainly on Tuesday evening into the overnight hours and again on Thursday evening into the overnight hours. The stronger of these two disturbances appears to be the Thursday evening system, which could result in a low-end severe thunderstorm threat depending on available moisture return and the extent of destabilization that may occur ahead of the low-amplitude broad trough that will approach from the west. Rain chances to linger through Friday into Saturday as upper- trough ejects northeast leaving the ArkLaTex within a broad southwest flow regime above an abandoned frontal boundary. Periods of mainly scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will be possible. Otherwise, temperatures throughout the long term period to range from highs in the mid 60s to lower 70s with lows in the 50s each day. /05/ && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1059 PM CST Sat Dec 21 2024 For the 22/06Z TAF period, VFR conditions will prevail as mostly SKC continues to dominate our airspace. Some cumulus will return during the latter half of the period as sfc/low-level flow veers more SE between 5-10 kts on Sunday. Otherwise, expect lgt/vrbl winds this evening and through the overnight hours with continued SKC through daybreak before clouds begin to increase from the west throughout the day. 19 && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
