161 FXUS64 KSHV 061918 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 218 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Friday Night) Issued at 139 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 Quiet weather is anticipated to continue into the weekend, as upper-level ridging continues to meander over Texas. This will allow for the hot and humid conditions to continue, with afternoon highs climbing into the mid-90s each day. There is some potential overnight for some patchy fog, but given how the patchy fog underperformed last night, there will likely be more isolated pockets of it tonight. Even the winds won`t be much to speak of over the next 36-hours, with winds remaining variable under 5 MPH. /44/ && .LONG TERM... (Saturday through next Wednesday) Issued at 139 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 Shower and thunderstorm chances return to the forecast by Sunday, as a cold front will begin to work it`s way south from the Midwest. Thankfully, overall rainfall amounts with this system appear to be limited, and no major additional QPF is anticipated. Additionally, the severe weather threat appears to be limited as well, with most of the forecast resembling general thunder. Behind the front on Monday, afternoon highs will drop around five degrees, with highs "falling" into the mid to upper-80s. This drop in temperature will be short lived however, as highs will begin to climb back into the mid-90s towards the middle of the workweek. /44/ && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1215 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 High pressure is delivering a plethora of VFR conditions to the region today. Low level winds are generally light from the north. A limited cu field with bases of 4 to 5 kft will generally be confined to Deep East TX and the Arklamiss. Winds tonight will go light with patches of shallow mist expected across much of the region. The highest potential for brief sub-VFR conditions due to vis reductions will be at LFK, MLU, and ELD around and shortly after daybreak. Thereafter, expect more VFR conditions and mostly clear skies with winds light out of the northeast through east. /50/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
