532 FXUS64 KSHV 271735 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1135 AM CST Thu Nov 27 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1217 AM CST Thu Nov 27 2025 - Dry, near-seasonable conditions will continue through Thanksgiving. - The next rounds of rain return through this weekend into early next week. - While uncertainty remains high, some low-end potential exists (< 20%-30%) for wintry precipitation by early next week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1217 AM CST Thu Nov 27 2025 Aloft, a relatively active synoptic pattern continues with northwesterly flow behind longwave troughing that will shift east over the Atlantic Ocean by the end of the week. This longwave trough is currently transiting the Mississippi River valley and quickly making its way towards the East Coast. In its wake, quasi- zonal flow will gradually allow for steering perturbations across the area embedded withing a series of troughs shifting across the Intermountain West through the weekend into next week. Combined with Pacific moisture and some cold air infiltration, long-range guidance continues to indicate increasing potential for wintry precipitation, most likely in the form of freezing rain. That said, great uncertainty remains regarding the alignment of enough cold air, moisture and lift for wintry precipitation, all of which still only adds up to a 5-10% chance of occurrence at this time. Temperatures will remain near-normal (maximums in the 60s, minimums in the 40s) until Sunday as the next air mass is ushered in with frontal passage to bring temperatures back below normal into the first days of December (maximums in the 50s, minimums in the 20s-30s at the coldest on Monday night). /16/ && .AVIATION...
