765 FXUS64 KSHV 051817 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1217 PM CST Fri Dec 5 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 955 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025 - Damp and dreary conditions will stick around until sunshine returns on Sunday. - A warming trend will bring temperatures back into the mid and upper 60s by the middle of next week. - The next earliest opportunity for cool temperatures and rain may come late next week or early next weekend. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 955 AM CST Fri Dec 5 2025 The final areas of light rain or drizzle in our far southeastern zones should end this evening as the forecast period begins, leaving the region chilly and dry through the overnight hours. The recent rainfall and already moist air mass present will create a risk for fog early tomorrow morning, especially for the western half of the CWA. As of now, the fog is expected to remain patchy. However, the evening forecast package may update the fog coverage or intensity depending on future model runs. The region will remain cloudy until a drier airmass moves in from the northwest on Sunday. A wintertime northwest flow pattern will help keep conditions dry and clear for next week. Afternoon high temperatures will be near average for the first part of the week-- mostly in the upper 50s to low 60s. The combination of clear skies, subsidence, and a southerly wind shift will begin a warming trend midweek and bring unseasonably warm temperatures back to the area. Much of the region could see temperatures in the mid to upper 60s by Wednesday or Thursday. Long range models are beginning to hint at a low to mid-level boundary moving through the Four State Region during the day on Friday, which will likely be the earliest that we could see cooler air and rain chances return. 57 && .AVIATION...
