.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 939 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025

Aside from a dissipating low cloud deck across portions of south
Arkansas and north Louisiana, mostly clear skies currently
prevailing across the remainder of the ArkLaTex. A frontal
boundary across northeast Texas and southwest Arkansas will move
south across the region today. With northwest flow aloft
prevailing, not expecting any precipitation with the frontal
passage. South winds to prevail ahead of the front allowing for
high temperatures in the mid to upper 60s across Deep East Texas
and west-central Louisiana. Surface high pressure building behind
the front will drive low temperatures into the 30s across the
ArkLaTex overnight with near freezing temperatures expected across
southeast Oklahoma and southwest Arkansas.

Cold temperatures will be short-lived as the surface high shifts
east on Thursday, allowing for southerly flow to return across
the region bringing a gradual warming trend. Highs on Thursday
will average in the 50s and 60s with overnight lows in the 40s.

Warming trend to continue into Friday with high temperatures in
the lower 70s across Deep East Texas and portions of north
Louisiana. A cold front will move across the region on Saturday
evening with scattered showers possible south of I-30. The coldest
air of the season will filter behind the front on Sunday into
Sunday night with overnight low temperatures ranging from the
lower 20s across south Arkansas to the mid 20s across much of the
remainder of the ArkLaTex.

Otherwise, rain chances to increase from the west on Tuesday as an
upper-low swings east across the Southern Plains. /05/

(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1152 AM CST Wed Dec 10 2025

VFR and high cirrus around FL250 are all the talk for the start
of the TAF period that will ultimately see SKC by the mid and
late afternoon. This comes via a passing frontal boundary that has
also resulted in a change of the terminal winds from S/SW to N/NW
around 10kt. This will be brief as surface terminal winds will
turn VRB and fairly light overnight, before becoming southerly by
Thursday afternoon, holding between 5-10kt.
