765 FXUS64 KSHV 070252 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 952 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 ...New UPDATE... .UPDATE... Issued at 934 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 High pressure continues to influence the Four State this evening as clear skies carry overhead. Local area ASOS/AWOS over the last hour are reporting obs in the upper 70`s and even a few low 80`s. Lows should end up in the lower 70`s and upper 60`s by morning, but with dew points a few degrees cooler when compared to last night, fog probs are lower. Regardless, not ruling out a drop in visibility for some of the more fog prone locations. Overall, no real update is needed at this time as the afternoon package is on track. RK && .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... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 606 PM CDT Thu Jun 6 2024 Surface high pressure to prevail across area terminals through the forecast period ending 08/00Z. Otherwise, light and variable winds tonight will become southeast at around 6 knots after 07/15Z. /05/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
