538 FXUS64 KSHV 100010 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 710 PM CDT Sun Jun 9 2024 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM... (This evening through Monday Night) Issued at 149 PM CDT Sun Jun 9 2024 Shower and thunderstorm chances will begin to increase tonight, as upper-level ridging begins to break down ahead of the trough and cold front. Thankfully, organized rain chances continue to look limited, with total QPF values remaining limited as well. The front as a whole continues to look a little more diffuse, but thankfully we can still expect a decent swing in temperatures behind the front into Tuesday. Highs tomorrow will be limited by the additional cloud cover as well, with highs only getting up into the low to upper-80s. Lows tonight will still hover in the mid-70s, before dropping behind the front tomorrow into the low to upper-60s. /44/ && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday through next Saturday) Issued at 149 PM CDT Sun Jun 9 2024 Thankfully, the long-term looks a little less active today as well, as the one "big" midweek system may remain well to our west. If you remember my discussion yesterday, you`ll remember me talking about a lot of uncertainty regarding the scope and speed of the disturbance moving SE out of the Rocky Mountains. Well, it looks like that disturbance will work into central Texas by Wednesday, where it will break apart into the day on Thursday. This will keep that heaviest axis of rain to our west as well, resulting in only scattered shower and thunderstorm chances in our far western zones into Wednesday afternoon. From there, upper-level ridging moves back overhead, with afternoon highs climbing back into the mid to upper-90s. Organized rain activity will be limited during this time, with only isolated chances in our southern zones from seabreeze activity. /44/ && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 637 PM CDT Sun Jun 9 2024 Upper ridge continues to slide into the northern GOM this afternoon with TSRA north of the I-30 corridor. This should remain well removed from the local terminals this evening, but MVFR CIGs will be the bigger story overnight. As a cold front slides south into the airspace early Monday AM, diurnal heating along and ahead of the boundary will support TSRA/SHRA initiation by the mid to late afternoon, impacting area terminals either directly or located within the vicinity through the end of the period.
