809 FXUS64 KSHV 241809 AAA AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Shreveport LA 109 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 ...New AVIATION... .UPDATE... Issued at 1054 AM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 The only noteworthy modification necessary at this time was expanding the slight chance PoPs across east Texas further north towards the I-20 corridor through the 18Z hour. Otherwise, the overnight forecast package appears on track. /26/ && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 109 PM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 Mostly VFR conditions will continue through the 24/18Z TAF period. Cu cigs have developed early this afternoon along and S of a weak sfc front that extends just S of the I-20 corridor of E TX into NW LA, with AC and cirrus cigs also streaming ENE atop the front. Isolated to widely scattered convection is expected to develop by mid-afternoon ahead of the front over portions of Deep E TX into NCntrl LA, and VCTS was maintained at LFK to account for this potential through mid-evening before ending. While low AC and cirrus cigs may linger over these areas overnight, additional mainly elevated cigs will quickly spread SSE into the region from the NW after 06Z Wednesday, as scattered mainly elevated convection develops along a stronger cold front that will slide SSE through the region. Have added VCSH to the area terminals after 09Z, and carried them through the remainder of the 18Z TAF period, although the elevated convection should diminish from N to S by mid to late morning. Some patchy MVFR cigs may also develop by/after daybreak Wednesday especially over portions of E TX/Wrn LA, with any cigs returning to VFR by the afternoon. WNW winds around 5kts this afternoon will become Lt/Vrb after 00Z. /15/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
