886 FXUS64 KLZK 071735 AFDLZK Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Little Rock AR 1135 AM CST Fri Nov 7 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1236 AM CST Fri Nov 7 2025 -Mainly dry conditions for the next several days -Coldest air of the season expected by Sun Night/Mon morning, resulting in most areas seeing sub-freezing conditions -Wind chills dropping into the low/mid teens Sun night for some locations mainly in the higher terrain of the Ozarks && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1236 AM CST Fri Nov 7 2025 Fairly mild conditions are ongoing across the region early this Fri morning...with temps across the Natural State in the 50s and 60s for most areas. To the NW of the state...a new cold front was pushing SE across KS...which will push SE into AR by this Fri afternoon. As this front pushes into the state...moisture levels will remain limited enough that precip chances will remain low for most areas. If some precip were to be seen...the best POPs will be NE of the CWA...though some very isolated SHRA could be seen across NERN portions of the CWA this afternoon along the front. NW winds will be seen briefly behind this front tonight into Sat morning...but winds will switch back from the south briefly during the daytime hrs on Sat. However...a much stronger cold front will surge SE through the region Sat night into Sun morning. This front will bring much colder air to the region...with likely the coldest temps of the season so far expected across AR by Mon morning. In fact...lows by Mon morning should drop below freezing for most areas of the CWA. Wind chills will also be notable...though remaining above any adv level criteria. Wind chills Sun Night/Mon morning will dip into the low/mid teens across some of the higher terrain of the Ozarks. Highs on Mon will struggle to warm out of the 40s for most areas...with some higher elevations seeing highs in the upper 30s. Expect moderating temps starting Tue as SRLY SFC flow returns as SFC high pressure shifts east. Highs by late next week should warm back into the 60s...potentially back into the 70s for some areas. No significant rain chances are expected over the next week as deep moisture levels will remain limited. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1131 AM CST Fri Nov 7 2025 MVFR ceilings continue to linger across central to southern Arkansas early this afternoon. Expect these ceilings to lift to VFR later this afternoon, but will remain SCT-BKN into the evening hours. Otherwise, winds will be mainly W today, then veering NW this evening and through the rest of the period. Skies will become FEW-SCT high clouds for the the overnight hours, except maybe some lingering mid-level clouds 5-7 kft in southern Arkansas. Fog potential looks to be a bit more limited tonight. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
