093 FXUS64 KSHV 272337 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 637 PM CDT Sun Sep 27 2026 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1150 AM CDT Sun Sep 27 2026 - Isolated to scattered showers are possible in the afternoon hours north of the I-30 corridor, increasing in coverage west and south Monday. - Afternoon high temperatures will increase into the low to middle 90s through the first half of the week. - More widespread rainfall chances return late in the week, possibly as soon as Wednesday, with flash flooding increasingly possible. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1152 AM CDT Sun Sep 27 2026 Surface ridge across the region to maintain light winds through Monday. Aloft, northwest flow to prevail ahead of a building ridge that will drive afternoon high temperatures back into the mid 90s through midweek. A few showers and storms may be possible across northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma this afternoon and into east Texas and north Louisiana on Monday. By Tuesday, the upper-ridge will be firmly established across the ArkLaTex bringing the driest and hottest day of the forecast period with highs in the mid 90s. At the surface, southerly winds will increase as the surface high retreats northeast, bringing with it increased gulf moisture. From midweek onward, major global models still have failed to come into agreement regarding the timing of an advertised heavy rainfall event resulting from the remnants of a tropical system in the Pacific becoming absorbed by the southern stream jet. The GFS seems to be the most aggressive with stalling a line of convection across ArkLaTex Wednesday night, with rain continuing into Thursday. With this scenario, a flash flood threat would be possible due to the compact soils and the potential for up to 3 inch rainfall totals across mainly east and northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma during this time period. The European model, unfortunately stalls the convection across central Texas during this same time frame. As these two forecast models come into agreement, the mid to long term forecast is prone to further adjustments. Although rain chances could continue into Friday, conditions are forecast to improve throughout the day with rainfall rates expected to be rather light. Otherwise, daytime temperatures from Wednesday onward will average in the 80s. /05/ && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 630 PM CDT Sun Sep 27 2026 VFR conditions expected to prevail through the period for most sites. Light and variable winds with some cu or AC overnight. Several East TX sites may have calm winds for much of the night, with moisture return helping worsen conditions at KLFK in the hours before daybreak tomorrow. Confidence on sub VFR cigs is not high enough to include at this time for other sites. After sunrise tomorrow, expect cigs to lift and eventually clear with an incoming push of dry air. Some scattered showers will be possible for parts of East TX in the last hours of the period, but exact locations outside of KTYR are uncertain. /57/ && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
