159 FXUS64 KSHV 030625 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1225 AM CST Wed Dec 3 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1104 PM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 - Patchy dense fog possible this morning, increasing chance of precipitation this evening/overnight. - Precipitation continues through Thursday and Friday, resulting in cooler temperatures. - Dry, warming conditions begin on Sunday and continue through the middle of next week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1104 PM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 A few things to note about the forecast for the rest of the night. First, as mentioned in the discussion this afternoon, temperatures tonight are going to be highly dependent on any cloud cover that forms or continues. Right now, satellite imagery continues to show low clouds across northeast and north central Louisiana. This played a major role in temperatures this afternoon and will continue to play a major role in temperatures tonight. Initial thought is that we will see some additional cloud cover develop which could impact our lows just like last night. Secondly, there is some potential that some patchy dense fog could develop towards morning across the majority of the region, with the best chances across the central portion of our area from the Louisiana/Texas line in deep east Texas northward into southwest Arkansas. Regardless of how cool we get tonight, temperatures will rebound quickly by this afternoon as high temperatures return to the lower 50s across our northern zones to around 60 degrees across some of our far southern zones thanks to a transition to southerly winds ushering in these "warmer" conditions. By this evening, we will see an increase in moisture from the south, which will bring a return of showers to the area Wednesday night and continuing through Friday afternoon. One thing to note about the forecast for Wednesday night, there is some potential that there will be drizzle across some of our far northern zones, something I decided not to mention at this time because confidence is not super high, but worth a mention. Things begin to dry out across the region on Sunday, a trend that is expected to continue into the middle of next week. Something to keep an eye on with the longer term of the forecast, the Climate Prediction Center 6-10 day outlook indicates probabilities of near normal temperatures and what I think is more concerning, higher probabilities of below normal precipitation. Looking even further, the 8-14 day shows higher probabilities of above normal temperatures and continued below normal precipitation. So, while it might be a nuisance, enjoy the rain while we can. /33/ && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1220 AM CST Wed Dec 3 2025 For the 03/06z TAF period...VFR conditions at all sites, except KMLU, where low cigs remain. Low cigs will start to return westward overnight along with some fog development. This fog should lift by mid-morning and cigs will start to scatter out. However, low cigs and reduced flight categories will return tomorrow afternoon, with some light rain and drizzle to follow by the end of the TAF period. /20/ && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
