.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...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 534 AM CST Wed Dec 3 2025

For the 03/12Z TAFs, OVC cloud decks are expanding over much of
area airspace, dropping to MVFR and IFR conditions in recent
hours. Associated VSBY drops will also be possible with fog
development near and shortly after sunrise. Conditions may improve
slightly towards midday, but this afternoon will see further
increases in sky coverage ahead of incoming rainfall, with impacts
expected to arrive from the southwest in east Texas after sunset
tonight, spreading north and east overnight. Southeast winds will
continue at maximum sustained speeds of 5 to 10 kts, becoming
light and variable overnight before adopting a northeasterly
orientation by the end of this forecast period.
