.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1040 AM CST Sat Nov 22 2025

Upper-level flow will stay relatively zonal ahead of the incoming
low pressure system expected Monday. But tonight and tomorrow will
stay dry with Sunday`s high in the upper 60s and low 70s. Mid-
level moisture will begin to return to the region on Sunday
night. Recent model guidance has shown a slightly slower
progression of the upper-level trough but initial short-range
model solutions have kept rain time of arrival at Monday morning
and lasting through the overnight hours. The main concern at this
time is the flash and urban flooding potential associated with the
rain. The hope is that the recent dryness has set soil up to
absorb much of the rainfall, but paved and low-lying areas will
need to be monitored for pooling water through Monday night. There
is also a risk of severe weather, but this is highly dependent on
co-occurring forcing and instability. Both hazards will be most
likely along and north of the I-30 corridor and will be a major
focus for future forecast packages.


Upon the cold front`s passage late on Tuesday, cooler air and
drier conditions will return to the Ark-La-Tx. Afternoon highs in
the 50s/60s will be the perfect fall conditions for the holiday
on Thursday. Overnight lows will be flirting with freezing for our
northwestern zones, but the worst of the cold will stay to our
north. A hint of the next round of rain looks to be coming late
this period thanks to a longwave trough.
