   entire Four State Region but temperatures across our southeast

 - Next storm system poised to begin impacting our region late
   Sunday Night but especially Monday through Tuesday bringing
   with it at least the potential for heavy rainfall and severe
   storms.

.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.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 538 PM CST Sat Nov 22 2025

All TAFs are VFR currently, although MVFR cigs with bases from 2
to 3k feet AGL are oozing into SE OK and portions of SW AR and
will likely impact TXK and ELD TAFs later on this evening or
overnight in at least temporary fashion. Some visibility
reductions are possible, although any dense fog should be very
isolated and is not represented in any TAFs through tomorrow
morning. Farther south into the I-20 corridor, there is more
confidence in patchy IFR ceilings and maybe some visibility
reductions in TYR, GGG, SHV, and MLU from approximately 5 AM
through 9 AM. This was represented in most of these TAFs to one
degree or another. Above the low stuff, expect increasing cirrus
from 20 to 25k feet. Sub VFR conditions could linger a while into
tomorrow morning at ELD, but confidence is decent that VFR
conditions will prevail in all areas by noon. Otherwise, current
light winds from the northwest at around 10 mph will become light
this evening and gradually veer to the northeast and east by
tomorrow morning. This winds will eventually start veering to the
southeast tomorrow night in advance of an approaching storm system
that will bring rain, storms, and bad flying conditions to the
area Monday and Monday night. /50/
