279 FXUS64 KSHV 100555 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1255 AM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1205 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025 - The arrival of the post-frontal airmass will continue into this evening as dry conditions prevail and cooler overnight lows emerge. - Relatively mild temperatures will be in the forecast to end the week and start the weekend. - Temperatures will rebound through the back half of the weekend and into next week as we near the low 90`s again. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1205 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025 GOES satellite this afternoon depicts a dramatic difference across the FA when compared to this time yesterday as we have replaced a mix of cumulus for clear skies. At the same time, temperatures are running a few degrees cooler when compared to just 24 hours ago, with a similar appearance in the regional dew points. All of this is the result of the slow arrival of a post- frontal airmass filtering into the region, while a digging trough across the SE CONUS helps advect a robust layer of dry air from the north/northeast. This can be seen in the 700-300MB RH output from the recent deterministic guidance. The result, a notable drop in dew point temperatures through the next 24 hours, allowing for afternoon highs in the mid to upper 80`s to feel comfortable on Friday. This early Fall treat appears to be short lived as ridging across west Texas slides eastward through the weekend. Locally, temperatures will begin to climb with highs near 90, potentially even a degree or two above, as early as Monday. By Tuesday, the center of the ridge will be just off to the SW, lingering across the mid-TX coastline, though it`s influence will still be enough to bump temperatures up once again so that highs at or just above 90 deg F are borderline areawide. Moisture rounding the western and northern edges of the upper-level ridge will be close to our northern zones, but confidence in measurable rainfall in the next 7 days continues to be low. 53 && .AVIATION...
