.DISCUSSION...

Well as expected our weak cold front did move over S AR and actually
in N LA in the backdoor to near Shreveport and Bossier City,
Ruston and Bastrop with light E/NE wind. This really helped to
keep the clouds locked in over the boundary with a high on Sunday
of only 80 in Shreveport compared to a record tie of 85 on
Saturday. This front is lifting slowly back north early on Monday
with a few showers and maybe even a thunderstorm or two along and
north of I-30 around daybreak. Otherwise, skies will be cloudy
areawide with some patchy and dense fog confined to our southern
zones and districts. Say from Jacksonville to Center, across
Toledo Bend into Natchitoches and Jena. The clouds and fog will
lift out well by lunchtime with more sunshine and warmer temps
again for the next few afternoons. We are still looking forward
to a wet end to the week with some heavy convection ahead of a
Pacific cold front. Until then, S/SW winds will rules the days and
shift to north again by daybreak on Saturday with showers and
thunderstorms lingering over the weekend along and south of I-20.
Farther north will be partly cloudy, but temps everywhere will
drop back to seasonal.
