AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
1019 PM CST MON DEC 24 2012

.DISCUSSION.
CURRENT READINGS ARE COOLER THAN EXPECTED IN MANY LOCALES AND
WE HAVE UPDATED THE OVERNIGHT LOWS WHICH WILL LIKELY OCCUR IN THE
WEE HOURS. SOME ADDITIONAL DROP MAY OCCUR WITH ONSET OF PRECIP AS
SPREADS ARE QUITE LARGE AREA WIDE. PLENTY OF SHOWERS OVER THE GULF
AND WILL BE WORKING INLAND BY MIDNIGHT. ALSO...OVER RUNNING
DEVELOPMENT WILL BEGIN SOON...HAVE ADJUSTED POPS A BIT FOR THE
OVERNIGHT...TO OUR SW AS THE VORT OVER WEST TEXAS MOVES EASTWARD
OVERNIGHT. THE UPPER LOW HAS NOT BOTTOMED OUT AND CONTINUES
DIGGING AND HAS PROMPTED ADDITIONAL COUNTIES IN THE WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY FOR CHRISTMAS AFTERNOON AND EXPANDED THE WINTER STORM
WATCH A ROW FARTHER SOUTH IN ARKANSAS.

OF COURSE...NEW DATA IS ARRIVING ALL THE TIME NOW AND ADDITIONAL
CHANGES MAY OCCUR DURING THE OVERNIGHT AND ISSUED AS USUAL IN THE
4 AM PACKAGE. THE SEVERE THREAT WILL BEGIN PRIOR TO DAYBREAK SW AS
SOME HAILERS WITH A TORNADIC THREAT GENERALLY SOUTH OF I-20 ON
CHRISTMAS DAY...AS MID TO LATE MORNING HEATING OF THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE
OCCURS. THE CLOUDS WILL BE THICK...BUT THE SUN WILL STILL GET IN
BETWEEN. SPC/S OUTLOOKS REMAIN MUCH THE SAME WITH A SLIGHT IN EFFECT
FOR THE OVERNIGHT OVER OUR SW CORNER AND THEN DAY 2...A MODERATE
OVER OUR SE CORNER BY 12Z FOR THE NEXT 24 HRS. /24/

&&

.AVIATION...
MOSTLY VFR FLIGHT CATEGORIES WILL PREVAIL INTO THE HOURS JUST AFTER
MIDNIGHT BUT LATER DURING THE CHRISTMAS MORNING HOURS BETWEEN 25/08
UTC TO 25/12 UTC MVFR CEILINGS BEGIN DEVELOPING AND SPREADING OVER
THE AREA AND LOWER TO IFR CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES IN MIST/BR. RAIN AND
AND SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL BECOME WIDESPREAD AROUND AND AFTER
25/12 UTC. A SURFACE LOW WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE FOUR STATE REGION
DURING THE DAY WITH A WARM FRONT TO THE EAST AND COLD FRONT TO THE
SOUTHWEST. STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS WILL BE 15 TO 25 KNOTS AS PRESSURE
GRADIENT INCREASES FOR MUCH OF EAST TEXAS AND NORTHWEST AND NORTH
CENTRAL LOUISIANA AND SOUTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS. /06/

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 422 PM CST MON DEC 24 2012/

DISCUSSION...
LOTS TO TALK ABOUT THIS AFTERNOON. ALREADY BEGINNING TO SEE CIRRUS
THICKEN AND INCREASE FROM THE W ACROSS N TX/OK...AHEAD OF A WELL
DEFINE LONGWAVE TROUGH THAT IS CARVING THROUGH THE GREAT BASIN TO
NEAR THE FOUR CORNERS REGION. MEANWHILE...OUR SFC BNDRY HAS BECOME
NEARLY STATIONARY ALONG THE I-10 CORRIDOR OF SE TX/S LA...WHICH
MATCHES UP WELL WITH WHAT THE GFS HAS BEEN ADVERTISING THE LAST
COUPLE OF DAYS. THE WRF HAS TRENDED A LITTLE FARTHER S THAN
YESTERDAY WITH THE CENTER OF THE DEVELOPING CLOSED LOW CHRISTMAS
DAY AS IT TRACKS THROUGH THE TX PANHANDLE CHRISTMAS MORNING...AND
ALONG THE RED RIVER VALLEY OF SRN OK/N TX DURING THE DAY.
HOWEVER...THIS MODEL IS THE SLOWEST TODAY...WITH VERY GOOD
AGREEMENT AMONGST THE GFS/CANADIAN/ECMWF WITH THE CLOSED LOW
POSITION CENTERED NEAR TXK BY 00Z WEDNESDAY. THUS...HAVE BASED THE
FORECAST PACKAGE SIMILAR TO THE CON CENSUS HERE...WITH LARGE SCALE
FORCING QUICKLY INCREASING AFTER 06Z TONIGHT ACROSS CNTRL/ECNTRL
TX...WITH A 30-40KT SWRLY LLJ DEVELOPING ATOP THE SFC BNDRY TO OUR
S RESULTING IN RAPIDLY INCREASING ELEVATED CONVECTION WITHIN THE
LEFT EXIT REGION OF A 120KT JET. THE SHORT TERM PROGS MAINTAIN
STEEP 700-500MB LAPSE RATES NEAR AND N OF THE BNDRY ACROSS E TX/N
LA...SUCH THAT THERE COULD BE AN ISOLATED SVR THREAT OVER THESE
AREAS LATE...WITH HAIL BEING THE PRIMARY THREAT. HAVE INCREASED
POPS TO LIKELY/CATEGORICAL AREAWIDE AND MAINTAINED SVR MENTION
ACROSS DEEP E TX/SRN SECTIONS OF NCNTRL LA.

CONVECTION WILL BE WIDESPREAD BY 12Z CHRISTMAS DAY...WITH THE SVR
THREAT PERSISTING MAINLY ACROSS LOWER E TX/SRN SECTIONS OF NCNTRL
LA S OF I-20. AS THE COLD CORE SYSTEM BEGINS TO CLOSE OFF BY
MIDDAY TUESDAY...IT BEGINS TO TAKE ON A NEGATIVE TILT BY
AFTERNOON...WITH SFC CYCLOGENESIS RAPIDLY INCREASING ALONG THE
WARM FRONTAL BNDRY ACROSS NCNTRL LA DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING.
DEEP LAYER SHEAR VALUES INCREASE TO 55-65KTS NEAR THE WARM
SECTOR...ALTHOUGH SFC BASED INSTABILITY WILL MAY BE IN QUESTION
ACROSS OUR SRN ZONES AS RAIN COOLED AIR TO THE N OF THE WARM FRONT
MAY INHIBIT THE NWD PROGRESSION OF THE FRONT. SHOULD THIS
OCCUR...THIS WOULD MAINTAIN A LOW LEVEL INVERSION JUST OFF THE SFC
AND INHIBIT THE STRONGER WINDS ALOFT FROM REACHING THE
SFC...ALTHOUGH THE THREAT FOR ELEVATED HAILERS WILL STILL BE
POSSIBLE. HOWEVER...STEEP LAPSE RATES WITHIN A STRONGLY SHEARED
ENVIRONMENT WITHIN THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF THE PRIMARY UPPER JET
ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE LOW WILL INVIGORATE STRONG/SVR CONVECTION
WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR FROM LATE MORNING TO AT LEAST MID
AFTERNOON...WITH DAMAGING WINDS/LARGE HAIL/ISOLATED TORNADOES ALL
POSSIBLE. THE SVR THREAT SHOULD WIND DOWN BY 00Z
WEDNESDAY...ALTHOUGH OUR FOCUS WILL TURN TO OUR NW LATE CHRISTMAS
AFTERNOON/EVENING AS THE COLDER SUBFREEZING AIR DEEPENS OVER
EXTREME NE TX/SE OK/SW AR.

GIVEN THE GOOD CONSENSUS WITH THE CLOSED LOW POSITION NEAR TXK BY
00Z WEDNESDAY...THE INITIALLY SHALLOW SUBFREEZING AIR MASS OVER SE
OK WILL RAPIDLY DEEPEN...WITH 850MB TEMPS FALLING SOME 6-8C
BETWEEN 18Z TUESDAY AND 00Z WEDNESDAY AS IT BEGINS TO SURGE SE
WITH THE NE EJECTION OF THE SFC LOW OVER NCNTRL LA. THUS...THE
CHANGEOVER FROM RAIN TO SNOW SHOULD BE QUICK TO OCCUR...AS
WRAP-AROUND SNOW ON THE W SIDE OF THE 700MB LOW SHIFTS E ACROSS SE
OK/SW AR. SINCE CONFIDENCE HAS INCREASED IN THE TRACK OF THE
CLOSED LOW...ALBEIT A BIT SLOWER...HAVE ISSUED A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY FOR MCCURTAIN COUNTY AS WELL AS LITTLE RIVER/SEVIER/HOWARD
COUNTIES FOR 21Z-06Z AS THE PRECIP BEGINS TO CHANGE OVER. WILL
ALLOW THE WINTER STORM WATCH TO REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR
HEMPSTEAD/NEVADA COUNTIES TUESDAY EVENING...WITH THE WATCH PUSHED
BACK A FEW HOURS GIVEN THE SLOWER PROGRESSION OF THE SUBFREEZING
TEMPS.

AT THIS TIME...CURRENT SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD RANGE FROM
1-3 INCHES OVER MCCURTAIN COUNTY AS WELL AS AREAS NW OF AN
ASHDOWN...TO NASHVILLE AR LINE. DRY SLOTTING S OF THE CLOSED LOW
WILL QUICKLY TAPER ANY SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS FARTHER S OF THE RED
RIVER INTO NE TX...AS WELL AS THE I-30 CORRIDOR OF SW AR. SHOULD
THE TRACK OF THE LOW BE A LITTLE FARTHER S THAN CURRENTLY
PROGGED...SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS WILL INCREASE FARTHER S ACROSS NE
TX/SE OK/SW AR. THIS WOULD LIKELY RESULT IN A WINTER STORM WARNING
BEING NEEDED FOR SE OK/POSSIBLY ADJACENT SECTIONS OF SW AR.
SNOWFALL RATES SHOULD DIMINISH AFTER 06Z WEDNESDAY AS THE CLOSED
LOW EJECTS NE INTO THE MID-SOUTH...WITH GRADUAL CLEARING EXPECTED
WEDNESDAY MORNING. WITH THE DEEPENING SFC LOW OVER NCNTRL LA LATE
CHRISTMAS AFTERNOON...THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN AS
WELL...RESULTING IN GUSTY NW WINDS WITH THE STRONG COLD ADVECTION.
THESE GUSTY WINDS MAY CONRIBUTE TO SPORATIC POWER OUTAGES GIVEN
THE WEAK LIMBS AFTER LAST WEEK/S WINDSTORM...IN ADDITION TO ANY
SNOW THAT ACCUMULATES ON THE ELEVATED SURFACES.

THE SNOWPACK TO OUR NW WILL RESULT IN MUCH BELOW NORMAL TEMPS
WEDNESDAY...BEFORE A GRADUAL WARMING TREND COMMENCES BY THURSDAY
ONCE THE CANADIAN SFC RIDGE SHIFTS E OF THE REGION. A SWRLY LOW
LEVEL RETURN FLOW COMMENCES THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND FRIDAY...AHEAD
OF THE NEXT SHORTWAVE THAT WILL CARVE INTO THE SRN PLAINS LATE
FRIDAY. WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE POPS AREAWIDE FRIDAY/FRIDAY
EVENING...ALTHOUGH THE PROGS HAVE SLOWED THIS SYSTEM DOWN A TAD
TODAY.

LITTLE CHANGES MADE TO THE REMAINDER OF THE GRIDS GIVEN THE
CHRISTMAS DAY STORM.

PRELIMS TO FOLLOW BELOW...

AVIATION...
DRIER AIR WILL PROVIDE VFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS ACROSS THE FOUR STATE
THROUGHOUT THE EVENING HOURS. AFTER 06Z...CIGS WILL BEGIN TO LOWER
ALONG WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED CONVECTION. CONVECTION WILL
BECOME WIDESPREAD AFTER 09Z...WITH MOST OF THE AREA BECOMING MVFR BY
12Z ALONG WITH AREAS OF IFR DUE TO RAIN...FOG AND LOW CIGS.
TURBULENCE WILL BE MODERATE TO SEVERE...ESPECIALLY ABOVE 5 KFT AND
SOUTH OF A ELD...TYR LINE DUE TO EMBEDDED TSTMS. THESE CONDITIONS TO
CONTINUE UNTIL 18Z TUESDAY.  AFTER 18Z A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO
EAST TEXAS AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA WITH CONDITIONS TEMPORARILY
IMPROVING TO VFR FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS EAST TEXAS. CIGS AND VSBYS
WILL LOWER TO IFR BEHIND THE FRONT IN SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA DUE TO SNOW
AND FOG AFTER 21Z. THESE LOWER CONDITIONS WILL SPREAD SOUTH INTO
ADJACENT NORTHEAST TEXAS BY 26/00Z AND INTO SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS AFTER
26/00Z.  /14/
