.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 404 AM CDT MON OCT 6 2014/

DISCUSSION...
CURRENT SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS EASTWARD RETREATING SFC HIGH OVER THE E
COAST WHICH WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR A GORGEOUS AND COOL WEEKEND. THIS
COUPLED WITH DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE OVER NW TX/OK IS PROVIDING A
PREDOMINATE S FLOW OVER THE REGION...WITH A FEW LOW LEVEL CLOUDS
BEGINNING TO MOVE ACROSS SE TX/SW LA.

A DISTURBANCE WITHIN THE MAINLY PREDOMINATE NW FLOW ALOFT IS
PROVIDING ENOUGH MOISTURE/LIFT FOR SCT/NUM SHRA ACROSS SE OK/AR
THIS MORNING. WHILE THIS FEATURE IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT MOVE
SE...WE WILL SEE INCREASED LOW/MID LEVEL MOISTURE AND ENOUGH LIFT
LATER THIS MORNING AND THIS AFTERNOON TO PROVIDE ISO/SCT SHRA/TSRA.
KEPT CHANCES MAINLY IN THE 20-30% RANGE. SPC HAS AREAS OF C AND N
LA IN SLIGHT RISK...AND BARELY INCLUDES RAPIDES/AVOYELLES PARISHES
FOR THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECT AN CONTINUED WARMING TREND...WITH
AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE MID 80S.

THE DOMINATE TROF OVER C AND E NORTH AMERICA WILL SLOWLY LIFT THIS
WEEK...WITH RIDGING ALOFT BUILDING OVER THE GULF BY MIDWEEK. THIS
WILL GIVE OUR REGION A RETURN TO LATE SUMMER CONDITIONS...WITH
LOWS IN THE LOWER 70S...AND HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90 FOR
TUE & WED. RAIN CHANCES AT BEST 20% EXPECTED BY WED AFTERNOON
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. AS THE RIDGE BREAKS DOWN BY THE
WEEKEND...MAY SEE AN INCREASE CHANCE FOR SHRA/TSRA FOR FURTHER
INLAND AREAS OF SE TX/C LA BY THE WEEKEND.

DML

MARINE...
MAINLY S WINDS 10-15 KTS & SEAS 2-3 FT EXPECTED TODAY AND THE
BETTER PART OF THIS WORKWEEK. THE UPPER DISTURBANCE EXPECTED TO
BRING A CHANCE OF SHRA/TSRA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING.
