Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
342 PM CDT THU JUL 14 2016

.DISCUSSION...
For the most part, today has been another carbon copy of heat and
humidity, with heat indices just flirting with the 105 degree heat
index threshold for heat advisory. However, subtle changes in
position of upper ridge has allowed for a nw flow aloft pattern to
infringe upon northern portions of the area...further cooling of mid
lvl temps. A decayed nocturnal mcs has redeveloped over OK and
movg sewd into area packing a big punch with widespread winds of
40 or more mph...and intense lgt strikes. Svr tstm watch issued
for se OK/sw AR/and extreme ne corner of TX...until 9 pm. have
upped pops to high end chance across northern portions of area,
and expanded slgt chc to cover remainder of LA/TX and to include
the entire overnight hours. NW flow to continue Friday, and
gradually weakening over the wknd as the upper ridge expands once
again as it begins to move into the central plains. Will see sct
convection for much of the area on Friday, with coverage becmg
questionable Saturday and finally minimal coverage of any
convection by Sunday. Of course, with nw flow cannot assume that
all convection will be diurnal. By early next week will see temps
climb back into upper 90s and possibly near 100 with a more
easterly flow locking in higher dewpoints, and any possible
convection limited to more sea breeze type, as the upper ridge
moves to a more northerly position, relative to our area. With
that said, heat advisories may possibly be needed next week./VII/.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 104 PM CDT THU JUL 14 2016/

AVIATION...
Mostly VFR conditions will continue through much of the 14/18Z TAF
period. A sct cu field has developed over E TX/N LA early this
afternoon...with SW AR expected to fill in by mid-afternoon. A
stationary outflow bndry from morning convection over Cntrl AR
is now focusing some cu towers just SW of HOT...to a LLQ and GLH
line...with sct convection possibly developing by mid to late
afternoon along it...shifting SSE late in the day. Any convection
that develops along this bndry may near the ELD terminal by
00Z...but confidence remains too low to mention in the TAF attm.
A larger cluster of convection has developed over Cntrl/NE OK
early this afternoon...which should shift ESE into Wrn and Cntrl
AR between 20-24Z. This convection may build farther Swd into
extreme SE OK/SW AR by 00Z...and could affect the TXK/ELD
terminals between 00-04Z. Will continue to monitor the current
radar trends with amendments possible as confidence increases
later today. Locally gusty winds...reduced vsbys...and MVFR cigs
would be possible in/near the convection before it diminishes by
late evening. Considerable convective debris should linger
overnight/Friday morning...with additional sct -SHRA
redevelopment possible over SW AR...with the higher confidence
affecting the ELD terminal. Low MVFR cigs should develop between
09-12Z over the WSW portions of E TX...affecting the TYR/GGG/LFK
terminals through mid-morning before scattering out. SSW winds
8-12kts this afternoon will diminish to 4-7kts after 00Z. /15/
