Area forecast discussion, Nov 29, 6:55 AM CST, 3 hours 18 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 655 AM CST Tue Nov 29 2016 .AVIATION... For the 29/12Z TAFs, patchy fog is creating some low vsbys at a few sites this morning with MLU being the primary culprit. LFK will also experience some fog and low cigs as they continue to advect northward this morning. Expect improvement to occur later this morning, but MVFR cigs may still linger over LFK/MLU through early afternoon. These sites are also the most likely to see some convection later this afternoon as another short wave transitions across the region. Cannot rule out convection at ELD/SHV as well, but the remaining sites should remain dry as a cold front arrives later this evening into the overnight hours. South winds will veer throughout the day as the front approaches before shifting to the W/NW around fropa. 19 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 425 AM CST Tue Nov 29 2016/ DISCUSSION... The dryline that ushered in active weather yesterday has stalled and will washout later today. The upper level low to the west will push a cold front through later today with a warm front moving northeast ahead of the front. Expect an increase in clouds today which will keep temperatures in the 70s and dewpoints in the upper 40s to lower 50s. The low level moisture along with warmer temperatures could allow east texas and central Louisiana areas to see severe weather later today, mainly hail and wind. The cold front will move out early Wednesday morning with cool drier air behind the front with surface high pressure providing subsidence and cooler conditions during the early morning and overnight hours. We will provide graphics about the severe weather this morning showing the areas in the slight risk. The next weather maker will be another trough of low pressure out of the Pacific northwest that will move into southwestern US. The GFS and Euro show the trough moving into the area on Saturday with overrunning ahead of the front. The difference in the models are in the timing of the rain ending the EURO moves the rain out early monday while the GFS keeps the overrunning conditions into Tuesday and early Wednesday. 21 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
