Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
306 AM CDT Fri Jun 23 2017

.DISCUSSION...
Surface remnants of Cindy are currently spinning across Central
Arkansas attm with this feature expected to continue moving
quickly to the north and east this morning. However, looking
aloft, there will continue to be a weakness in the mid levels of
the atmosphere in the form of a shear axis across Central
Louisiana into South Central/Southeast Arkansas today. Combine
this with tropical moisture left behind from Cindy and that will
be an area for scattered shower and thunderstorm activity
continuing today. Our eastern most zones is an area that can take
additional rainfall today with the heavier rates expected this
morning so for this reason, have decided to cancel the remaining
Flash Flood Watch across our portion of Northern Louisiana and
Union County Arkansas.

Looking upstream, a trough of low pressure across the Northern and
Central Plains will have a cold front associated with it that will
be moving into the Middle Red River Valley of Southeast Oklahoma,
Southwest Arkansas and Northeast Texas this evening with
additional scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms
expected to develop along this feature. The convection should
continue increasing in coverage as the front pushes south towards
the I-20 Corridor overnight tonight as well. Kept pops on the high
side at least through Saturday morning across all but our
northern third as the front will be slow pushing through the I-20
Corridor during day but should see a drying trend from north to
south across our region by Sat Aftn. The front should push
completely through our region by Sat Evng but the 850mb boundary
and thus the drier post frontal airmass will not get a good push
through our region until late Sat Night/Sun timeframe so have
kept slight chance/chance pops going for the corridor and south
for these periods as well. The post frontal airmass will tend to
keep temperatures down for late June across the region with lows
in the 60s and highs in the mid to upper 80s through at least Tue
of next week which could be a lot worse this time of the year
before we begin to see returning southerly flow by the middle and
later half of the upcoming work week.

Upper ridging begins to break down by the middle of next week
across the southwest CONUS with near zonal flow expected across
much of the Southern Plains thereafter. With the expected low
level moisture return, we should return to more typical daytime
driven afternoon showers and thunderstorms towards the end of the
week as well along with near normal temperatures.

Prelims to follow...13.

Arkansas, southwest Arkansas, north central Louisiana, northwest
Louisiana, southeast Oklahoma, east Texas and northeast Texas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight...

With the remnants of Tropical Storm Cindy having moved well north
and east of our region today, much of the rainfall associated with
Cindy will move north and east with her. Scattered to numerous
showers and a few thunderstorms will be possible this morning
across portions of Northern Louisiana and South Central Arkansas
before we see less storm coverage this afternoon. This will be
temporary however as a cold front will begin moving into the
Middle Red River Valley of Northeast Texas, Southeast Oklahoma and
Southwest Arkansas. Along with this frontal boundary will be
scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms and this activity
will build southward towards the Interstate 20 Corridor of
Northeast Texas and Northern Louisiana late tonight. Some of these
storms could be strong in intensity overnight as well.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday...

Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms in association
with a cold front will effect most of the Four State Region during
the day Saturday before the activity tries to push southward and
taper off Saturday Night into Sunday along with the cold front.
Small chances for showers and thunderstorms will remain in the
forecast through early Monday mainly along and south of the I-20
Corridor as well. Otherwise, we should see a drying trend through
the early part of next week with small rain chances returning once
again by the end of the upcoming work week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Activation of emergency management personnel...amateur radio
operators...and storm spotters will not be needed through tonight.
