Area forecast discussion, Jun 16, 3:29 PM CDT, 2 hours 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 329 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2019 .SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Monday night/ Short range guidance has struggled to keep up with the convection that is ongoing. Have decided to go with the GFS, at least for the next 12 to 24 hours, since it has a better handle with the MCS that has moved through and the convection that is currently over North Texas. Thus, precipitation chances range from chance to likely over that timeframe. Precipitable water on this morning's sounding was 1.60 inches for today. This coupled with nearly unidirectional flow is making these storms efficient rain producers for this time of year. While there is an isolated chance for severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening, the greatest threat in the short term will be heavy rainfall with isolated flash flooding possible through Monday afternoon. By Monday evening, precipitation chances should be on the decline as the weak upper level trough shifts east of the area. Have kept max temperatures tomorrow below normal with the amount of cloud cover and rain expected while low temperatures in both periods should be near normal. /35/ .LONG TERM.../Tuesday through Sunday/ Continued stg instability but with greater uncertainty of moisture and shear resulting in uncertain tstm potential Tuesday and Wednesday, although low lvl winds begin to switch from the west back to the south durg the day Tuesday. Will keep pops mainly low end chance category under these circumstances with temps warming back to either side of 90 degrees. ECMWF is most evident with showing convection erupting over nw portions of cwa. The next shortwave develops within the flow over OK into the Middle Red River Valley Wednesday evening. Reasonable agreement exists this morning between the GFS and ECMWF with a 30-40+ kt SWrly LLJ feeding into this next shortwave trough Wednesday night, with large scale forcing resulting in another potential MCS over SE OK/SW AR. Will increase pops to high end chance wed night into thur with adequate moisture and cooling mid lvls with extreme instability with wed night mcs possibly developing in close proximity to cwa. Ridging aloft will build N from Cntrl TX towards the area into the wknd with isold pops and even warmer temps into lower to middle 90s expected. /07/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

A line of strong thunderstorms with very heavy rainfall are moving across the East Texas Lakes and Toledo Bend area, and into North Central Louisiana. Strong gusty winds and minor flooding may occur before these storms exit the region by mid afternoon. However, additional showers and thunderstorms are expected to redevelop by late afternoon through this evening over portions of North Texas and Southern Oklahoma, which should gradually progress east southeast into Southeast Oklahoma, Northeast Texas, and adjacent sections of Southwest Arkansas later tonight. There will be the potential for at least isolated severe thunderstorms with damaging winds to develop over these areas tonight, with the threat for locally heavy rainfall and localized flash flooding. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday... Showers and thunderstorms will increase once again across the region Monday, as an upper level trough slowly progresses east across the area. An isolated severe thunderstorm threat can not be ruled out Monday, with damaging winds and locally heavy rainfall possible. Localized flash flooding will be possible as well where storms producing heavy rainfall continue to move repeatedly over the same areas. While these showers and thunderstorms should diminish Monday night, additional scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible across the region Tuesday and Wednesday, with some of the stronger storms producing locally gusty winds and brief heavy rainfall. The approach of another upper level disturbance over Oklahoma and the Red River Valley late Wednesday will result in scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms over portions of extreme Northeast Texas, Southeast Oklahoma, Southwest Arkansas, and portions of the I-20 corridor of North Louisiana Wednesday night and Thursday morning, before diminishing from west to east Thursday afternoon. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Activation of emergency managers, spotter networks, and amateur radio operators, may be needed later today through tonight across the region. 07
