Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
1008 PM CDT Sun Oct 20 2019

.UPDATE...
Supercells have diminished in intensity across the CWA for now.
However, intense convection over the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex
along a dry line will continue eastwards towards our area over the
next several hours. The environment continues to be very
conducive for tornadic activity over East Texas. Mesoanalysis
indicates CAPE values well over 1000 J/kg are in place across the
eastern half of the area. In addition, vertical shear profiles,
especially shear in the 0-1 km has increased over East Texas in
the last couple of hours as the surface low over Oklahoma moves
east. 0-1 km SRH values have increased to over 400 m2/s2. No
modifications are currently planned to Tornado Watch 676.

Farther to the northwest, the much anticipated QLCS is quickly
developing over Central Oklahoma and Western North Texas. The
QLCS will likely bring more severe weather during the early
morning hours.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 758 PM CDT Sun Oct 20 2019/

UPDATE...
See below for 21/00z Aviation Discussion.

An isolated supercell has developed over East Texas in an area of
0-1 km SRH of about 200 m2/s2. Latest mesoanalysis combined with
the 00z SHV raob indicates the low-level shear decreases somewhat
with eastward extent. However, a tornado threat will likely
persist with this storm. Additional convection is likely,
especially after midnight, as the much-advertised QLCS develops
over Oklahoma and Texas.

Text products have been updated to reflect the issuance of Tornado
Watch 676 through 07z and for an update to PoP grids through 03z
based on latest radar trends.

CN

AVIATION...
For the 21/00z TAFs, isolated strong to severe convection will
continue along the Interstate 20 corridor of Louisiana and East
Texas early in the period, but this activity should diminish by
21/06z. A line of strong to severe thunderstorms should begin
moving from northwest to southeast across the area just after
21/06z ahead of a cold front. All TAF sites will be affected by
the line of storms. By 21/12z, the leading edge of the storms
should be near a line from KELD, to KSHV, to near KLFK. Variable
visibilities and ceilings will likely lead to a mix of flight
conditions between MVFR and LIFR while the storms are ongoing.
Behind the storms, skies should rapidly clear as northwesterly
winds usher considerable drier air into the region. VFR conditions
should return to all TAF sites by the end of the period.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 406 PM CDT Sun Oct 20 2019/

SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Monday Night/

Despite an abundance of low clouds and patchy fog this morning,
temperatures have climbed well into the 80s this afternoon. Some
areas along and south of I-20 have even managed the upper 80s for
highs as a warm front has shifted north today. In addition, dew
points have also surged into the lower 70s across much of these
same areas. This is all occurring ahead of a cold front which is
primed to move into our NW zones around midnight and quickly shift
SE across the region overnight through Monday morning, setting the
stage for a potential severe weather event across our entire
four-state region. Although low-level instability may initially
decrease slightly after sunset, expect it to increase once again
with the approaching cold front as MUCAPE values spike toward the
2000-2500 J/kg range overnight and perhaps a bit higher in some
locations. Add in the increasing low-level jet in the range of
50-60 kts and veering wind profiles with increasing wind shear, a
very robust line of convection will develop and spread SE toward
the I-30 corridor where an Enhanced Risk of severe weather is
noted in the SPC Day 1 Outlook. This line will continue on to the
SE across the remainder of the region with a primary damaging wind
threat coupled with the lower threats of large hail and isolated
tornadoes, which would likely be embedded within the evolving
QLCS. Rainfall amounts will average near an inch across the region
with isolated higher amounts possible over the next 24 hours.

The line of convection should exit the region by early to mid
afternoon on Monday with cooler and drier spilling south across
the region. Highs on Monday afternoon will range through the 70s
while overnight lows will fall into the 40s to near 50 degrees in
wake of the cold front on Monday night under clear skies and light
NW winds.

/19/

LONG TERM.../Tuesday through Sunday Night/

A departing trough of low pressure extending from the Great Lakes
into the Lower Miss Valley on Tuesday will result in milder
temperatures and drier conditions through at least Wednesday. By
Thursday, the westerlies will remain rather active as yet another
trough of low pressure moves out of the Intermountain West and into
the Great Plains. Low level moisture should increase quickly Wed
Night into Thu with perhaps some diurnally driven isolated to
scattered convection possible across our western half on Thursday
and then chance pops areawide Thu Night into Friday.

There continues to be considerable discrepancies concerning how this
late week trough will evolve with the ECMWF/Canadian solutions
suggesting the base of the trough will cut itself off from the
westerlies on Friday in the lee of the Southern Rockies while the
more progressive GFS suggests the trough will be much more open and
quickly brings an end to the rainfall across our area on Friday. The
differing solutions remain dug-in in regards to the above features
so tried to blend the varying solutions which would result in rain
chances lingering at least into the first half of Saturday.
Regardless, look for much cooler conditions with a frontal passage
sometime late Thursday or Friday with a cool upcoming and possible
wet first half of next weekend.
