447 AM CST Sat Jan 11 2020

.SHORT TERM.../Today through Sunday/

Big changes continue as the cold front has arrived in much of NE
TX. Low to mid 40s separate mid 50s and low 60s ahead of the
front with wind gusts now in the teens from the NW and guidance is
showing some more increase in speeds as the upper trough moves
overhead. A new lake wind advisory has been posted for TX/LA for
the day ahead.

The heavy rains continue to ease out of our cwa with the squall
line stretching from Alexandria to Monroe. We have just a few
parishes that remain in the overnight Tornado watch. We will
likely be updating to remove before the expiration. We have a big
day ahead clearing and cleaning much storm debris in the wake of
this powerful system. And Winter is fast returning with even the
chance for a bit more thunder and change over to snow in SE OK.
Perhaps into parts of Texas too, but no impacts as ground temps
have warmed considerably with widespread 70s yesterday.

Clouds and any further precipitation, mostly rain, will be ending
late this morning and early afternoon. Skies will be clearing mid
afternoon in the Texas and areawide this very early evening. A
1024mb surface high will be over us by midnight with light winds
becoming calm allowing widespread frost to form with temps in the
20s and lower 30s areawide. The southerly winds that follow will
begin a warming trend that will last into next week. However, our
highs on Sunday will remain seasonal or just below for mid
January. /24/

.LONG TERM.../Sunday Night through Friday/

The cold front moving through the region today will be gradually
returning back north into the area Sunday night through Monday as
perturbed southwest flow aloft sets up over the area again. Expect
the deep baroclinic zone associated with the front to foster
increasing moisture convergence and an eventual decent coverage of
showers by later Monday into Monday night. Relatively steep lapse
rates aloft and building moisture in the atmospheric lower levels
will allow for at least embedded thunderstorms and some of these
storms may be able to produce some hail as we head into Monday
night. Fortunately, instability during this time frame should be
mainly elevated above the surface and thus the risk for damaging
winds and tornadoes should be quite low. At least some potential for
showers and embedded thunderstorms will remain around in on and off
fashion through the bulk of next work week as the passing minor
disturbances in the southwest flow aloft cause the previously
mentioned baroclinic to meander back and forth (north and south)
across the Four State region. Temperatures through the time frame
will generally be above normal, especially in the southern half of
the forecast area, at least until Wednesday night or Thursday when
model consensus is good that a stronger cool push will try to drive
the surface cold front back to the south.

Aside from the risk of some marginally severe thunderstorms (mainly
due to a hail threat) through the early to middle part of the work
week, the only other threat that may materialize could be heavy
rain. This will particularly be the case Monday night into Tuesday
when models are trying to show a more solid convective signal that
could put heavy downpours on ground that is at least partially
saturated by precipitation over the past 24 hours. /50/

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 1137 PM CST Fri Jan 10 2020/

AVIATION...
A convective line along a frontal boundary will move across the
region overnight with TSRA conditions expected from 11/06Z to
11/12Z. South winds 15 to 20 knots with higher gusts to become
southwest to west overnight behind the front. Expect stronger
winds in and around convection. Showers and thunderstorms to
diminish from the west with all areas clearing by 11/12Z. MVFR
ceilings forecast to linger through much of the day across most
TAF sites. Otherwise, northwest winds to increase to near 20 knots
