The local office's own words before this special weather statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Shreveport, LA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this special weather statement went out at May 11, 12:22 AM CDT, 35 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 11, 12:22 AM CDT, 35 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1222 AM CDT Tue May 11 2021 .AVIATION... A mix of ceilings currently with everything from VFR to LIFR, depending on if you are in or out of convection currently. Convection is currently confined to our I-20 terminal locations or terminals north of the corridor and that should remain the case through the predawn hours. However as we transition to the late morning hours and especially the afternoon and overnight hours, convection is expected to become widespread. Therefore, began the 06z taf package with VCTS across most terminals with TEMPO groups for reductions in VSBY along with ceilings and stronger wind gusts. Prevailed TSRA for most terminal locations beginning mid to late morning today, continuing those conditions through the afternoon and evening hours with prevailing IFR or LIFR ceilings during this timeframe as well. 13 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 1011 PM CDT Mon May 10 2021/ UPDATE.../Tonight/ Convective evolution continues to be tricky to forecast, and hi- res rapid update models haven't been much help this evening. The latest HRRR does seem to be initializing better this run, and the 12Z Euro is not too far off on placement of QPF thus far. If these models have any handle on what will happen during the overnight, convection should stay mostly confined to our nern half, generally from around Tyler to Shreveport to Jena and points newd. have increased PoPs across these areas for the overnight pd. Otherwise, have made some minor tweaks to temps based on current obs, which were running a few degrees cooler than previously fcst for the central portions of the region. Otherwise, fcst is reasonably on track this evening. /12/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
