Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
939 AM CDT Tue Jun 8 2021
.UPDATE...
Sent a quick update to beef up pops areawide and based on high res
progs which suggest the intense line of convection just now
entering NE TX will move from west to east through our region
today. Also considerable flooding is ongoing across McCurtain
County, Oklahoma attm promoting the necessity of a Flash Flood
Emergency needing to be issued.
Lowered temperatures about a category as well given the abundant
blowoff from the convection to our west even through we should see
some recovery out west by late this afternoon.
Did not make any changes to the present Flash Flood Watch.
Update already sent...13.

Convection to diminish across the srn half of the region with the
