Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1248 PM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 ...New DISCUSSION, SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1248 PM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 - Severe thunderstorms remain possible this afternoon and evening mainly along and south of the I-20 corridor of East Texas and North Louisiana. A localized flood threat will persist as well for this area as well as extreme Northeast Texas, Southeast Oklahoma, and Southwest Arkansas. - Cooler and drier conditions will return to the region late tonight through Tuesday, with a stronger reinforcement of colder/drier air spilling southeast Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1248 PM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 Busy morning as organized convection has spread farther E than what the short term progs have indicated this morning, which may work in our favor and inhibit as much of a northward shift of the warm front into the region this afternoon. The leading edge of the convection has weakened considerably over SCntrl AR and extreme NW LA, but has reinforced the cooler air along and just S of the I-20 corridor of E TX/N LA. However, am currently watching the deepening convection development ongoing over SE TX WNW of HOU near and S of a warm front, which extends from just N of ATT, to just N of UTS, to JAS and along the Lower Sabine Valley of SW LA. The short term progs remain in general agreement with additional PVA spreading NE ahead of the primary upper trough currently tracking through W TX, which should help maintain the cooler air in VC of I-20 even as the warm front continues to lift N through the afternoon/early evening. Thus, the greater instability axis will spread N into Lower E TX/N LA S of the front, with more than adequate bulk shear of 50-60 kts enhancing the development of deeper, more organized and potentially severe convection by mid and late afternoon once large scale forcing increases ahead of the approaching trough. In fact, some backing of the low level winds should help to increase low level shear as weak low pressure waves try to develop along the warm front, which would enhance the potential for isolated tornadic development. After coordination with SPC, have issued a Tornado Watch in effect until 01Z this evening for Lower E TX and far Wrn LA. Have had to make some considerable adjustments to max temps this afternoon especially for areas N of the warm front, mainly to lower them as much as some 5-8+ degrees. Have also increased pops a bit based on the current obs, with categorical/likely pops continuing for much of the region this evening before the trough allows for a sfc dry line to mix E into the area late this evening through the overnight hours. But before the dry line arrival, cell training in VC of the warm front may result in a narrow band of higher QPF of 2-4+ inches from portions of extreme Ern TX into NW LA/possibly far Srn AR, which may result in a localized flood threat over these area through this evening. Will allow the current Flood Watch to ride as is for areas along/N of the I-30 corridor, as sfc gauges from Red River County TX into McCurtain County OK and Sevier/Howard Counties in SW AR have recorded 1-2+ inch totals, with additional rainfall expected over nearly saturated grounds from previous rainfall late last week. The short term progs continue to suggest that the trough axis will exit the region to the ENE shortly after 06Z, thus quickly diminishing the convection from W to E with its departure. While the progs also hint at some wrap-around stratocu spilling S in wake of this trough Tuesday, enough clearing may exist late tonight through mid-morning for patchy FG development. Above normal temps will return to much of the region Tuesday, before a second but stronger cold front shifts SE through the area late Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, returning more seasonal conditions back in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. Depending on the extent of cirrus rounding the base of the attendant longwave trough Wednesday night as sfc ridging continues to build into the region, freezing temps are possible Thursday morning across SE OK/SW AR before spreading farther SE into the Lower MS Valley Thursday night. The dry NW flow aloft in wake of the longwave trough passage will begin to flatten by the start of the holiday weekend with the approach of additional shortwave energy entering the region, with rapidly returning low level moisture along a SSWrly LLJ contributing to an increase in convection development Saturday, becoming further enhanced by Sunday as additional energy develops in the SW flow aloft and overspreads the area. Attm, instability return looks meager for the weekend systems, but additional much needed rainfall is expected to provide some relief to the ongoing drought conditions. 15 && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1248 PM CST Mon Nov 24 2025 For the 24/18z TAF period. A busy TAF period expected as showers and thunderstorms will move across the airspace ahead of an approaching front. Reduced flight conditions will occur at all sites during the period due to showers and thunderstorms. Some storms could be severe, especially at sites along and south of I-20. Behind the convection, FG/BR will likely form, reducing vsbys until the front finally moves through early Tuesday morning. Winds will shift to the WNW in wake of the front. Some areas may see SKC for a few hours behind the front, but models suggest some wrap around low clouds will move into the airspace by the end of the period. /20/ && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
