AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA 136 PM CDT SAT AUG 6 2005 .DISCUSSION... PRETTY QUIET ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON. AREA STILL UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE DRIER AIR ON THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TO OUR EAST WITH LITTLE IF ANY CU YET TO GET GOING IN THE EAST. BETTER MOISTURE PRESENT ALONG AND NORTH OF THE I-30 CORRIDOR WHERE CONVECTION IS STARTING TO POP ALONG A VERY DIFFUSE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. VERY LITTLE CHANGE IN THE THINKING OF OUR UPCOMING WEATHER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. UPPER LOW ACROSS CENTRAL ALABAMA THIS AFTERNOON EXPECTED TO MOVE VERY LITTLE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES MOVE SOUTHWARD TOWARDS OUR REGION FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. BY EARLY NEXT WEEK...THESE DISTURBANCES BECOME A FAIRLY STRONG TROUGH AXIS WHICH WILL INTERACT WITH A HIGHER MOISTURED ENVIRONMENT TO PRODUCE SCATTERED CONVECTION PRETTY MUCH EVERY DAY. DIFFICULT TO HIGHLIGHT ANY ONE AREA THROUGH MIDWEEK NEXT WEEK WHERE PRECIPITATION COVERAGE WILL BE BETTER. CONVECTION WILL BE VERY DEPENDENT ON RESULTING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND WHERE HEATING CAN TAKE PLACE. AS A RESULT...SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL BE THE BEST WAY TO WORD THIS PRECIPITATION WITH LITTLE RANGING FOR POPS. KEPT TEMPS LOWER NEXT WEEK WITH THE HIGHER PRECIPITATION CHANCES. THIS TROUGH BEGINS TO PULL NORTHWARD BY THURSDAY INTO NEXT WEEKEND... BRINGING AN END TO WHAT WE HOPE WILL BE SOME BENEFICIAL RAINFALL FOR THE REGION WITH THE ONGOING DROUGHT CONDITIONS IN PLACE. UPPER RIDGE APPEARS TO RETROGRADE INTO THE LOWER MISS VALLEY BY LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY WITH MORE TYPICAL AUGUST WEATHER EXPECTED. 13 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
