NWS Forecaster Discussion
962 fxus64 kshv 201731 aac afdshv Area forecast discussion...updated National Weather Service Shreveport la issued by National Weather Service Fort Worth Texas 1131 am CST Thursday Nov 20 2008 Aviation... 18z tafs timing of wind shift is greatest challenge for this taf issuance. Tyr/lfk/shv/mlu presently with west winds...but will shift to northwest/north by middle to late afternoon /20-23z/. Expect north to northeast winds around 10 kts overnight. Skies will remain VFR. Js/forward && Previous discussion... /issued issued by National Weather Service Fort Worth Texas/ Update... patchy dense fog still lingering in Monroe vicinity but conditions should rapidly improve during the next hour. While cold front has plowed across areas to our north and west this morning...front seems to be hung up across far northern sections of the County Warning Area. Will make some adjustments to wind grids and lower sky cover through the morning hours. Will not make tweaks to maximum temperature grid for now as slower frontal passage should yield afternoon temperatures close to current forecast. Js/forward Discussion... /issued 859 am CST Thursday Nov 20 2008/ quick zone update just sent to cancel the dense fog advisory for deep East Texas/scntrl Arkansas/all of north la...before our office GOES down for the NAS Beta software upgrade. Fog will completely burn off within the next hour or so...with approaching cold front expected to plow southward into the region late this morning/afternoon. Did beef up sky cover to partly cloudy by afternoon with low level moisture pooling along the front...which is expected to clear from north to S tonight with drier air filtering S in wake of the front. Maximum temperatures up across SW Arkansas today may be a little too warm...with strong cold advection with the front expected to allow temperatures to drop with the frontal passage. Will allow our backup office /WFO ftw/ address these concerns in a possible later update. We hope to be up and going again by midday or so. Updates suite of products have been issued...grids will be available shortly. 15 Aviation... dense fog across southeast half of County Warning Area...trapped in 1000 feet saturation layer...within a surface-900 mb steep inversion layer. Dense fog advisory expiring 15z...patches fog may continue past 1630z. Strong cold front slowed down...remaining west and north of County Warning Area. North winds behind front may gust to around 25 miles per hour this afternoon. Aside from fog...VFR sky clear both sides of front. /Vii/ && Preliminary point temps/pops... shv 71 35 50 29 54 / 0 0 0 0 0 mlu 69 34 49 27 53 / 0 0 0 0 0 deq 63 28 49 24 52 / 0 0 0 0 0 txk 65 32 49 28 52 / 0 0 0 0 0 eld 66 30 48 25 52 / 0 0 0 0 0 tyr 71 34 51 30 55 / 0 0 0 0 0 ggg 71 34 50 29 54 / 0 0 0 0 0 lfk 76 37 53 30 57 / 0 0 0 0 0 && Shv watches/warnings/advisories...
