New AVIATION
SHORT TERM
(This evening through Saturday Night)
Issued at 111 PM CDT Fri Jul 26 2024
Upper-level trough that has brought copious amounts of rainfall to the region over the past several days will retrograde northwest tonight. This jog to the northwest will bring little improvement to the pattern with another surge of moisture possibly streaming northeast across the region again late tonight into Saturday.
Based on the latest hires guidance, most of the heavier precipitation that would warrant a Flood Watch will remain closer to the coast. Therefore, there is no plan to expand the ongoing Flood Watch at this time. However, with ongoing flood warnings still in place across portions of Deep East Texas and adjacent parishes in north Louisiana for the next couple of hours, will hold off on ending the watch early.
High temperatures on Saturday will remain seasonably cool in the lower to middle 80s due to increased rainfall and cloud-cover.
A chaotic atmosphere to persist into Saturday night with lingering convection slowly waning and multi-level cloud decks persisting areawide. Overnight lows forecast to average in the upper 60s to lower 70s. /05/
LONG TERM
(Sunday through next Thursday)
Issued at 111 PM CDT Fri Jul 26 2024
Upper-level trough to eject northeast at the start of the long- term period allowing for an upper-ridge to build east across the region. The upper-ridge will remain in place through the end of next week allowing for drier conditions areawide. Subsidence associated with the ridge will drive afternoon high temperatures into the mid 90s by Thursday. Accordingly, with increased low- level moisture in place, afternoon heat index values could reach advisory criteria across parts of the region as early as Monday.
Rain chances will become limited and confined to mainly the hottest part of the day in the afternoon. Otherwise, overnight low temperatures in the low to mid 70s expected each night. /05/
AVIATION
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 641 PM CDT Fri Jul 26 2024
For the ArkLaTex terminals, little change over the next day as the pattern continues with the shear axis overhead. VFR/MVFr now will see the IFR setting back in later this evening and early morning.
Another surge of moisture will bring showers and isold TS with daybreak. Models showing things start to loosen up earlier tmrw with VFR cigs during the aftn as the rain areas push out of the region. Coverage will further diminish for Sunday with one last push perhaps before the hot&dry conditions resume next week. /24/
