596 FXUS64 KSHV 152052 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 352 PM CDT Fri Mar 15 2019 .SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Saturday night/ Surface high pressure centered over the Texas Panhandle will begin to move east and build into the four state area. The pressure gradient that was tight today over the area will relax and winds will follow suit. Temperatures will fall into the mid to upper 30s for most locations along and north of I-20. Otherwise, will see some partly cloudy skies as some cirrus moves in from the southwest. /35/ .LONG TERM.../Sunday through Friday/ Short wave trough that provided plenty of severe weather earlier this week across the eastern U.S. now centered over Quebec. The forecast area is under confluent flow from the subtropical jet over SRN TX, N Old Mexico, and the Gulf Coast and from the polar jet from SW Canada. Expect this trend to continue through the weekend. By the beginning of next week, a ridge begins to build across TX in the subtropical jet with dry conditions to continue as well as a warming trend. Abundant sunshine through at least next Thursday will very likely result in our vegetation coming out of hibernation that include the spring azalea blooms. Our next chance of rain returns by late next week as a short wave trough ejects from the desert SW and traverses the forecast area during the fourth weekend of this March. /VIII/ && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
