.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1053 PM CDT Fri Aug 8 2025

The region will be split between an upper-level ridge of high
pressure across Texas and Oklahoma and a broad upper-low across
the western gulf into Louisiana and Mississippi on Saturday. Areas
under the ridge, including east and northeast Texas as well as
southeast Oklahoma and adjacent counties in southwest Arkansas can
expect another hot and dry day with temperatures in the mid to
upper 90s and heat index values exceeding 105 degrees. Thus, a
Heat Advisory remains in effect for these areas through Saturday.
Elsewhere, the influence of the upper-trough will allow for enough
instability and mixing to restrict high temperatures to the mid
90s with heat index values remaining below advisory criteria.

The upper-trough will retrograde west into Texas on Sunday
bringing a slightly unsettled weather pattern across the ArkLaTex through
midweek. Afternoon showers and thunderstorms can be expected each
day with the highest rain chances expected on Monday. By midweek,
the pattern will have changed very little with the upper-trough
lingering across central Texas into Oklahoma and a ridge building
across the northern gulf coast. With the building ridge,
temperatures across mainly north Louisiana and south Arkansas
could again approach the upper 90s on Thursday and Friday. /05/

(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 114 AM CDT Sat Aug 9 2025

VFR conditions should prevail across all terminal locations
through the next 24 hours. Cannot rule out very isolated showers
and/or storms today across portions of Northeast Texas, Southeast
Oklahoma and Southwest Arkansas but storm changes are too minimal
to include a mention in this TAF package. Otherwise look for a
growing cu field across our airspace today that will dissipate
near or shortly after 00z this evening. Look for east to southeast
winds generally under 10kts.
