.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 949 AM CST Tue Nov 11 2025

Dry and breezy conditions on Tuesday will continue into the
beginning of this forecast period. As such, the Fire Danger
Statement will continue until 11pm CST tonight. Winds will weaken
below 10mph by daybreak Wednesday and briefly come up again midday
before weakening during the afternoon. The sustained southerly
flow and quasi-zonal flow aloft will promote a warming trend
through this week. Luckily, low-level moisture return will also be
present and help to reduce fire danger with this warm up.
Temperatures look to reach the upper 70s and low 80s by the
weekend with few clouds to speak of.

The next round of rain continues to be hard to pin down. Models
have alluded to a general trough moving through the region and
bringing rain and a possible severe weather risk. Recent model
guidance is leaning more into the solution of a cutoff low
developing and taking on a much slower prorogation speed. The NBM
is starting to align with this trend and has shifted PoPs to be
first introduced to the Ark-La-Tx at 06z on Sunday. This is still
earlier than some guidance is suggesting, but future packages
could continue this trend if guidance continues to align this
way. The NBM also is keeping PoPs in the forecast into next week
to account for the slow moving nature of this low. If the
persistant rain verifies, there should be some drought relief on
the way for the region.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1200 PM CST Tue Nov 11 2025

For the 11/18Z TAF period, VFR conditions prevail this afternoon
with mostly SKC aside from some very thin cirrus traversing our
airspace. This general trend will continue this evening as gusty
S/SW winds gradually decrease to around 10 kts or less. By early
Wednesday morning, some cu/stratocu around 3Kft is expected to
expand northward from the coast with continued southerly flow
increasing Gulf moisture across our airspace. Although cannot
rule out MVFR cigs along and south of I-20 terminals by 12/09Z,
have limited coverage to just SCT for now and will reevaluate in
future TAF cycles.
