...New UPDATE...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 957 PM CDT Fri Jul 12 2024

With the early evening convection having diminishing with the
setting sun, have removed pops from the forecast this evening
across Deep E TX and the Srn sections of NCntrl LA. Otherwise,
elevated cloud cover will persist tonight in VC of a weak
inverted mid-level trough aloft extending from SE and Deep E TX
into Wrn LA. These cigs will help slow the radiational cooling in
place, with temps expected to fall to near if not slightly warmer
than what was observed this morning. Thus, the forecast mins
remain in good shape, with the potential for more in the way of
widely scattered convection over the region especially during the
afternoon Saturday, which should help to limit the extent of
warming compared to what the progs were indicating Thursday
evening.

Zone update already out...grids will be available shortly.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 613 PM CDT Fri Jul 12 2024

For the 13/00Z TAFs, a few very isolated pockets of thunder
tracking northwest towards the I-20 corridor in east Texas look to
dissipate quickly after sundown, along with the 5K Cu field which
has dominated area skies this afternoon. SCT to BKN mid to high
level cloud decks look to remain overnight, however, with the
possibility of thinning out in coverage towards daybreak.
Returning Cu field expected during the mid-morning, with scattered
showers and storms once again in the afternoon hours across our
southern counties and parishes. Southerly winds becoming
southwesterly will remain relatively light throughout, at
sustained speeds not much exceeding 5 kts, and limited gusts,
if any.
