430 FXUS64 KSHV 301120 AFDSHV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Shreveport LA 620 AM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1235 AM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 - Dangerous summertime heat will return this week ahead of July 4th activities. Any outdoor plans should factor in impacts from this heat. - Heat advisory criterion is expected to be met later this week with temperature maximums in the mid-90s or higher. - Rainfall totals will mostly remain below an inch through the rest of the week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1235 AM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 Ridging aloft will gradually intensify after a weak frontal boundary reaches the Four State Region, reducing rain chances by July 4th. That said, any convection (in the usual pulse-updraft storm mode) will continue to be diurnally driven throughout this week, amounting to Day 1-7 totals mostly in the 0.25-0.50 of-an- inch range. Dew points will also remain elevated in the 70s, contributing to dangerous heat outdoors. Long range guidance suggests temperature maximums in the upper 90s are not out of the question by this weekend. Heat hazard products are almost fully certain to be issued this week with dangerous, prolonged heat contributing to cumulative heat stress. Adequate precautions and awareness are encouraged now against the elevated potential for heat illnesses. This includes (and is not limited to) altering outdoor plans, taking frequent breaks if you must be outside, checking the backseat of your vehicle, and knowing the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. /16/ && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 616 AM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025 For the 30/12z TAF update...Satellite imagery continues to show some mainly high level clouds moving through portions of the area in addition to some low clouds across deep east Texas. Have maintained some FEW/SCT150-250 this morning with some lower clouds mentioned for KLFK. This afternoon we will see another cu field develop that will bring widespread SCT around 4-5k feet. There will be some thunderstorm development across our far northern zones this afternoon, although I am not too sure based off model guidance this morning that they will impact any of our terminals. The only place I have mention of anything is VCTS for KTXK around 01/00z. Otherwise, VFR conditions should prevail throughout this period. /33/ && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
