DISCUSSION

Issued at 1134 AM CST Mon Nov 9 2026

Despite high clouds streaming northeast across the region this morning from an upper-low over west Texas, weak upper-ridging continues to prevail across the ArkLaTex, maintaining mainly dry conditions areawide. Near calm winds expected today as surface high pressure remains firmly established across the region. Under mostly cloudy skies, high temperatures today to climb into the low to mid 70s.

A gradual warming trend expected through midweek as weak southwest flow returns with temperatures by Wednesday approaching 80 degrees.

A cold front will move across the region on Wednesday evening bringing a wind shift to the northwest followed by much cooler temperatures. With a lack of return moisture ahead of the front, mainly dry conditions expected with the frontal passage.

On Thursday, post-frontal northwest winds around 10 mph with higher gusts are expected. The combination of dry conditions and elevated winds could lead to an elevated fire weather threat through the late afternoon hours before winds settle to 5 knots or less by sunset. Temperatures on Thursday night to range from the upper 30s across southwest Arkansas to the upper 40s across Deep East Texas.

The coldest temperatures of the forecast period will be Friday night into Saturday with lows ranging from near freezing across portions of south Arkansas to the mid 40s elsewhere. Highs on Saturday to range from upper 60s to lower 70s.

Otherwise, a gradual warming expected late in the weekend as weak southerly flow returns to the region as the prevailing surface high eases east. /05/

AVIATION

(12Z TAFS) Issued at 1133 AM CST Mon Nov 9 2026

VFR conditions will prevail for all sites this period with clouds generally at or above 10k ft through this evening. Winds will largely go calm overnight with some lowering decks moving toward daybreak tomorrow morning. Some light showers could linger west of KTYR with an incoming low just before 10/12z but confidence on location remains too low to include for now. There could also be some fog develop in areas west of KTXK that could briefly drop cigs at the terminal as mixing gets going late tomorrow morning. There isn't enough confidence to include just yet but will be a focus for future packages. /57/
