DISCUSSION

Issued at 1125 PM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026

An upper-level trough across the Central Plains extending south into the Gulf of America will produce unsettled conditions across the ArkLaTex on Thursday. Low-level southerly flow resulting from high pressure departing to the east will allow for a train of moisture to surge north across the region allowing for scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms mainly across east and northeast Texas through late morning. Diurnally driven convection to increase in coverage across much of the region later in the afternoon, possibly associated with an enhanced seabreeze boundary surging north. Temperatures on Thursday to average in the low to mid 80s.

An upper-low across northern Mexico to translate northeast on Friday, eventually settling across the Midwest by Sunday evening. The combination of increased instability across the ArkLaTex due to the emerging upper-low, increased southern stream moisture across the region, and a disturbance moving inland from the gulf will allow for a wet weekend across the ArkLaTex with periods of showers and thunderstorms expected each day. Temperatures to average in the 80s each day.

Gulf disturbance and upper-low to eject northeast early next week with an upper-level ridge to build in their wake. Subsidence associated with the upper ridge to bring drier conditions with afternoon high temperatures forecast to climb into the lower 90s by Tuesday. /05/

AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 229 AM CDT Thu Jun 4 2026

For the 04/06z TAF Period...Currently mostly cloudy with a mix of VFR/MVFR cigs across the region, as some low clouds are starting to form. There is also a few isolated showers across NE Louisiana and adjacent South-Central Arkansas. Eventually, low cigs will fill in by daybreak, along with some isolated to scattered showers, especially at terminals along and west of I-49 corridor. The convection will intensify by this afternoon with isolated to scattered showers becoming mix with thunderstorms, generally in the same aforementioned areas. As of now, we have storms dissipating after sunset, but there is some hint some isolated convection could continue through the end of the TAF period. Winds will generally be ESE between 5-10 mph during the period. /20/
