DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 101 AM CST SUN DEC 21 2025
A COOL FRONT, CURRENTLY LOCATED ALONG A LINE FROM TYLER, TX TO EL
DORADO, AR, WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH SOUTHWARD INTO THE FORECAST AREA
OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS TODAY. LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS,
AND POSSIBLY SOME DRIZZLE, WILL DEVELOP ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS
BOUNDARY AS IT PUSHES ACROSS THE REGION. IN FACT, WE ARE ALREADY
SEEING SOME RADAR RETURNS JUST NORTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR OF EAST
TEXAS AND NORTH LOUISIANA AS I WRITE THIS DISCUSSION. IN ADDITION
TO THE RAIN, FOG WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THIS FRONT ALONG
AND SOUTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS TODAY.
THE FRONT SHOULD FINALLY PUSH SOUTH OF THE AREA BY LUNCHTIME
TODAY. NORTHEAST WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT WILL PUSH IN COOLER AND
DRIER CONDITIONS INTO THE REGION. THESE WINDS COULD BE BREEZY AT
TIMES, WITH GUSTS UP TO 25 MPH. BUT, NO WIND ADVISORY IS EXPECTED,
AS SUSTAINED WINDS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW THE 20 MPH ADVISORY THRESHOLD.
THE COOLER AND DRIER CONDITIONS WILL BE SHORT-LIVED, AS THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL LIFT BACK NORTH INTO THE REGION AS A WARM
FRONT ON MONDAY. THIS WILL ALSO BRING RAIN CHANCES BACK INTO
PORTIONS OF THE REGION AS EARLY AS DAYBREAK. AS OF NOW, THE BEST
CHANCES FOR RAIN WILL BE ACROSS ALL OF LOUISIANA PARISHES, AND OUR
ADJACENT DEEP EAST TEXAS AND SOUTH-CENTRAL ARKANSAS ZONES.
IN WAKE OF THE WARM FRONT, UPPER RIDGING WILL QUICKLY BUILD INTO
THE REGION BY MONDAY EVENING. THIS WILL BRING DRY CONDITIONS BACK
INTO THE AREA, WITH THE WARMER AIRMASS REMAINING IN PLACE. THESE
WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE
CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY WEEK, WITH AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES CLIMBING INTO
THE MID TO UPPER 70S EACH DAY. WITH THESE TEMPERATURES, RECORD
HIGHS COULD BE POSSIBLE DURING THIS PERIOD. /20/
