WX MAP PAINTS A RELATIVELY QUIET FORECAST THIS WEEK WITH MINIMAL
CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION. A SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STALL
OVER NORTH LOUISIANA KEEPING ANY ORGANIZED PRECIPITATION WELL TO
THE NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. MEANWHILE BROAD HIGH PRESSURE
CONTINUES TO BUILD OVER THE CENTRAL GULF INTRODUCING PLENTY OF
STABILIZING SUBSIDENCE TO HINDER ANY ACTIVITY THAT WORKS ITS WAY
SOUTH OVER NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE LOUISIANA. LIKEWISE, OUR
SOUTHEAST TEXAS COUNTIES ARE LOOKING AT A DRY AND HOT FORECAST AS
WELL. GIVEN THE SUBSIDENCE IN PLACE AND LESS CLOUD COVER, HIGHS ARE
FORECAST TO WARM INTO THE LOW TO MID 90S ACROSS THE AREA- WITH THE
WARMEST TEMPERATURES FORECAST ACROSS THE INTERIOR COUNTIES AND
PARISHES.
WARM HIGHS CONTINUE THROUGH THE MIDWEEK ON WEDNESDAY WITH SOME
INTERIOR LOCATIONS BUILDING FURTHER TOWARD THE UPPER 90S. WE'LL BE
VERY CLOSE TO HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA. EVEN WITHOUT AN ADVISORY IN
PLACE, THOSE WORKING / BEING ACTIVE OUTDOORS FOR EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME SHOULD CONSIDER REST, TIME TO COOL OFF, AND PLENTY OF
HYDRATION THIS WEEK.
BY THURSDAY THE STATIONARY FRONT BEGINS TO PULL NORTHWARD, AWAY FROM
THE ARKLATEX REGION WITH WEAK SURFACE RIDGING REMAINING ACROSS THE
TX / LA COAST. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE OUT OF THE SOUTH AS LIGHT
TO MODERATE BREEZES. SOME OF THE DETERMINISTIC GUIDANCE BRINGS A DRY
UPPER LEVEL LOW ACROSS THE NW GULF BY FRIDAY. GIVEN THE HIGHER
PRESSURE HEIGHTS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS, AT THIS TIME, THE
FEATURE APPEARS TO PULL DRY CONTINENTAL AIR SOUTHWARD OVER THE
FORECAST AREA. THEREFORE, OUR DRY FORECAST PROGRESSES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND WITH NO ORGANIZED PRECIPITATION.
