Area forecast discussion 
National Weather Service Shreveport la 
957 am CST Monday Nov 23 2009 


Discussion... 
fog is lifting slowly with still a couple of stubborn pockets over 
Texas counties. Extended fog in the weather grid for another 
couple of hours in the Lufkin and Nacogdoches vicinities and 
farther north of I-20 and I-30 corridor of NE Texas. Slight downward 
trend on a few highs over Texas due to the fog and slight drop in the 
wind grids. Also ... fog lifts...mostly cloudy wording to become 
partly cloudy this afternoon fits well with expectations. /24/ 


&& 


Aviation... 
dense fog at lfk and ggg starting to erode. Visibilities still a quarter 
mile at lfk but should erode rapidly before 17z. At other 
sites...ceilings are the problem but again should improve through 18z. 
Expect MVFR/VFR at all sites by early afternoon. Cold front 
approaches the region from the west late tonight but should remain 
just west of our East Texas terminals by 24/12z. Will likely see some 
patchy fog with low ceilings once again ahead of the front overnight 
and will thus make this mention in the 18z taf package this afternoon.
