.UPDATE...
Issued at 948 PM CDT Mon Apr 22 2024

For this evening's update, no major wholesale changes are needed.
Another quiet night is in store, with mostly clear skies,
providing optimal viewing conditions for the waxing gibbous moon,
which will become truly full tomorrow evening. This month's full
moon is known as the Pink Moon, named for the pink creeping
phlox, one of the earliest blooming flowers of Spring. 

Temperatures are cooling into the upper 50s and lower 60s as of 
the 03Z hour with dewpoints in the mid 40s, allowing for another 
full night of radiational cooling to lows in the mid to upper 40s
across the ArkLaTex. Ingested the most recent several hours worth
of temperature and dewpoint observations and interpolated through
to 12Z.
