National Weather Service Shreveport LA 1057 AM CDT Fri Apr 19 2024 ...New UPDATE... .UPDATE... Issued at 1048 AM CDT Fri Apr 19 2024 Very diffuse frontal boundary late this morning is slowly backdooring itself southward across Northern Louisiana and Deep East Texas attm. Latest progs confirm that this boundary will continue its slow southward drift through the day and may be a sfc trigger for isolated showers/storms across our far southern zones later today. Further north, going to hold onto slight chance pops as well as latest CAMS and HRRR suggests that we could see some post frontal development and this is certainly possible given the fact that the 850mb boundary remains north of our region attm. All this to say no changes to the pop forecast for the remainder of the day. Did however raise temps slightly across the I-20 Corridor of N LA as 15z temps were within a couple degrees of forecast highs even through the frontal boundary drifting southward should slow the warming trend. All other areas are in the ballpark so no additional changes were necessary. 13
