Good morning! Once again, dense fog could slow you down this morning. All of NW LA and SW AR along and south of I-30 are under a Dense Fog Advisory until 9AM. It does not look like the fog will linger as long today as it did on Tuesday, and most of it will be gone by 10AM. The fog will likely reduce visibilities lower than a quarter of mile across most of the advisory area.

If fog doesn’t slow you down this morning than rain might. Rain has already developed across E TX and will likely continue to spread to the northeast this morning and afternoon. Along with the fog, the rain will likely reduce your visibility and slow you down this morning. Strong to severe storms are not expected. However, heavy rain is possible.

Scattered showers will likely continue this afternoon, mainly across NW. Because of the clouds, rain and fog, temperatures will only top out in the low to mid 50s today, so along with an umbrella keep a heavy jacket handy today. Temperatures will not tumble this evening. Most places will hang out in the upper 40s to near 50 degrees. There is a chance we could see a break in the rain activity late this afternoon through the early evening.

Rain and a few showers will be possible tonight through Thursday morning. Lows will be in the low to mid 40s. The wind will pick up out of the NW tonight, which will likely limit the potential for dense fog tonight.

The rain and clouds will wrap up from west to east across the ArkLaTex Thursday morning into Thursday afternoon. Despite the increasing sunshine, Thursday is going to be windy day. Expect a NW breeze at 10-20 mph. Friday will be sunny and cool as well. Highs on Friday will be in the 50s.

We'll be more on the mild side this weekend. Highs on Saturday and Sunday will be in the low to mid 60s. Overall, the weather will not slowdown any last minute shoppers. However, a stray shower can't be ruled out on Sunday.

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day will be mild. Highs on both days will be in the low to mid 60s. Even though a few showers will be possible on Monday and Tuesday, neither day is going to be a washout. More rain will be possible towards the middle or end of next week.

Have a great day!
