SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR NORTH TEXAS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
400 PM CST WED MAR 28 1990

THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT FOR THE FAR
WESTERN PORTION OF NORTH TEXAS...GENERALLY WEST OF A LINE FROM
MONTAGUE TO BRADY. THIS INCLUDES THE CITIES OF
BROWNWOOD...ABILENE...WICHITA FALLS...BRECKENRIDGE AND VERNON.

THE ATMOSPHERE HAS BECOME MORE UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE
WESTERN PORTIONS OF TEXAS AS SKIES HAVE CLEARED AND TEMPERATURES
CLIMBED INTO THE 70S. A WARM FRONT CONTINUES TO MOVE NORTHWARD ACROSS
NORTH TEXAS CONTRIBUTING TO THE INSTABILITY. AN UPPER LEVEL LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM IN THE SOUTHWESTERN U.S. IS GENERATING WEAK IMPULSES
WHICH WILL TRAVEL ACROSS THE RISK AREA TONIGHT GIVING US THE SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER. THE GREATEST THREAT APPEARS TO BE FROM
LARGE HAIL AND POSSIBLY HIGH WINDS.

AT THE PRESENT TIME...CONDITIONS ARE ONLY MARGINAL FOR SEVERE
WEATHER..BUT AS THESE IMPULSES MOVE THROUGH...AND MORE WARM MOIST AIR
IS ADVECTED INTO THE REGION...THE ATMOSPHERE MAY BECOME UNSTABLE
ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.

TOMORROW MAY SEE A GREATER RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER OVER MOST OF NORTH
TEXAS AS THE MAIN DYNAMICS OF THE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM PUSH INTO THE
REGION. IN ADDITION TO THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER...HEAVY RAINS
WILL ALSO BE A POSSIBILITY.

SPOTTERS OVER THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF NORTH TEXAS MAY BE ACTIVATED
TONIGHT. OVER THE REMAINDER OF NORTH TEXAS...SPOTTERS WILL NEED TO
KEEP A CLOSE WATCH ON THE WEATHER FOR POSSIBLE ACTIVATION THURSDAY.
