Tornado Warning 24, NWS San Angelo, TX

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN ANGELO TX
827 PM CST WED NOV 6 1996

THE WINDS SHIFTED TO THE NORTHEAST AT SJT JUST BEFORE 8 PM AND THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY INDICATED BY OUR RADAR EXTENDED ACROSS SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE IRION...TOM GREEN...AND CONCHO COUNTIES. THE
ORIGINAL CELLS THAT EXHIBITED SUPERCELL CHARACTERISTICS AT TIMES
OVER REAGAN...IRION...AND NORTHWEST TOM GREEN SEEM TO HAVE WEAKENED
AS THEY HAVE BECOME  CLUSTERED TOGETHER. THE MAIN LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS EXTENDED FROM THE WESTERN BIG COUNTRY SOUTHWARD TO
CROCKETT COUNTY...WHILE MORE STORMS CONTINUED IN THE NORTHERN
HEARTLAND. THE STORMS HAVE HELD THEIR OWN ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FRONT
AND WILL STILL BE CAPABLE OF BECOMING SEVERE FOR THE DURATION OF THE
WATCH...ESPECIALLY ON THE WARM SIDE OF THE FRONT. AS THE COLDER AIR
BECOMES DEEPER IN OUR NORTHERN AREAS...THE RAINS WILL BECOME MORE
GENERAL IN NATURE...BUT I CAN NOT RULE OUT SOME COLD HAIL AS THE
VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE NOW NEAR EL PASO SWEEPS ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TEXAS
DURING THE NIGHT.

THERE WILL STILL PROBABLY BE LEFTOVER RAIN AFTER MIDNIGHT...BUT THE
MIDLAND RADAR INDICATED THAT THE RAINS WERE PRETTY LIGHT BEHIND THE
MAIN STORM LINE...AND JUST ABOUT OVER FROM THE DAVIS MOUNTAINS
WESTWARD. IT MAY BE A LITTLE CLOSER TO SUNRISE BEFORE WE CLEAR OUT
BUT THE CLEARING PROCESS WILL BE QUICK ONCE THE SHORTWAVE PUSHES
THROUGH. WILL LEAVE FORECASTS AS IS UNTIL THE STORMS WEAKEN OR MOVE
OUT.
