810 PM CST SAT OCT 31 1998

FEW SHOWERS OF EARLIER TODAY HAVE MOSTLY DISSIPATED ALONG WITH MUCH
OF THE LOWEST LEVEL STRATOCUMULOUS CLOUDS...ALTHO A BROKEN DECK
STILL REMAINS OVER MUCH OF THE AREA. ALL IN ALL THO  A RATHER
TRANQUIL EVENING ACROSS THE CWA AS ALL OF THE SIGNIFICANT WEATHER
AND ASSOCIATED NASTIES REMAIN WELL NORTHWEST OF HERE. STILL A LOT OF
UNCERTAINTY FOR US HERE AS FAR AS WHAT WILL ACTUALLY HAPPEN WITH THE
WEATHER ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT...AND WHEN THE FRONT WILL ACTUALLY
PASS. EVENING SOUNDING SHOWING THINGS MOISTENING UP...BELEIVE WE
WILL HAVE NO PROBLEM GENERATING SOME SHOWERS OR STORMS
TOMORROW...EVEN WITH PROGGED WEAK DYNAMICS BY THE MODELS. THAT
SAID...CURRENT FORECAST STILL LOOKS GOOD WITH THE LOW CHANCE POPS
TONIGHT...THEN HIGHER TOMORROW. IF THINGS SPEED UP CONSIDERABLY
...COULD POSSIBLY SEE SOME ACTIVITY MAKING IT TO OUR WESTERN FRINGE
TOWARD MORNING...BUT THINK AT THE MOMENT THE 20 POP WILL DO. SO WILL
NOT ADVOCATE ANY CHANGES AT THE PRESENT TIME.
