BUSY MORNING AVIATION-WISE AS ANOTHER PRE-DAWN MCS MOVES THROUGH THE
DFW PTN OF TRACON ONCE AGAIN. FIRST COMPLEX PUSHING SE INTO JOHNSON/ELLIS
COUNTIES...BUT OUTFLOW INTERACTIONS AND FEED FROM WEAK LLJ HELPING
TO REDEVELOP CONVECTION BACK NWWD TOWARDS JACKSBORO/DECATUR. AS
SAID...WILL EXTEND MENTION OF TEMPO MVFR CIGS/VSBYS...AND VRB GUSTS
TO 25 MPH FOR HEAVIER CONVECTION DFW AREA THROUGH 15Z...WITH MVFR
WACO AREA TIL 16Z OR SO...WITH  -SHRA POSSIBLE AFTER 12Z AS WELL.

.EARLY MORNING PUBLIC DISCUSSION 335 AM CDT...
VERY ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES ACROSS NORTH TEXAS THIS MORNING AND
THINGS WILL JUST GET EVEN MORE ACTIVE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. CURRENT CONVECTION WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO DEVELOP INTO THE
40 KT LLJ THIS MORNING SO WILL NEED TO HAVE HIGH POPS ACROSS THE
NORTH HALF FOR MAINLY THIS MORNING. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LOOK PRETTY
GOOD AGAIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT AS THERE WILL BE
BOUNDARIES-A-PLENTY AROUND AND MODELS SHOW WEAK FRONT TO WORK INTO N
TEXAS. H5 PVA WILL ENHANCE LIFT ALONG THE BOUNDARY THIS EVENING AND
WITH CAPE 2-4K J/KG...STEEP LAPSE RATES AND LITTLE CIN...SEVERE
THREAT ON A MODERATE LEVEL LOOKS GOOD. EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO
DEVELOP MAINLY OUT WEST...WITH ENOUGH SHEAR AND VEERING TO ALLOW
SOME SUPERCELLS TO FORM. PRIMARY THREAT SHOULD BE LARGE HAIL AND
GUSTY WINDS. SYSTEM SHOULD EVOLVE INTO A LARGE MCS WITH SEVERE
THREAT EVOLVING INTO A FLOOD/FLASH FLOOD THREAT OVERNIGHT. BELIEVE
THE GFS QPF MAY BE A BIT OVERDONE WITH 5 INCHES...BUT THERE COULD BE
SOME AREAS THAT GET THAT MUCH GIVEN PWAT NEAR 2 INCHES ON ETA
FORECAST SOUNDINGS. CORFIDI VECTORS AND MINOR THETA-E AXIS ALONG W-E
BOUNDARY SUGGEST MCS WILL INITIALLY PROPAGATE E BEFORE TURNING MORE
SE AND THEN POSSIBLY S INTO THE MAJOR THETA-E AXIS CLOSER TO 12Z
SATURDAY. GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF RAIN RECENTLY...AND THE PRETTY LOW
FFG...WE WILL GO AHEAD AND ISSUE A FFA FOR MOST OF N TEXAS FOR
TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING. TEMPS WILL BE TRICKY THE NEXT FEW
DAYS AS THEY WILL BE HIGHLY DEPENDANT UPON CONVECTION...OR LACK
THEREOF...IN THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

H5 LOW LOOKS TO GET CUT-OFF UNDER WRN RIDGE AND THIS...COUPLED WITH
THE WEAKENING SURFACE COLD FRONT/TROUGH AXIS...WILL KEEP RAIN
CHANCES AROUND INTO THE MIDDLE PART OF NEXT WEEK.
