KPAH 88D PRETTY FULL W/SCT CONVECTION...MAINLY DIURNAL. WHILE THERE
COULD CONTINUE TO LINGER SOME CONVECTION OVERNIGHT...THINK THE
MAJORITY OF THE PCPN WL BE BROKEN INTO TWO...IE THE DIURNAL CONVECTION
WL DIMINISH W/SUNSET...THEN ANOTHER ROUND BE EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT N
AND W AS THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES. PCPN WL BE FRONTAL TOMORROW BUT
ENHANCED VIA DIURNAL HEATING...ESP IN THE EAST...WHERE FRONT WL BE
LATER TO PASS. WL LINGER SMALL POP SE INTO EARLY THU NIGHT AS ALL
MODELS SYNCHRONIZING NOW W/TIMING. GFS AND TO A LESSER EXTENT ETA
PAINTING SOME DECENT QPF BUT WITH FRONT MOVING ON THRU AND AREA SO
DRY DONT ANTICIPATE WIDESPREAD SIGNIFICANT FLOODING. SPC DOES HOLD
SLGT RISK OVER FA OR PTNS OF IT THRU FROPA.

EXPECT POST FRONTAL AIR MASS TO BE DRY ENOUGH TO INHIBIT NW FLOW
TYPE CONVECTIVE POSSIBILITIES...AT LEAST IN THE SHORT TERM. BY SUN
TDS MAY REBOUND ENOUGH TO ALLOW WEAK UPR TROF SCENARIO TO TOUCH OFF
A FEW DIURNAL STORMS...SO WL INSERT A SMALL CHC POP THEN. OTHERWISE
WL KEEP THE REMAINDER OF THE FCST DRY...ALTHOUGH W/THE WLY-NWLY FLOW
ALOFT THERE COULD BE SOME SMALL CHANCE TYPE POPS THAT SNEAK IN W/TIME.

TWEEKS...IF NECESSARY...WHEN NEW GUIDANCE BECOMES AVAIL CLOSER TO
PRESS TIME.
