PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 327 AM CDT TUE AUG 9 2005)

DISCUSSION...
EARLY THIS MORNING...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXTENDED
FROM JUST NORTH OF SWEETWATER...SOUTHEAST THROUGH ABILENE AND THE
HEARTLAND OF TX. SURFACE WINDS OVER WEST CENTRAL TX WERE VERY LIGHT...
THOUGH KSJT VAD WIND PROFILER INDICATED THAT WINDS ABOVE THE
LOW LEVEL NOCTURNAL INVERSION HAVE INCREASED DRAMATICALLY SINCE
MIDNIGHT...WITH SPEEDS OF 30 TO 35 KTS IN THE 2 TO 3 KFT AGL
LAYER. THIS LEVEL INFLOW IN COMBINATION WITH A MID LEVEL SHEAR
AXIS WAS HELPING TO SUSTAIN THE CONVECTION. THE SHEAR AXIS WAS
DIFFICULT TO DISCERN ON GOES WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...BUT WAS
APPARENT ON THE 400 MB WIND PROFILER PLOT FROM SOUTH OF
JAYTON...TO THE ARKLATEX REGION.

PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN REMAINS RAIN CHANCES. ETA PROGS LITTLE OR
NO CONVECTIVE INHIBITION OVER THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF WEST CENTRAL
TX BY 18Z. GIVEN CURRENT TRENDS...AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THIS
MORNING/S CONVECTION MAY IMPINGE ON THIS AREA AS WELL. GIVEN THE
WEAKLY CAPPED ATMOSPHERE THIS AFTERNOON...EXPECT THUNDERSTORM
PROPAGATION TO BE PRIMARILY INFLUENCED BY THE INTERACTION OF THE
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. WILL CARRY HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES OVER THE
SOUTHEAST...ALONG THE SOUTHEAST PERIPHERY OF THE SHEAR AXIS AND
WHERE WEAK CAP/POSSIBLE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MAY HELP FOCUS CONVECTION
INITIALLY.

BOTH GFS AND ETA MODELS GRADUALLY WEAKEN THE SHEAR AXIS UNDER THE
BROAD UPPER RIDGE THROUGH FRIDAY. EVEN THOUGH SOME CONVECTIVE
FOCUS MAY BE LOST WITH THE WEAKENING OF THE SHEAR AXIS...EXPECT
CONVECTIVE INHIBITION TO REMAIN WEAK. ISOLATED MAINLY DAYTIME
THUNDERSTORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT IN THE WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
TIME FRAME...GIVEN SURFACE HEATING AND WEAK LOW LEVEL FORCING.
WITH FEWER CLOUDS AND MORE ISOLATED CONVECTION...EXPECT TEMPS TO
WARM TO NEAR SEASONAL VALUES. MAV GUIDANCE MAY BE A DEGREE OR TWO
TOO WARM...GIVEN THE RECENT RAINS OVER WEST CENTRAL TX IN THE PAST
WEEK.

UPPER HEIGHTS WILL FALL SLIGHTLY OVER THE WESTERN U.S. OVER THE
WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK. GFS MODEL TAPS MONSOONAL FLOW IN THE
MID LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW ACROSS WEST TX. THIS PATTERN IS TYPICALLY
RESULTS IN INCREASED PRECIPITABLE WATER AND INCREASED RAIN CHANCES
FOR WEST CENTRAL TX. WILL BUMP UP OUTER PERIOD RAIN CHANCES
SLIGHTLY.

SJT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 4 PM TUESDAY FOR TXZ113-TXZ114-TXZ127-
TXZ128-TXZ139-TXZ140-TXZ154-TXZ155.
