A COLD FRONT THAT MOVED THROUGH THE AREA THIS MORNING HAS STALLED FROM SONORA TO JUNCTION THIS AFTERNOON. THIS FRONT WILL BEGIN TO WORK BACK TO THE NORTH THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. AS THIS FRONT COMES BACK TO THE NORTH...WARM MOIST AIR WILL BEGIN TO RETURN ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TEXAS. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS THE ARE THIS EVENING. ALL THIS COMBINED...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BEGIN TO DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON...AND ESPECIALLY THIS EVENING.

AT THIS TIME A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS EAST OF A LINE FROM JUNCTION TO SAN ANGELO TO ABILENE TO THROCKMORTON. THE MAIN THREATS FROM THESE THUNDERSTORMS WOULD BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THERE IS ALSO A VERY LOW POSSIBILITY THAT A TORNADO COULD DEVELOP ALONG OR JUST NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT AS THUNDERSTORMS BEGIN TO DEVELOP THIS EVENING...WHERE THE WINDS ARE STILL BACKED TO THE EAST NORTHEAST. AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR ANY TORNADOES WOULD BE FROM JUNCTION TO SAN SABA. THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT LOOKS TO BE BETWEEN 5 AND 11 PM. THE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP INTO AN MESOSCALE COMPLEX AND MOVE TO THE NORTHEAST TOWARDS THE METROPLEX. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN... ON SATURDAY...VERY COLD AIR ALOFT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE BIG COUNTRY SATURDAY. THIS WILL CREATE VERY STEEP LAPSE RATES IN THE AFTERNOON. ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DO DEVELOP ACROSS THE BIG COUNTRY IN THE AFTERNOON WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL DUE TO THE COLD TEMPERATURES ALOFT. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUIRED THIS EVENING EAST OF A JUNCTION TO SAN ANGELO...ABILENE TO THROCKMORTON LINE.
