DISCUSSION...
A COLD FRONT IS BACKING INTO OUR NORTHEAST COUNTIES EARLY THIS
MORNING WITH CONVECTION MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL TEXAS ALONG THE
FRONT. A CAPPING INVERSION HOLDS THE WESTERN COUNTIES OF SOUTH
CENTRAL TEXAS IN DRY AIR THIS MORNING, BUT DEWPOINT ADVECTION OF
LOW 70S AND THE FRONTAL CONVERGENCE WILL EVENTUALLY WITHER THE CAP
AWAY BY MIDDAY TO BRING A GOOD CHANCE OF RAIN TO ALL AREAS.

MODEL QPF POINTS TO THE PARCHED SW COUNTIES AS THE AREA MOST
LIKELY TO GET HEAVY RAINS. THUS A RUNOFF THREAT IS NOT ANTICIPATED
OTHER THAN THE POTENTIAL FOR A 2 INCH DOWNPOUR OVER AN URBAN OR
FLASHY AREA.

THE WX MAIN THREAT IS SEVERE WEATHER FROM LARGE HAIL AND STRAIGHT
LINE WINDS. A THREAT FOR TORNADOES WILL EXIST MAINLY FOR TODAY
ALONG THE FRONT WHICH WILL BE LOOSELY DEFINED DUE TO OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES DURING THE DAY. STORMS ARE SUGGESTED BY THE HIGHER
RESOLUTION MODELS TO BECOME MORE ORGANIZED INTO A COMPLEX AS THEY
MOVE INTO THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS THIS EVENING. ELEVATED STORMS AND
HAIL WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH THE NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY
MORNING AS MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES REMAIN PLENTY STEEP.

THE NW FLOW PATTERN BECOMES A MORE STABLE NORTHERLY FLOW PATTERN
BY LATE MONDAY WITH THE MID LEVEL LAPSE RATE DISAPPEARING WITH
THE LOW LEVEL COOL AIR ADVECTION. THUS A PLEASANT SPRING DAY IS ON
TAP FOR MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE UPPER LOW OVER THE
NERN US RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS PLEASANT WEATHER PATTERN WILL ROTATE
NE WITH A GENERAL TROUGH LEFT BEHIND TO PRODUCE ANOTHER NW FLOW
PATTERN OVER TX LATE IN THE WEEK. THIS PATTERN MAKE TAKE LONGER TO
PRODUCE A CHANCE OF RAIN SINCE A DRY AIR REGIME WILL BE IN PLACE.
THERE IS ALSO THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE THAT WILL COVER AT LEAST THE
WESTERN PART OF TX AND MODELS SHOW VARYING DEGREES OF STRENGTH OF
THIS RIDGE. THUS SOME GHOST 10 POPS WERE LEFT TO FINISH OUT THE
EXTENDED FORECAST. WILL NOT STRAY FROM MEX GUIDANCE TEMPS FOR
LATE IN THE WEEK UNTIL MODEL HEIGHT FIELDS FALL INTO BETTER
AGREEMENT.
