.DISCUSSION...UPPR PTN TO REMAIN RATHER ENERGETIC...BUT PROGRESSIVE
OVR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. UPPR SYS CURRENTLY OVR THE PLAINS WL MOV EWD
IN THE LOCAL AREA BY EARLY MON MORN...AND INTO THE NERN PARTS OF THE
COUNTRY BY TUES NIGHT...EVENTUALLY CARVING OUT A LRG UPPR LO IN THAT
AREA. MODELS IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE OVERAL SITUATION. FCST
FOCUS CENTERS ON POPS/SEVERE WX EARLY IN THE SHORT TERM WITH
INCOMING SYS.

IN THE NR TERM...RADAR INDICATING SCT SHWR/TSTM ACTVTY ACRS THE AREA
IN WAA ZONE. APPEARS MAIN UPPR SUPPORT WITH THIS SYS CURRENTLY
APPROACHING WRN MO...AND MODELS BRING THIS ENERGY RAPIDLY THRU THE
LOCAL AREA IN THE 01Z-07Z TIME FRAME. CDFNT LINGERS A LTL FARTHER
BEHIND...PROB NOT REACHING THE OH BORDER TIL 10Z-11Z OR SO. LOOKS
LIKE WHATEVER DVLPS OVR MO IN THE NEXT FEW HRS WL BE PUSHING THRU
DURG THE 01Z-07Z TIME FRAME...WITH ADDITIONAL ACTVTY PSBL ALONG THE
CDFNT AFT THAT. OVERALL PARAMETERS STILL SUPPORT A SVR THREAT...
MAINLY AFT 01Z...WITH AN ENHANCED THREAT OVR THE SWRN CWA. WIND
SHEAR LOOKS TO MAXIMIZED ACRS THE SRN PARTS OF STATE IN THE 06Z-12Z
TIME FRAME...SO SVR THREAT MAY LINGER WELL INTO THE EARLY MORN HRS
OF MON...IF TSTMS CAN DVLP ALONG CDFNT.

IN THR LTR PDS...LOOKS LIKE THERE WL BE SOME WRAP AROUND PCPN BEHIND
THE SYS THRU EARLY MON AFT...ESPECIALLY IN THE N. WL GO WITH LIKELY
POPS IN THE N...WITH CHC POPS FARTHER S. PCPN THREAT SHOULD DIMINISH
LTR IN THE AFT ON MON AS SYS PULLS AWAY. LO LVL WIND FIELDS OFF THE
MODELS SUGGEST MAYBE SOME 35KT SFC GUSTS ON MON AS WELL. IMPROVING
CONDS XPCTD MON NIGHT/TUES AS HI PRES BLDS IN.

UNDER WAA MOST OF THE NIGHT...TEMPS WL PROB HOLD OR RISE INTO THE
60S FOR THE BALANCE OF THE NIGHT...WITH READING DROPPING INTO THE
45-50 DEG RANGE BEHIND CDFNT. LTL TEMP RISE XPCTD ON MON UNDER STG
CAA. NGM MOS TEMPS IN THE LTR PDS LOOK REASONABLE AT THIS TIME BASED
ON PROGGED LO LVL THICKNESSES.
