.UPDATE...
MODERATE RAIN CONTINUES OVER MUCH OF NORTH TEXAS WITH MORE
ACTIVITY ROTATING NORTHWARD FROM THE HILL COUNTRY. FLASH FLOODING
CONTINUES TO BE THE MAIN THREAT. RADARS ARE PERFORMING POORLY AS
FAR AS PRECIP ESTIMATION...WITH KFWS AND KGRK UNDERESTIMATING.
FORECAST LOOKS GOOD...WITH HIGHEST POPS IN THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN
PORTIONS OF NORTH TEXAS. NO CHANGES WILL BE MADE AT THIS TIME. /13

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 555 AM CDT MON MAY 28 2007/

AVIATION...
555 AM.
A WEAK STATIONARY UPPER LOW AND ABUNDANT TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL
AGAIN RESULT SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA WITH HEAVY RAINFALL TODAY AND EARLY
EVENING...HOWEVER COVERAGE AND ACTIVITY MAY BE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN
YESTERDAY. MVFR CIGS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE KDFW TRACON THIS
MORNING...THEN LIFTING TO VFR DURING THE AFTERNOON AND MOST OF THE
NIGHT. MVFR CIGS RETURN 08Z AND AFTERWARD. COULD BE BRIEF PERIODS OF

AS FOR KACT...VERY SIMILAR SITUATION EXCEPT CONVECTION WILL OCCUR

WINDS GENERALLY SOUTHEAST 5-10KT.  75

PREV DISCUSSION...  410 AM.
THE AREAL COVERAGE OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT HAS
BEEN MUCH LESS THAN WHAT WE HAVE SEEN DURING THE LAST FEW NIGHTS
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. WATER VAPOR SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS
SEVERAL WEAK VORTICES ACROSS THE REGION...ONE OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS
MOVING NORTHEAST...ANOTHER OVER OVER WEST TEXAS MOVING EAST...
ANOTHER OVER NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS LIFTING NORTH. WE WILL REMAIN IN A
MOIST AIRMASS DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE 00Z KFWD RAOB SHOWED THE
PRECIPITABLE WATER AT 1.47 INCHES...ABOUT 130 PERCENT OF NORMAL.
GIVEN THE SATURATED GROUND AND POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN...WILL KEEP
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH AS IS FOR TODAY. HAVE KEPT THE BEST POPS
ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN ZONES...WITH CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE
WEST FOR TODAY. WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS FOR MOST OF THE COMING WEEK. THE BEST CHANCES OF RAIN
WILL SHIFT TO EAST TEXAS WEDNESDAY AS THE UPPER TROUGH SHIFTS
SLIGHTLY EASTWARD. A WEAK FRONT WILL MOVE TOWARD THE RED RIVER
THURSDAY...AND MAY SINK INTO NORTH TEXAS BRIEFLY LATE
THURSDAY...BEFORE LIFTING BACK TO THE NORTH FRIDAY. HAVE DECIDED TO
ADD POPS TO THE FORECAST FOR NEXT WEEKEND AS WE WILL BE IN
NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT...AND THE GFS TRIES TO BRING A SERIES OF
SHORTWAVES ACROSS NORTH TEXAS. #58
