Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 9:40 PM CDT, 3 hours 32 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 940 PM CDT TUE JUN 26 2007 ...SORRY FOR THE DELAY...WE HAD A BUG IN THE ZONES...AND JUST KNOW FOUND IT. THE 940 FORECAST DISCUSSION FOLLOWS... 850 PM PUBLIC UPDATE... .WE HAVE ISSUED NEW ZONE FORECAST AND GRIDS...COOLING OFF LOW TEMPERATURES A BIT TONIGHT...INCREASING RAIN CHANCES IN THE SOUTHEAST...AND DECREASING RAIN CHANCES TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE SOUTHEAST PLUNGING SQUALL LINE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM (MCS) MOVING OUT OF THE PANHANDLE...COULD LATCH ON TO THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY...LEFT BEHIND BY OUR NORTH TEXAS SQUALL LINE...AND CAUSE MORE WATER PROBLEMS EARLY WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...THAT REMAINS AS A POSSIBILITY...NOT A PROBABILITY AT THIS TIME. CURRENTLY...OUR EXPECTATIONS THAT THE REMNANTS OF THE PANHANDLE MCS WILL PASS TO OUR WEST AND SOUTHWEST LATER TONIGHT...ASSUMING THAT THE MCS HOLDS TOGETHER. #26 && .AVIATION... 532 PM THE TSTM LINE IS MOVING THROUGH THE METROPLEX NOW. IT SEEMS TO BE SLOWING DOWN A BIT NOW THAT IT HAS SLID DOWN THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW AND IS NOW MOVING MORE TOWARDS THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE LOW. COLD POOL IS A BIT STRONGER THAN WE HAVE SEEN THE LAST FEW DAYS WITH SOME DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S...THIS MAY STABILIZE THE AIR BEHIND IT GIVING SOME RESPITE FROM THE STORMS FOR THE NORTHWEST AREAS. AS FAR AS TAFS GO...WILL KEEP THUNDER IN THE TAFS THROUGH 02Z...THEN TONE THE RAIN DOWN THROUGH MID DAY WEDNESDAY WHEN IT MAY MAKE ANOTHER RETURN. 84 && .DISCUSSION... 258 PM THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS EXTENDED THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOR ALL OF NORTH TEXAS. OUR CONFIDENCE WAS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO REMOVE ANY COUNTIES FOR THE TIME BEING. THE UPPER TROUGH/SHEAR AXIS OVER WESTERN OKLAHOMA AND OUR WESTERN CWA WILL ONLY MEANDER A LITTLE THROUGH THURSDAY. IT SHOULD BEGIN TO DRIFT NORTHWARD THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS THE EASTERN CANADA UPPER TROUGH MOVES EAST AND DEEPENS...HOWEVER THE SHEAR AXIS OVER OUR WESTERN CWA WILL LINGER OVER THE WEEKEND. COME NEXT WEEK...THE UPPER TROUGH PIVOTS WEST TO EAST AND SLIDES DOWN INTO THE SOUTHERN STATES...EXTENDING FROM GEORGIA TO THE TEXAS HILL COUNTRY. DUE TO OUR EXTREMELY MOIST AIRMASS AND EASTERN SIDE LIFT OF THE UPPER TROUGH...MORE ROUNDS OF HEAVY RAINFALL ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE CWA. SINCE THIS IS A WARM CORE SYSTEM...THE CONVECTION WILL BE MORE NUMEROUS AND SCATTERED DURING THE DAYTIME AND MORE CONCENTRATED NEAR THE LOWS CENTER AT NIGHTTIME WHICH IS OUR FAR NORTHWEST CWA. THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL REMAINS VERY LOW...BUT A BRIEF SMALL FUNNEL OR AN F0 VORTEX COULD OCCUR THROUGH THURSDAY. WE/VE KEPT POPS HIGH FOR SEVERAL MORE DAYS AND ADDED LOW CHANCE POPS TO THE FIRST OF NEXT WEEK SINCE THE UPPER TROUGH ISN/T LEAVING SOON. CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE FORECASTING HIGH/LOW TEMPERATURES A LITTLE DIFFICULT. DECIDE TO PULL HIGH BACK SLIGHTLY THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE GOVERNED BY DEWPOINTS AND CLOUD COVER. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... DALLAS-FT.
