.UPDATE...
THE WCN HAS BEEN UPDATED TO REMOVE OUR FAR NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES
FROM TORNADO WATCH 174. HOWEVER...FOR THE REMAINDER OF TOR BOX
174...THE WATCH HAS BEEN EXTENDED THROUGH 03Z /10PM/...TO ACCOUNT
FOR ONGOING CONVECTION. AT THIS TIME...WE ANTICIPATE THAT ALL OF TOR
BOX 174 WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 03Z...AND THE OTHER WATCH BOXES
/176 AND 179/ ARE SET TO EXPIRE AT 04Z. SEE UPDATED WCN FOR FURTHER
DETAILS.

.AVIATION...
730 PM CDT

THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRIMARILY AFFECT AFW. DFW/DAL LIKELY TO ESCAPE
BULK OF ACTIVITY...BUT WILL MAINTAIN VCTS. NO AWW FOR DFW ATTM AS
LIGHTNING STRIKES SHOULD BE INFREQUENT WITHIN 10NM OF TERMINAL
COMPLEX. HOWEVER...AWW MAY BE NEEDED BEFORE THREAT OF THUNDER COMES
TO AN END.

LINE OF INTENSE CONVECTION CONTINUES TO DEVELOP FROM SONORA TO
BROWNWOOD...WHERE SUNSHINE HAS HELPED SFC-BASED INSTABILITY TO BE
REALIZED. ALTHOUGH MOVEMENT OF INDIVIDUAL CELLS IS NORTHEAST...
EXPECT PROPAGATION OF LINE TO THE SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT...IN RESPONSE TO VIGOROUS LLJ. LINE WILL BECOME DISTINCTLY
SEPARATED FROM NORTH TEXAS CONVECTION. STORMS MAY REMAIN ROOTED IN
THE BOUNDARY LAYER WELL AFTER DARK...FEEDING OFF OF CONSIDERABLE
PWATS IN LARGELY UNTAPPED AIR. EXPECT WACO TO BE THE NORTHERN EDGE
OF THIS ACTIVITY AND HAVE REFRAINED FROM TS MENTION IN KACT TAF.
NONETHELESS...WILL BEAR WATCHING FOR ANY LATE ARRIVALS INTO ACT/GRK.

SOUTHERLY SFC WINDS WILL PREVAIL OVERNIGHT. 00Z FWD RAOB SHOWING
46KTS AT 2KFT. OUTSIDE OF CONVECTIVE WIND SHEAR...EXPECT SOME LLWS
TO CONTINUE WITH LLJ UNTIL DRYLINE PASSAGE 14-15Z WEDNESDAY MORNING.
MOSTLY CLEAR WEDNESDAY AS DRYLINE SCOURS BL DRY AND WINDS SHIFT TO
THE SOUTHWEST. DEEP VERTICAL MIXING WILL INCREASE DEPTH OF SPEED
SHEAR. BELIEVE MOS WINDS ARE TOO LOW FOR WEDNESDAY. POTENTIAL FOR
SIGNIFICANT CROSSWINDS...25016G28KT BEYOND 14Z. WINDS WILL VEER LATE
IN THE DAY...REDUCING CROSSWINDS ON RWYS 31L/R. FOR 06Z PACKAGE...
WILL ADD A MID-AFTERNOON FM GROUP TO ACCOUNT FOR VEERING AND REDUCED
CROSSWIND COMPONENT. 25

...SEVERE WEATHER EVENT IN PROGRESS ACROSS NORTH TEXAS...

UPPER LEVEL LOW IS EJECTING INTO WESTERN KANSAS AND THE OKLAHOMA
PANHANDLE. DRY LINE/COLD FRONT IS ALIGNED JUST WEST OF OUR
FORECAST AREA. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE RAPIDLY DEVELOPED IN THE PRIME
ENVIRONMENT FOR SEVERE WEATHER. 18Z FWD SOUNDING REVEALED THE
CAPPING INVERSION /AND LAYER WITHIN/ COOLED SINCE THE 12Z RAOB. LOW
LEVEL HELICITIES INCREASED BETWEEN 12Z AND 18Z...WITH THE
HODOGRAPH BECOMING MORE FAVORABLE FOR TORNADIC STORMS. HEAVY RAIN
ALREADY IN PROGRESS...AND AS THE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS INCREASE IN
COVERAGE AND CONGEAL OVER OUR SOUTHEAST ZONES...WIDESPREAD
FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE. WE HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR
AREAS ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF AN ATHENS TO KILLEEN LINE FROM 00Z TO
12Z WEDNESDAY. SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL CONTINUE ACROSS NORTH
TEXAS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND THROUGHOUT THE
EVENING HOURS. ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE DRY
LINE/COLD FRONT WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES...LARGE
HAIL...AND DAMAGING WINDS. CURRENTLY...TORNADO WATCHES COVER ALL
BUT OUR SOUTHEAST ZONES. AS WE APPROACH EVENING...A TORNADO WATCH
WILL LIKELY BE ADDED TO INCLUDE THE WACO/TEMPLE/KILLEEN AREAS.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL LINGER IN OUR EAST/SOUTHEAST ZONES
THROUGH MID AFTERNOON WEDNESDAY...BEFORE FINALLY SHIFTING INTO
SOUTH TEXAS AND LOUISIANA.

DRY CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED THURS AND INTO EARLY FRIDAY...WITH
HIGHS IN THE MID 70S. CANADIAN/DGEX/ECMWF HAVE COME IN LINE WITH
THE GFS IN REGARDS TO THE FRIDAY NIGHT/SAT MORNING SYSTEM. WE WILL
CARRY SLIGHT CHC AND CHC POPS DURING THIS TIME FRAME. REMAINDER OF
THE EXTENDED FORECAST LOOKS DRY AS MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGING
DEVELOPS AND SFC HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES INTO THE REGION.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTH TEXAS.

...SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE EXPECTED THROUGH THIS
EVENING...

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

THERE IS A MODERATE RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CONTAINING LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS TO 70 MPH...AND A FEW TORNADOES. THE
GREATEST THREAT FOR DISCREET SUPER-CELLS AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES
APPEARS TO BE FROM THIS AFTERNOON INTO MID EVENING...ESPECIALLY IN
AND NEAR THE RED RIVER WHERE SURFACE WINDS MAY TEND TO BACK AROUND
TO THE SOUTHEAST IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM EASING EAST INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA. STORM ACTIVITY SHOULD
CONGEAL MORE INTO A LINEAR SQUALL LINE BY MID EVENING...WITH
DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL BEING THE MAIN THREATS.

AS THE UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM PULLS OVER OKLAHOMA...A PACIFIC COLD
FRONT SHOULD SLOWLY PUSHING INTO WESTERN SECTIONS OF NORTH TEXAS
BY MIDNIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WEDNESDAY. THIS MAY LEND
TO STALLING TRENDS TO THE THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST
PORTIONS OF NORTH TEXAS. AS A RESULT...WIDESPREAD RAINFALL BETWEEN
2 TO 3 INCHES...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS IN EXCESS 4 INCHES MAY
OCCUR SOUTH OF ATHENS...CORSICANA...WACO...KILLEEN LINE. THUS...
FLASH FLOODING WILL BECOME AN INCREASING CONCERN AS THE NIGHT
PROGRESSES...AND INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

RESIDENTS OF NORTH TEXAS SHOULD VERY CLOSELY MONITOR RAPIDLY
CHANGING... HAZARDOUS WEATHER SITUATION AND TAKE NECESSARY
PRECAUTIONS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE MORNING HOURS WEDNESDAY...
NAMELY ACROSS FAR EAST AND SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF THE AREA.
ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...AND FLASH
FLOODING WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THESE AREAS. A FEW STORMS
COULD REMAIN STRONG WITH GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL. STORM ACTIVITY
SHOULD PUSH EAST OUT OF THE AREA BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL PROVIDE ANOTHER CHANCE OF STORMS
FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY MORNING. AT THIS TIME...THE SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT IS UNCERTAIN...THOUGH A FEW STORMS COULD BE STRONG WITH
GUSTY WINDS AND SMALL HAIL.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS IMMINENT FOR ALL OF NORTH TEXAS THROUGH THIS
EVENING...THEN MAINLY AREAS SOUTHEAST OF PARIS...DALLAS...GATESVILLE
LINE AFTER MIDNIGHT. EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL SHOULD MONITOR
WEATHER CONDITIONS VERY CLOSELY THROUGH TONIGHT.
