INTENSE MID LEVEL TROUGH TRAVERSING THE PLAINS IS SUPPORTING THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SFC LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS. TWO
POTENT MID LEVEL VORTICIES ONE OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND THE
OTHER ENTERING WEST TEXAS WILL EVENTUALLY PHASE...MERGING INTO ON
LARGE HEIGHT ANOMALY OVER THE GREAT LAKES. IMPRESSIVE HEIGHTS FALLS
AND MASS DIVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS UPPER LOW WILL SUPPORT
RAPID DEEPENING OF SFC LOW PRESSURE AS THE NORTHERN TEXAS LOW
PUSHES INTO THE GREAT LAKES. IN RESPONSE TO THIS SFC WAVE...THETA-E
ADVECTION WILL REV UP THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...ALLOWING TEMPS
TO SURGE OVERNIGHT INTO THE LOWER 50S AS SFC WINDS RESPOND TO A 75

AS SFC LOW PRESSURE INTENSIFIES AND MOVES TOWARD THE
REGION...MOMENTUM FIELDS WILL ADJUST AND ALLOW AN INTENSE LL JET OF
NEAR 80 KNOTS TO PUSH INTO THE REGION. ROBUST THETA-E ADVECTION AT
THE NOSE OF THE JET WILL BEGIN TO COINCIDE WITH STAGGERING LARGE
SCALE ASCENT PER THE ADVANCING H5 TROUGH. THIS WILL SUPPORT THE
DEVELOPMENT OF PERIODS OF SHOWERS. HAVE ADDED THUNDER DUE TO THE
INTENSITY OF THE MID LEVEL WAVE...COLLOCATION OF THE LEFT EXIT
REGION OF AN IMPRESSIVE 150+ KNOT UPPER LET...AND ROBUST THETA-E
ADVECTION. POCKETS OF HEAVIER RAIN COULD BE PRESENT WITH THIS
SYSTEM...AGGRAVATING FLOODING CONCERNS WITH SNOW MELT EXPECTED
DURING THE DAY. THIS WILL HAVE TO MONITORED FOR POSSIBLE FLOODING
CONCERNS. SHARP COLD FRONT WILL ENTER THE WESTERN FA BY MID MORNING.
TEMP FALLS WILL BE RAPID WITH THIS FRONT AS TEMPS IN THE 40S AND 50S
WILL RAPIDLY FALL INTO THE 20S AND 30S BY LATE MORNING. THERE MAY BE
A BRIEF PERIOD OF SNOW SHOWERS POST FRONTAL. HOWEVER... THESE
