335 PM CDT TUE MAY 15 2007

.DISCUSSION...CORRECTED FOR POPS

APPROACHING COLD FRONT HAS MOVED THRU CENTRAL OK. COOLER AIR
SITTING WELL BEHIND WIND SHIFT. THREE AREAS OF CONVECTION TO WATCH
THIS EVENING. WARM SECTOR HAS REALLY TAKEN OFF...ACROSS MUCH OF
NORTH LA...MAINLY SOUTH OF I-20. SEVERAL HAIL REPORTS HAVE BEEN
RECEIVED. TAIL END OF MCS MOVING ACROSS AR...EVOLVED INTO SCT AREA
TSTMS NOTRH OF I-30. FINALLY...CONVECTION ALWAYS POSSIBILITY ALONG
MAIN FRONT...WHICH IS REASON TO KEEP POPS GOING OVERNIGHT. WARM
SECTOR CONVECTION MORE DIURNAL SO EXPECT THIS AREA TO DECREASE
THIS EVENING. EXPECT AREA NORTH OF I-30 TO TRANSLATE EAST AND FILL
IN AS OUTFLOWS FROM NORTH LA...AND CENTRAL OK...LIKELY COLLIDE IN
THIS REGION...AND GOING LIKELY POPS ALONG LA/AR BORDER LATER
TONIGHT. WITH LACK OF DYNAMICS NOT GOING HIGHER THAN 60 PERCENT...
ALTHOUGH MODERATE DIRECTIONAL UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE MAY ENHANCE
HEAVY RAIN AND UPDRAFT POTENTIAL IN THE EVENING HOURS.

WNW UPPER FLOW SHOULD PUSH FRONT THRU AREA DURING DAY...LEAVE IN
SLIGHT CHANCE SOUTH BY WED AFTN...EXPECT A CLOUD SHIELD TO REMAIN
FOR AT LEAST A FEW HOURS FOLLOWING FRONTAL PASSAGE. DRIER AND
SEASONALLY COOLER CONDITIONS TO FOLLOW INTO THE WEEKEND. /VII/

&&

.AVIATION...
AFTERNOON SURFACE ANALYSIS HAS A COLD FRONT STRETCHING ALONG A
KJLN-KMLC-KGYI LINE AT MID-AFTERNOON...WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHRA/TSRA ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT.  WITH THE ADDITION
OF FRONTAL FORCING...THE CONVECTION SHOULD NOT HAVE A PROBLEM
CONTINUING AFTER SUNSET.  FOR THE 16/0000 UTC TAF PACKAGE...I EXPECT
MVFR FLIGHT CATEGORIES AT MOST TERMINALS DUE TO CIGS AND VSBYS.
POSSIBLE REDUCTIONS TO IFR ARE POSSIBLE...EXPECIALLY IN THE VICINITY
OF THE STRONGER STORMS.  IT LOOKS LIKE THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST
OF OUR AREA WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH A GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT OF FLIGHT
CATEGORIES EXPECTED THEREAFTER.  /21/
