.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 346 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2007/

SHORT TERM...
POTENT UPPER LEVEL LOW WITH ATTENDANT SHORTWAVES AND SPEED MAXES
IS CURRENTLY IMPACTING MOST OF WEST TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON. THIS LOW
WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY DRIFT TO THE EAST/NORTHEAST TONIGHT TOWARD
WEST CENTRAL TEXAS. AS THIS TAKES PLACE...CONTINUED EAST/SOUTHEAST
FLOW AT THE SURFACE WILL CONTINUE TO PUMP MOISTURE INTO OUR AREA.
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES RANGE FROM 1.2 AT KMAF TO 1.5 INCHES AT
KDRT FROM THIS MORNING/S SOUNDINGS. AFTERNOON HEATING COMBINED
WITH THIS ADDED MOISTURE HAS DESTABILIZED THE ATMOSPHERE OVER THE
AREA...AND STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE CURRENTLY DEVELOPING
OVER THE CONCHO VALLEY AND WESTERN BIG COUNTRY. WITH THE ADDITION
OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK ROTATING AROUND THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE
LOW...0-6 KM BULK SHEAR VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE INTO THE
40 TO 50 KNOT RANGE TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE SOUTHERN
COUNTIES OF THE CWA. IN ADDITION...FLASH FLOODING WILL BE A
POTENTIAL HAZARD AS SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE
POSSIBLE OVER THE AREA. HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH OVER THE
NORTHERN EDWARDS PLATEAU...WESTERN CONCHO VALLEY AND FAR WESTERN
BIG COUNTRY.

LONG TERM...
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL BE SLOW TO EXIT THE AREA OVER THE NEXT 24
TO 36 HOURS...AND THERE WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING THUNDERSTORMS FOR
MONDAY. MOISTURE WILL STILL BE READILY AVAILABLE. ROTATING
SHORTWAVES WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO MOVE AROUND THE LOW WITH MID AND
UPPER LEVEL SPEED MAXES. THERE WILL BE LULLS IN
PRECIPITATION...BUT TIMING OF THESE INDIVIDUAL SHORTWAVES IS
DIFFICULT AT THIS TIME...SO HAVE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS ACROSS THE
AREA FOR MONDAY. WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE THREAT FOR HEAVY
RAIN...SO WILL LEAVE HEAVY RAIN WORDING IN THE FORECAST. IN
ADDITION TO THE HEAVY RAIN...IF THE AIR MASS IS ABLE TO
RECOVER SUFFICIENTLY FROM OVERNIGHT RAINS TO DESTABILIZE...SEVERE
WEATHER WILL CONTINUE TO BE A POSSIBILITY...MAINLY WITH LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS.

MONDAY NIGHT...THE LOW SHOULD BE MAKING ITS WAY INTO OKLAHOMA...
SO WILL SHIFT THE LIKELY CHANCE FOR SHRA/TSRA INTO OUR EASTERN
COUNTIES. HOWEVER...IF THE LOW SLOWS DOWN...WE MAY HAVE TO KEEP
SOME HIGHER POPS BACK FARTHER TO THE WEST. AGAIN...HEAVY
RAIN...LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE A POSSIBILITY WITH
ANY OF THE THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP. WE SHOULD SEE A BRIEF BREAK
IN THE ACTIVE WEATHER TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY...AS WEAK
RIDGING FOLLOWS THIS LOW BEFORE ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES
IN.

CONTINUING INTO THE MIDDLE PART OF THE WEEK...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL
LOW THAT IS CURRENTLY OUT OVER THE PACIFIC IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
INTO WEST TEXAS BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH PRECIP POSSIBLE FROM
WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY AS THE LOW MOVES ACROSS THE TX PANHANDLE
AND TX SOUTH PLAINS. WE MAY ALSO SEE SOME STRONG WEST WINDS AS THE
SYSTEM COMES ACROSS ON THURSDAY.

RIDGING AFTER THURSDAY SHOULD ALLOW FOR A BREAK IN THE ACTIVE
WEATHER PERIOD AND A WARMUP INTO THE WEEKEND.
