AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
632 AM CST WED DEC 3 2008

.AVIATION...
GUSTY SOUTH SOUTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 25 KNOTS WILL BECOME
WESTERLY AFTER 16Z WHICH WILL RESULT IN A CROSSWIND ON NORTH TO SOUTH
ORIENTED RUNWAYS. A COLD FRONT THAT EXTENDED SOUTHEAST OF A KBVO
/BARTLESVILLE OK/...KCDS /CHILDRESS TX/....KCVN /CLOVIS NM/ LINE
AS OF 12Z...WILL APPROACH THE METROPLEX TAF SITES 19-21Z AND TOWARD
00Z AT WACO WITH THE WINDS SHIFTING TO THE NORTHWEST AND LATER NORTH.
THE WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO ONLY SLOWLY DECREASE TO 15-20 KNOTS
DURING THE EVENING. THE LOW RAIN CHANCES THAT WE HAVE THROUGH THIS
EVENING WILL BE TO THE EAST OF THE TAF SITES.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 411 AM CST WED DEC 3 2008/
SOUTHERLY WINDS AND WARM TEMPERATURES EXPECTED FOR THE FIRST HALF
OF TODAY ACROSS NORTH TEXAS BUT ANOTHER SHOT OF COLDER AIR IS ON
THE WAY. 999MB SURFACE LOW IS LOCATED OVER NORTHWEST OKLAHOMA THIS
MORNING AND WILL QUICKLY MOVE EAST DRAGGING A STRONG COLD FRONT
THROUGH THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. AN ABRUPT WIND SHIFT TO THE
NORTHWEST AND MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES EXPECTED BY EARLY EVENING.
SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATES NARROW AXIS OF MOISTURE EXTENDING UP
THROUGH THE HILL COUNTRY AND GENERALLY ALONG AND EAST OF
INTERSTATE 35. SHORT TERM GUIDANCE HAS A PRETTY GOOD HANDLE ON
THIS AND DEVELOPS SOME WEAK INSTABILITY ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN
HALF OF THE CWA BY EARLY AFTERNOON. STRONG FORCING FROM
APPROACHING TROF WILL OVERSPREAD THE AREA LATER TODAY AND A LINE
OF CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT BY LATE
AFTERNOON. BY THIS TIME...FRONT SHOULD BE THROUGH MOST OF THE CWA
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FAR SOUTHEASTERN AREAS. WILL KEEP MENTION OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONFINED TO THAT AREA.

STRONG COLD ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT WITH
EXTENSIVE MID AND HIGH CLOUDINESS CLEARING OUT OF THE AREA. THIS
WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO FALL TO NEAR FREEZING OVER A GOOD PORTION OF
NORTH TEXAS. COLDEST NIGHT APPEARS TO BE THURSDAY NIGHT WHERE
TEMPS FALL TO BELOW FREEZING IN MOST AREAS...SOME LOW TO MID 20S
ACROSS THE NORTH.

FORECAST WILL REMAIN DRY THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH A SLIGHT WARMUP
EXPECTED. MODELS DIVERGE BY EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH A WESTERN US
SYSTEM. GFS CUTS OFF A STRONG UPPER LOW OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC
BY SUNDAY WHILE 00Z ECMWF EJECTS UPPER LOW EASTWARD BY SUNDAY AND
SENDS IT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ON MONDAY. THIS WOULD BE A
MUCH WETTER SOLUTION FOR NORTH TEXAS SINCE SOME DECENT GULF
MOISTURE WOULD GET PULLED NORTHWARD AHEAD OF THE STRONG SYSTEM. AS
IS TYPICAL DURING THE TURBULENT WINTER MONTHS...MODEL GUIDANCE
USUALLY VARIES WILDLY BEYOND 3-4 DAYS OUT SO CONFIDENCE IS LOW. WILL
KEEP SOME LOW CHANCE POPS IN FOR MON/MON NIGHT BASED ON A MORE
CONSISTENT ECMWF AND ADJUST WITH TIME.

LAST MINUTE NOTE ON WINDS THIS AFTERNOON...10Z SURFACE ANALYSIS
NOW SHOWS WIND GUSTS TO NEAR 50 KTS ACROSS SOUTHWEST KANSAS AND
THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE BEHIND THE FRONT. GRADIENT IS TIGHTER AND
ISALLOBARIC COMPONENT MUCH STRONGER THAN IS EXPECTED THIS
AFTERNOON ACROSS NORTH TEXAS. NONETHELESS...BRIEF PERIOD OF WIND
GUSTS TO 35 KTS WILL BE POSSIBLE IMMEDIATELY BEHIND FRONT. WILL
HOLD OFF ON A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE TIME BEING BUT WILL CONTINUE
TO MONITOR.
