NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
1235 PM CDT TUE APR 28 2009

.AVIATION...
SEVERAL AVIATION CONCERNS FOR THE NEXT 24-30 HOURS BUT THE MAIN
CONCERN WILL BE CEILING HEIGHTS. CEILINGS ARE LIFTING AT THIS HOUR
BUT WILL LIKELY REMAIN IN MVFR AND LOW END VFR FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE DAY. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT THE AIRPORTS THROUGH
SUNSET...WHICH MAY RESULT IN TEMPORARY IFR CIGS. CEILINGS WILL
LOWER BACK INTO IFR AND LIFR OVERNIGHT...LIFTING AGAIN DURING THE
LATE MORNING HOURS. WINDS AT MOST SITES VARY BUT SHOULD BECOME
SOUTHEASTERLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS AND PREVAIL SOUTHEASTERLY
FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT
THUNDERSTORMS MAY APPROACH THE METROPLEX OVERNIGHT BUT CHANCE IS
TOO LOW TO MENTION IN THE TAFS. WILL ALSO WATCH FOR POTENTIAL OF
STORMS AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

82/JLD

&&

.UPDATE...
A QUICK UPDATE WAS DONE TO INCREASE POPS AND QPF ACROSS THE
SOUTHEASTERN ZONES. AN COMPLEX OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN ZONES
THIS MORNING...AND WILL PRODUCE LOCALIZED FLOODING. THUS HAVE
ALSO ADDED HEAVY RAIN WORDING TO THE ZONES. SOME LOCATIONS WILL
PICK UP 2 TO 5 INCHES OF RAIN WITH THESE STORMS.

VISIBILITIES FROM THE FOG ARE INCREASING...AND WE MAY CANCEL THE
DENSE FOG ADVISORY AFTER LOOKING AT THE 10 AM OBSERVATIONS.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 307 AM CDT TUE APR 28 2009/

A SHORT WAVE WILL ROTATE ACROSS THE EXTREME SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF
NORTH TEXAS THIS MORNING AND BRING SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS. ACTIVITY SHOULD BE ENHANCED AFTER SUNRISE ONCE
A WEAK COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THAT REGION AND PROVIDES ADDITIONAL
LIFT. SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE. HOWEVER...THE
SEVERE POTENTIAL SHOULD BE LOW. THE REMAINDER OF NORTH TEXAS MAY
SEE A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TODAY BUT ANY STORMS THAT FORM
SHOULD BE ELEVATED.

NORTH TEXAS WILL REMAIN IN WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT THROUGH
THE WEEKEND WITH STORM CHANCES MAINLY DRIVEN BY THE PASSAGE OF
BRIEF SHORT WAVE ENERGY. ONE SHORT WAVE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
REGION WEDNESDAY AND BRING SCATTERED STORMS...ESPECIALLY TO THE
NORTHWEST ZONES. ANOTHER WAVE AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES FRIDAY NIGHT AND BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF
STORMS THROUGH SATURDAY. A FINAL SHORT WAVE IS PROGGED TO MOVE
ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT WITH MORE STORMS POSSIBLE.

CLOUDS AND LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE ABUNDANT FOR MUCH OF THE
WEEK AND THAT SHOULD KEEP AFTERNOON HIGHS MAINLY IN THE MIDDLE 70S TO
LOWER 80S. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE MAINLY IN THE 60S...EXCEPT FOR
SOME UPPER 50S THIS MORNING AND AGAIN ON THE WEEKEND.
