UPPER LOW OVER TX PANHANDLE THIS AFTERNOON WILL MOVE NEWD TONIGHT AND INTO
SE KS BY MONDAY MORNING. SHOWERS REMAIN WIDESPREAD OVER THE
NORTHERN HALF OF OK THIS AFTERNOON. SURFACE BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM
NORTH TEXAS INTO WEAK SURFACE LOW IN FAR WCNTRL OK. CLOUDS HAVE
DIMINISHED SOME IN THE SW CORNER OF THE FA AND THIS HAS ALLOWED
TEMPS TO WARM UP A BIT. THE MODEST HEATING COMBINED WITH COLDER
TEMPS ALOFT AS UPPER LOW MOVES OVER THE AREA HAS INCREASED
INSTABILITY AND SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN TO
DEVELOP. LAPS SHOWS CAPES 500-1000 J/KG EARLY THIS AFTERNOON IN
FAR SW PARTS OF THE FA. GIVEN THE INSTAB AND FAVORABLE SHEAR COULD
SEE A FEW SEVERE HAILERS LATE THIS AFTN AND EARLY EVENING. EXPECT

NCNTRL OK INTO MONDAY MORNING BEFORE SYSTEM FINALLY MOVES OUT.
TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY COOL ON MONDAY...ESP NORTH AND EAST
WHERE CLOUDS WILL LINGER MUCH OF THE DAY. NEXT SYSTEM EXPECTED TO
IMPACT THE AREA MID TO LATE WEEK. MODELS HAVE COME INTO SOMEWHAT
BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE TIMING AND EVOLUTION OF THIS SYSTEM NOW
POINTING TO A MORE CLOSED OFF AND SLOWER MOVING TRACK. WILL
CONTINUE WITH POPS BEGINNING IN THE WEST ON WEDNESDAY AS UPPER
SYSTEM NEARS THE AREA AND LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURNS. GIVEN THE
SLOW EWD MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM COULD BE SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK.
