AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
645 PM CDT THU OCT 1 2009

.UPDATE...
AN ACTIVE LINE OF CONVECTION CONTINUES TO SLIDE SOUTHEAST ACROSS
PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. EXPECTING A
CONTINUED THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS
THIS LINE PUSHES THROUGH THE FOUR STATE REGION. AT THIS
TIME...THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN EXTENDED EASTWARD
AND WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT THROUGH 2 AM. MAIN THREAT WILL BE
DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WIND AND HAIL. /05/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 301 PM CDT THU OCT 1 2009/

DISCUSSION...
AN ACTIVE NIGHT IS IN STORE FOR THE FOUR STATE REGION. WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY THIS AFTERNOON SHOWS A TROUGH DIGGING INTO THE PLAINS STATES
WITH A DECENT NEGATIVE TILT TO IT.  SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS THE
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT IS STRETCHED FROM WESTERN IOWA THROUGH WESTERN
MO INTO SOUTHEAST OK AND NORTH CENTRAL TX.  RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS A
LINE OF STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT STRETCHED FROM
SOUTHWEST MO INTO OK.  THERE ARE ALSO SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THAT HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF THE
LINE OF STORMS OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE CWFA. THIS ACTIVITY
IS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO AN UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT TO DEVELOP INTO
ANYTHING SEVERE. HOWEVER...IF THESE STORMS BEGIN TO FORM FURTHER
WEST THERE WILL BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND LAPSE RATES FOR THE STORMS
TO PRODUCE HAIL AND POSSIBLY SOME STRONG WINDS.  SO THIS POSSIBILITY
WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

THE MAIN STORY WILL BE A SQUALL LINE THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.  AS MENTIONED...THE SQUALL LINE IS
BEGINNING TO DEVELOP JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS SHOULD BEGIN TO ENTER NORTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWFA BETWEEN
4 PM AND 7 PM.  IT IS EXPECTED TO REACH THE INTERSTATE 30 CORRIDOR
BETWEEN 7 PM AND 10 PM. IT IS EXPECTED TO LEAVE THE CWFA BY
SUNRISE.  THE MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS SQUALL LINE WILL BE DAMAGING
WINDS...WITH HAIL BEING A SECONDARY RISK.  MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW
THAT HELICITY IS RATHER LOW /BELOW 100 M2/S2/ AND SHOULD NOT BE
CONDUCIVE TO TORNADOES.  HOWEVER...WILL NOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT THE
POSSIBILITY OF ONE OR TWO DEVELOPING WITHIN LINE SEGMENTS. AS THE
LINE MOVES THROUGH THE CWFA...THE AREA WILL BE LOSING INSTABILITY.
MLCAPES THIS HOUR AHEAD OF THE LINE AROUND 2000 J/KG ARE EXPECTED TO
DECREASE TO AROUND OR BELOW 1000 J/KG BY AROUND OR AFTER MIDNIGHT.
IN ADDITION...THE BEST UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE IS RATHER NORTH OF THE
CWFA...SITTING OVER THE MO/NORTHERN AR AREA. SO THE MAIN AREA OF
CONCERN WILL BE LOCATIONS ALONG AND NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20
CORRIDOR.  BUT WILL NOT RULE OUT THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWFA
RECEIVING AT LEAST STRONG STORMS WITH OCCASIONAL SEVERE STORMS AS
THIS LINE PASSES THROUGH.

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY BUILD BACK INTO THE AREA BEHIND
THE FRONT.  WE SHOULD SEE SKIES CLEAR RATHER QUICKLY DURING THE DAY
ON FRIDAY WITH MUCH DRIER AIR MOVING INTO THE REGION.  TEMPERATURES
WILL BE COOLER FOR THE WEEKEND AS WE SEE TEMPERATURES STRUGGLING TO
GET OUT OF THE 70S BY SUNDAY.

THE SURFACE HIGH IS EXPECTED TO DRIFT TO THE EAST OF THE CWFA BY
SATURDAY EVENING TO BRING DECENT RETURN FLOW BACK TO THE CWFA FOR
THE WORK WEEK. THIS SHOULD BRING A DECENT WARMUP OVER THE CWFA BY
THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK...WHICH WILL GIVE A RETURN OF THE HIGHS IN
THE 80S. ALSO THIS RETURN FLOW WILL BRING A DECENT INCREASE IN
MOISTURE TO THE CWFA FOR THE LATE WEEKEND AND ESPECIALLY INTO NEXT
WEEK.  SOUTHERLY SURFACE WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE
WORK WEEK.  IN THE MEANTIME WE SEE ZONAL TO SWLY FLOW ALOFT THROUGH
MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK.  A SERIES OF IMPULSES PASSING THROUGH THIS
UPPER FLOW WILL COMBINE WITH THE ABUNDANCE OF MOISTURE OVER THE
REGION TO BRING DECENT RAIN CHANCES THROUGH THE WORK WEEK.  THERE
WILL BE AN UPPER RIDGE OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO TO THE SOUTH OF THE
CWFA...BUT FOR NOW IT IS BELIEVED THAT IT SHOULD REMAIN TOO FAR
SOUTH TO HAVE ANY EFFECT ON KEEPING RAIN AWAY FROM THE CWFA.  SO THE
MAIN CONCERN FOR NEXT WEEK WILL BE THE CONTINUED RAIN CHANCES
AND...IF THIS OCCURS...ANY FLOODING PROBLEMS THAT MAY DEVELOP AS A
RESULT.  THIS WILL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED AS THERE ARE
STILL INCONSISTENCIES BETWEEN MODELS ON HOW NEXT WEEK WILL PAN OUT.
OVERALL HAVE MADE FEW CHANGES TO THE FORECAST IN THE EXTENDED AS A
RESULT. /22/

AVIATION...
FRONT AS OF 18Z WAS LOCATED NEAR A TSA...ABI LINE AND CONTINUES TO
MAKE QUICK PROGRESS EASTWARD. IN FACT...THE EASTWARD MOVEMENT IS
SLIGHTLY AHEAD OF FCST MODEL MOVEMENT SO HAVE ACCOUNTED FOR THIS IN
THE 18Z TAF PACKAGE. AHEAD OF THE FRONT...WE CONTINUE TO SEE
SCATTERED SHOWERS ALONG A NARROW CORRIDOR EXTENDING FROM EASTERN OK
INTO NE AND CENTRAL TEXAS. THIS ACTIVITY HAS MADE SLOW BUT STEADY
PROGRESS EASTWARD THIS AFTERNOON. ELSEWHERE...AHEAD OF THE ACTIVITY
WELL INTO THE WARM SECTOR WERE DEVELOPING ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS SE TX WHICH WERE MOVING NORTH IN AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE
AIRMASS. WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR THIS ISOLATED ACTIVITY INTO SE TX
MOVING INTO THE LFK TERMINAL LATER THIS AFTERNOON EVENING.  EVENTUAL
EVOLUTION OF THE WEATHER FOR THE NEXT 12HRS OR SO IS FOR THE COLD
FRONT TO CATCH UP TO THE PRE FRONTAL ACTIVITY WITH STORM MODE
EVENTUALLY EXHIBITING A SQUALL LINE OR BOWING SEGMENTS DEVELOPING
ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND DEVELOPING SOUTHWESTWARD DOWN THE
FRONTAL CONVERGENCE ZONE INTO NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS.

THUS...HAVE CEILINGS COMING DOWN TO MVFR/IFR WITH VRB WIND GUSTS IN
ANTICIPATION OF EASTWARD MOVING SQUALL LINE THROUGH THE NIGHT.
QUICKLY BRING POST FRONTAL CEILINGS UP WITH SKIES QUICKLY CLEARING
FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST TOWARDS SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING. /13/
