What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 10, 11:32 PM CDT, 1 hour 17 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 10, 11:32 PM CDT, 1 hour 17 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
1132 PM CDT SUN APR 10 2011

.UPDATE...
THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WILL SPREAD EASTWARD OVERNIGHT WITH THE
APPROACH OF AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. A PREVIOUS UPDATE WAS
DONE TO INCREASE THE POPS ACROSS THE AREAS EAST OF I-35. THE 00Z
NAM AND 01Z HRRR /HIGH RESOLUTION RAPID REFRESH/ MODEL INDICATE
THAT THE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CISCO TO SOUTHWEST OF JUNCTION WILL
MOVE EAST/NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTH TEXAS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS.

58

&&

.PREV UPDATE...
.UPDATE...
WILL UPDATE TO ADD SOME POPS ONE ROW OF COUNTIES FARTHER WEST
SINCE REFLECTIVITY STARTING TO APPEAR IN JACK COUNTY. 84

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 340 PM CDT SUN APR 10 2011/
IT WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATE TO CALL THE SURFACE BOUNDARY THAT HAS
ENTERED OUR NW CWA A WEAK COLD FRONT AND NOT A DRY LINE...AS
PRESSURE RISES HAVE BEEN OCCURRING BEHIND IT WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER
AIR ADVECTING SE. THIS WEAK FRONT IS NOW STALLING ALONG A LINE FROM
NEAR GAINESVILLE TO MINERAL WELLS TO BROWNWOOD. MEANWHILE A
POSITIVE TILT UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE PLAINS
TONIGHT WITH PV AT THE BASE OF THE TROUGH PROVIDING STRONG FORCING
ACROSS OUR REGION. MUCH OF THIS FORCING WILL BE SPENT REMOVING
THE CAP...BUT AS THE WARMER AIR IS LIFTED ALOFT...MID LEVEL LAPSE
RATES WILL SUBSEQUENTLY WEAKEN. CIN SHOULD ERODE ALONG THE FRONT
BY SUNSET AND EXPECT SCATTERED CONVECTION TO DEVELOP THEREAFTER.

THERE WILL BE A SMALL CORRIDOR AND LIMITED TIME WINDOW WHEN
SURFACE BASED CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE. SURFACED BASED CONVECTION
WILL POSE THE GREATEST RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER TONIGHT AS IT WILL
HAVE THE HIGHER INSTABILITY TO WORK WITH. THIS THREAT IS POSSIBLE
/BUT NOT PROBABLE/ ROUGHLY 20 MILES EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM
CLEBURNE TO SHERMAN...AND BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 6 AND 9 PM.
OTHERWISE EXPECT MOST OF THE CONVECTION TO BE PRIMARILY ELEVATED
THIS EVENING...WITH UNSTABLE PARCELS GENERALLY ORIGINATING IN THE
750-800 MB LAYER. THESE PARCELS WILL CONTAIN CAPE VALUES AROUND
500-1000J/KG...SO NOT OVERLY HIGH. DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS VERY
STRONG...AND THUS ISOLATED SUPERCELLS WILL BE POSSIBLE EVEN IF
THEY ARE SLIGHTLY ELEVATED. THE CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS ALONG THE
FRONT SHOULD HEAD EAST AND INTO A REGION OF HIGHER CIN ACROSS THE
EASTERN ZONES AND LIKELY WEAKEN AND PERHAPS DISSIPATE AS STORMS
OUT-RUN THE UPPER LEVEL FORCING. THIS IS WHAT THE RUC/HRRR HAS
BEEN INDICATING. THUS THE BEST POPS AND HIGHEST QPF WILL BE IN A
BAND BISECTING THE CWA FROM SW TO NE...OR JUST EAST OF THE STALLED
FRONT. LATER TONIGHT A PLUME OF HIGHER MOISTURE ALOFT SHOULD
PROVIDE FOR SOME CLOUD COVER AND LIGHT SHOWERS BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT. IN THE DRIER AIR MASS BEHIND THE COLD FRONT...MUCH OF THIS
WILL EVAPORATE...BUT DO HAVE LOW POPS THERE AS WELL. ALL RAIN
SHOULD CLEAR THE AREA WEST TO EAST LATE TONIGHT...BUT WILL HAVE
SOME LOW POPS IN THE FAR EAST EARLY MON AM.

GENERALLY SUNNY SKIES AND MODEST NW WINDS ARE EXPECTED MONDAY WITH
COOLER HIGH TEMPERATURES. SURFACE RIDGE WILL SIT OVER NORTH TEXAS
MONDAY NIGHT AND EXCELLENT RADIATIONAL COOLING SHOULD BRING LOW
TEMPS DOWN INTO THE 40S FOR MOST LOCATIONS OUTSIDE OF THE URBAN
HEAT ISLAND. ANOTHER NICE DAY IS EXPECTED TUESDAY AS WINDS QUIETLY
SWING AROUND TO THE SOUTHEAST. STRONGER SOUTH WINDS AND MORE
MOISTURE/WARMER TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. NEXT UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE PLAINS
THURSDAY AND PUSH A FRONT THROUGH HERE THURSDAY EVENING. MOISTURE
LOOKS A BIT TOO LIMITED FOR ANY GOOD RAIN WITH THIS SYSTEM...AND
WILL CONTINUE WITH VERY LOW POPS EAST OF I-35.

LOOKING AT THE BROADER FLOW IT APPEARS A PATTERN CHANGE WILL OCCUR
WITH THE MAIN UPPER HIGHS/LOWS SHIFTING POSITIONS ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HEMISPHERE. THIS LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BRING SOME COOLER AIR
INTO THE REGION FOR A FEW DAYS FRIDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
WHETHER THIS PATTERN CHANGE RESULTS IN ANY BETTER CHANCES OF RAIN
REMAINS TO BE SEEN.
