AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AMARILLO TX
610 PM CDT THU JUN 14 2012

.AVIATION...
UPPER TROUGH WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE PANHANDLES THIS EVENING
PRODUCING CONVECTION AT ALL THREE TAF SITES THROUGH ABOUT 06Z FRIDAY.
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL OUTSIDE OF THE CONVECTION...WITH MVFR
CONDITIONS IN AND NEAR THE CONVECTION. IFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE AT THE GUYMON TAF SITE BETWEEN 10Z AND 16Z FRIDAY AS A COLD

THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE. WINDS WILL BE PRIMARILY SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST
10 TO 20 KNOTS WITH SOME HIGHER GUSTS...HOWEVER WINDS WILL BECOME
NORTHWESTERLY TO NORTHEASTERLY BEHIND THE FRONT AT BOTH THE DALHART

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 450 PM CDT THU JUN 14 2012/

DISCUSSION...
OF PRIMARY CONCERN THIS EVENING...AS OF 4 PM THUNDERSTORMS HAD BEGUN
TO DEVELOP ALONG A COLD FRONT NEAR THE WESTERN OKLAHOMA
PANHANDLE...AND ALSO ALONG A DRYLINE IN THE WESTERN TEXAS PANHANDLE.
THIS THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE AND SPREAD EAST
THROUGH TONIGHT AS AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS THE
PANHANDLES. SOME OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE STRONG TO SEVERE.

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...MOSTLY ZONAL FLOW ACROSS THE US WILL BEGIN
TO DESTABILIZE...WITH AN UPPER LEVEL LOW CUTTING OFF OVER THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST AND RETROGRADING OVER THE PACIFIC. WARM TEMPERATURES AND A
SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE PANHANDLES. A
COLD FRONT SHOULD EDGE INTO THE WESTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWESTERN
TEXAS PANHANDLES SATURDAY NIGHT...BRINGING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ONCE AGAIN TO THAT AREA.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THE COLD FRONT WILL PULL NORTHWARD DURING
THE DAY ON SUNDAY...AS LEE SIDE CYCLOGENESIS STRENGTHENS. CONTINUED
TO KEEP MAX TEMPS ABOVE GUIDANCE INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS SOUTHERLY
WINDS AND A BUILDING UPPER LEVEL RIDGE ALLOW FOR TEMPERATURES TO
REACH INTO THE UPPER 90S AND LOWER 100S. NO MENTIONABLE POPS AT THIS
TIME.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...A DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM IN THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES SHOULD PULL A COLD FRONT INTO AT
LEAST THE FAR NORTHWEST PANHANDLES WEDNESDAY NIGHT. MODELS DISAGREE
SLIGHTLY AS TO HOW STRONG THIS FRONT WILL BE...SO DECIDED TO GO WITH
THE STRONGER GFS. DID NOT INTRODUCE POPS AT THIS TIME AS CONFIDENCE
IS LOW...THOUGH SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ALONG THE
FRONT IF IT STALLS ACROSS THE AREA ON THURSDAY.

NF

FIRE WEATHER...
DESPITE RELATIVE HUMIDITIES DROPPING BELOW 20 PERCENT ACROSS WESTERN
PORTIONS OF THE PANHANDLES DURING THE AFTERNOONS THROUGH
TUESDAY...20 FOOT WIND SPEEDS SHOULD BE LESS THAN 15 MPH DURING THE
AFTERNOONS. ALSO...RECENT AND EXPECTED RAINFALL HAS KEPT FUEL
MOISTURE HIGHER AND FIRE DANGER RATINGS AT LOW TO MODERATE ACROSS THE
PANHANDLES.
