.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1208 AM CST FRI FEB 3 2012/

AVIATION...
FOR THE 06Z TAFS...SURFACE LOW WAS ENTERING THE LOW ROLLING PLAINS
TONIGHT WHILE A 50 KT LOW-LEVEL JET WAS STARTING TO STRENGTHEN ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THIS WILL SUSTAIN THE ONGOING LINE OF STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN
PANHANDLES. THINKING CONVECTION WILL STAY EAST OF THE KAMA TERMINAL
BUT WILL AMEND IF ADDITIONAL STORMS DEVELOP AND MOVE OVER THE
TERMINAL. OTHERWISE SOUTHEAST SURFACE WINDS WILL KEEP ABUNDANT LOW-
LEVEL MOISTURE NEAR THE SURFACE WITH MVFR TO LIFR CIGS OVERNIGHT. ALTHOUGH
EARLIER AREAS OF FOG HAVE DISSIPATED WHEN STORMS ROLLED ACROSS THE
KAMA TERMINAL...THINK FOG WILL DEVELOP AGAIN CAUSING VISIBYS TO
DETERIORATE TO IFR. FOG SHOULD START TO LIFT FRI MORNING WITH
CONDITIONS RETURNING TO VFR AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES INTO THE PANHANDLES
AND DRIER AIR MOVES IN. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE DURING THE DAY
FRI WITH SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 15-20 KTS AND GUSTS UP TO NEAR 30 KTS.

AT KDHT/KGUY...A COLD FRONT HAS PUSHED THROUGH THE TERMINALS WITH
SURFACE WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH-NORTHWEST. THIS SHOULD KEEP ANY
CONVECTION OVERNIGHT EAST OF THE TERMINALS. HOWEVER MVFR AND IFR
CIGS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT AS LOW CLOUDS MOVE ACROSS. CONDITIONS ARE
NOT EXPECTED TO RETURN TO VFR DUE TO WRAP AROUND LOW CLOUDS
ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW. ISOLD SHOWERS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE
PARTICUARILY AT KGUY SO HAVE INSERTED VCSH REMARK FRI AFTERNOON. NORTH
TO NORTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE FRIDAY WITH SUSTAINED WIND SPEEDS
15-25 KTS AND GUSTS UP TO NEAR 35 KTS.

UPDATE...
CURRENT RADAR REFLECTIVITY IMAGERY IS INDICATING A LINE OF STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS
PANHANDLE WITH AN AREA OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST TX
PANHANDLE. THE 00Z KAMA SOUNDING SHOWS A PRETTY SHALLOW MOIST LAYER
BETWEEN 850-825 MB WITH DRY AIR ALOFT CORRESPONDING TO A DRY SLOT
THAT WAS MOVING ACROSS THE AREA AT LAUNCH TIME. THE SOUTHWEST TX
PANHANDLE APPEARS TO BE CAPPED ALTHOUGH THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THIS
AREA CAN BREAK THE CAP IF DEWPOINTS CONTINUE TO INCH UP AS THEY HAVE
BEEN THIS EVENING. HOWEVER NOT TOO CONFIDENT THAT THIS WILL OCCUR
WITH THE ASOS REPORTING LIGHT FOG. A 50 KT LOW-LEVEL JET WILL CRANK
UP LATE TONIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS HELPING TO TRANSPORT
ADDITIONAL MOISTURE INTO THE EASTERN TX PANHANDLE WHILE INCREASING
THE INSTABILITY. THE ONGOING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN TX PANHANDLE WILL CONTINUE UNTIL 3 AM CST WITH
LARGE VALUES OF SHEAR SUPPORTING LARGE HAIL AS THE MAIN THREAT AS
EXPECT STORMS WILL BE ELEVATED. HAVE A SMALL CONCERN FOR TORNADOES IN
THE SOUTHEAST TX PANHANDLE WHERE A STORM OR TWO CAN BECOME SURFACE
BASED...BUT THINKING CHANCES OF THIS OCCURRING ARE PRETTY SLIM.

A COLD FRONT HAS STARTED ENTERING THE WESTERN OK PANHANDLE AND THE
NORTHWEST TX PANHANDLE...WITH MUCH DRIER AIR MOVING IN AS DEW POINTS
HAVE FALLEN BACK INTO THE 30S. AS SUCH THE CONVECTIVE THREAT HAS
ENDED IN THIS AREA.

CLK

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 614 PM CST THU FEB 2 2012/

AVIATION...
FOR THE 00Z TAFS...MAIN FOCUS FOR THIS FORECAST CENTERS ON CONVECTION
CHANCES THROUGH THE NEXT 6 HOURS.

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE EJECTING AHEAD OF AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW OVER
NORTHERN NEW MEXICO HAS TRIGGERED SCT TSRA IN THE WESTERN TX/OK
PANHANDLES. AT THE SURFACE...A DRYLINE HAS MIXED INTO THE FAR WESTERN
PANHANDLES WHERE DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 40S WERE COMMON EAST OF
THE DRYLINE. EXPECT THE DRYLINE TO RETREAT SOON BACK INTO NM LEAVING
A SMALL WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR CONVECTION TO FURTHER
DEVELOP/SPREAD ACROSS THE WESTERN PANHANDLES. FOR NOW JUST HAVE VCTS
MENTION IN THE TAFS BUT WILL UPDATE TO A PREVAILING TSRA IF IT LOOKS
LIKE STORMS WILL DIRECTLY THREATEN THE TERMINALS. FURTHER EAST...A 50
KT LOW- LEVEL JET WILL CRANK UP ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...
TRANSPORTING MORE GULF MOISTURE INTO THE PANHANDLES. THIS WILL SERVE
AS A BETTER FOCUS FOR CONVECTION LATER THIS EVENING SO HAVE TSRA
ENDING AROUND 03-04Z AT THE TERMINALS. SHOULD SEE CLOUDS LOWER TO
MVFR AND IFR LATER TONIGHT WITH AREAS OF LIGHT FOG REDUCING VISBYS TO
1 TO 3 MILES DUE TO ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE. A SURFACE
LOW WILL MOVE ACROSS THE TX PANHANDLE OVERNIGHT WITH A COLD FRONT
PUSHING INTO THE AREA. AHEAD OF THIS WINDS WILL VEER FROM THE
SOUTHEAST TO THE SOUTHWEST LATE TONIGHT. ONCE THE FRONT PUSHES
THROUGH...WINDS WILL FURTHER VEER AROUND TO THE NORTHWEST. CAN SEE A
FEW WRAP AROUND RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS MAINLY AT THE KGUY TERMINAL BUT
CONFIDENCE IN THIS OCCURRING IS PRETTY LOW. DRIER AIR WILL WORK ITS
WAY INTO THE AREA RESULTING IN VFR CONDITIONS RETURNING AROUND 18Z
FRIDAY.

DISCUSSION...
UPPER LOW OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION THIS AFTERNOON WILL TRACK
EASTWARD ACROSS NORTHERN NEW MEXICO TONIGHT AND THEN ACROSS THE
OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE AND SOUTHWESTERN OR WESTERN KANSAS FRIDAY. LOW
LEVEL SOUTHEASTERLY JET AROUND 25 TO 35 KNOTS WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT
PLENTY OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INTO THE PANHANDLES TODAY AND TONIGHT.
LEADING SHORTWAVE ENERGY AHEAD OF THE UPPER LOW HAS BEGUN TRIGGERING
MAINLY SHOWERS ALONG WITH A THUNDERSTORM OR TWO ACROSS THE OKLAHOMA
PANHANDLE...AND ALSO THE NORTHERN...CENTRAL AND EASTERN TEXAS
PANHANDLE THIS AFTERNOON. EXPECTING CONVECTION TO CONTINUE TO
INCREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE AND INTENSITY LATER TODAY AND EARLY
TONIGHT AS BETTER UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS AND INSTABILITY FORECAST OVER
THE PANHANDLES. GREATEST PRECIP CHANCES OVER THE NORTHERN HALF AND
THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH TONIGHT...WHICH SHIFTS
EASTWARD FRIDAY MORNING TO THE EXTREME NORTHERN AND EASTERN SECTIONS
OF THE PANHANDLES. WRAP AROUND PRECIP AS THE UPPER LOW CONTINUES
TRACKING EASTWARD ACROSS KANSAS SHOULD AFFECT THE NORTHERN PANHANDLES
FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING BEFORE EXITING THE FORECAST AREA LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE UPPER LOW LIFTS NORTH AND EAST FURTHER AWAY FROM
THE PANHANDLES. COLD FRONT TO PUSH THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY
USHERING IN COLD AIR ADVECTION ON BREEZY TO WINDY NORTHERLY WINDS.

MUCH COOLER SATURDAY DUE TO CONTINUED STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS AND
CLOUD COVER WITH DECREASING CLOUDINESS BY SUNDAY. SURFACE HIGH TO
BUILD IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT THIS WEEKEND BRINGING MUCH DRIER AIR
INTO THE PANHANDLES. GFS MAINLY...BUT THE ECMWF ALSO TO SOME
EXTENT...FORECASTING NORTHERN STREAM SYSTEM TRACKING ACROSS THE
CENTRAL ROCKIES TUESDAY AND POSSIBLY SOME PRECIP OVER THE NORTHERN
HALF OF THE PANHANDLES. DECIDED NOT TO INTRODUCE ANY POPS AT THIS
TIME...HOWEVER LATER SHIFTS WILL NEED TO WATCH CLOSELY. MODERATING
TEMPS THE MIDDLE AND END OF NEXT WEEK AND FORECASTING DRY CONDITIONS
FOR NOW.

FIRE WEATHER...
NO ELEVATED OR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THROUGH THE MIDDLE AND
END OF NEXT WEEK. MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITIES FORECAST TO BE GREATER
THAN 20 PERCENT THROUGH THE PERIOD EVEN THOUGH 20 FOOT WINDS MAY
REACH OR EXCEED 20 MPH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...WITH SPEEDS LESS THAN 15
TO 20 MPH SUNDAY THROUGH THE END OF NEXT WEEK.
