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 May 30, 1:17 PM CDT, 1 hour 56 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 30, 1:17 PM CDT, 1 hour 56 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 117 PM CDT WED MAY 30 2012 .AVIATION... AN AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA FROM AROUND KGLE...KDTO...KDAL EASTWARD THROUGH 20Z. EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO FORM ALONG THE DRYLINE WEST OF A CHILDRESS... ABILENE...SAN ANGELO LINE LATE THIS AFTERNOON...AND THESE STORMS WILL MOVE EAST SOUTHEAST THROUGH THIS EVENING. SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY MAY AFFECT THE METROPLEX TAF SITES AFTER 02Z...AS NOTED BY THE VCTS/TEMPO TSRA BETWEEN 02Z AND 06Z. ANOTHER COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS OKLAHOMA LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THESE STORMS WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST AND MAY AFFECT THE AIRPORT AFTER 09Z. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE METROPLEX TAF SITES 15-16Z...WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH AT AROUND 15 KNOTS WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE. 58 && .UPDATE... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER THE NORTHEASTERN QUADRANT OF THE CWA THIS MORNING. WITH SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT MOVING INTO THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON...WE EXPECT TO SEE A BREAK IN THE RAIN ACTIVITY FOR MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO MOVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE CWA. THIS OUTFLOW BOUNDARY LIES ROUGHLY ALONG A LINE FROM ATHENS TO NORTH OF WACO AND THEN NORTHWEST TOWARDS GRAHAM. WITH THE ATMOSPHERE STILL UNSTABLE AND UNCAPPED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND WESTERN COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON...THIS BOUNDARY COULD PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR LIFT WITH ISOLATED TO SCATTERED STORMS DEVELOPING IN THE VICINITY OF THIS BOUNDARY LATER THIS AFTERNOON. REGARDING STORM POTENTIAL FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS...THERE ARE TWO POSSIBLE SCENARIOS THAT COULD UNFOLD LATER TODAY. FIRST...THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO INITIATE THIS AFTERNOON ALONG THE DRYLINE IN THE TEXAS PANHANDLE AND WESTERN OKLAHOMA. THESE STORMS WILL BE AIDED BY LARGE SCALE LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE AND WILL FORM IN AN ENVIRONMENT FAVORABLE FOR ROTATING SUPERCELLS. THESE STORMS COULD EVOLVE INTO A LINEAR MCS THAT REACHES NORTH TEXAS TONIGHT. THE OTHER SCENARIO INVOLVES ANOTHER MCS DEVELOPING ALONG A STATIONARY FRONT THAT CURRENTLY LIES ACROSS OKLAHOMA. THIS MCS COULD ALSO MARCH SOUTH CROSSING THE RED RIVER LATE TONIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. WITH ONE OR BOTH OF THESE SCENARIOS POSSIBLE...HAVE ADJUSTED POPS FOR THIS EVENING TO INCREASE THE POPS IN THE WEST. THE INHERITED HIGH POPS ALONG THE RED RIVER TONIGHT LOOK REASONABLE AT THIS TIME. SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH BOTH SCENARIOS. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE UPDATE...SEVERAL ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO THE SKY AND WIND TRENDS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY BASED ON CURRENT OBSERVATIONS AND TRENDS. ALSO...ADJUSTED HIGH TEMPERATURES DOWN SEVERAL DEGREES IN THE NORTHEAST AND EASTERN COUNTIES OF THE CWA AND A FEW DEGREES ELSEWHERE. 82/JLD && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 346 AM CDT WED MAY 30 2012/ A COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE MOVING SOUTHEAST OUT OF SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA EARLY THIS MORNING. MID LEVEL INSTABILITY WILL REMAIN HIGH AND RESULT IN THE SOME SEVERE STORMS. THE PRIMARY HAZARD FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE LARGE HAIL SINCE THEY WILL REMAIN NORTH OF A STRONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SHOULD BEGIN TO LOOSE ITS SOUTHWARD PUSH LATER THIS MORNING AND RETREAT NORTHWARD THROUGH THE DAY AS SURFACE LOW PRESSURE DEEPENS ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS. THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SHOULD BE A SOURCE FOR ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. HIGH INSTABILITY AND FAVORABLE WIND SHEAR WILL RESULT IN SOME SUPERCELL STORMS WITH A POTENTIAL FOR HAIL... DOWNBURST WINDS AND EVEN SOME ISOLATED TORNADOES AS SURFACE WINDS BACK WITH THE RETREATING BOUNDARY. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING WILL BE NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR...BUT THE THREAT AREA WILL ALL HINGE ON HOW FAR NORTH THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY RETREATS. ANOTHER COMPLEX OF STORMS IS LIKELY TO FORM IN OKLAHOMA TONIGHT AS A SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND ALLOWS A COLD FRONT TO PROPAGATE SOUTHWARD. THE BEST CHANCE OF STORMS OVERNIGHT WILL BE ACROSS THE NORTHEAST ZONES WITH STORM CHANCES SHIFTING TO THE EAST/SOUTHEAST ON THURSDAY. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT/THURSDAY. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL END FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST THURSDAY AS DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIR MOVES IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE WESTERN CONUS LATE IN THE WEEK THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND KEEP NORTH TEXAS IN NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. OVERALL THE FORECAST SHOULD BE DRY FROM THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. HOWEVER...THERE IS A CHANCE FOR A FEW STORMS THAT DEVELOP ON THE HIGH PLAINS FRIDAY NIGHT TO REACH THE NORTHWEST ZONES SATURDAY. FOR NOW WE WILL KEEP SATURDAY POPS AT 10 PERCENT BUT WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THIS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TODAY WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS MAINLY IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 90S. TEMPERATURES THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WILL BE CONSIDERABLY COOLER WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE 80S AND LOWS IN THE 50S AND 60S. BUILDING UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE AND INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL RESULT IN WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH HIGHS IN THE 90S. 79 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... DALLAS-FT.
