AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
759 PM CDT FRI AUG 17 2012

.AVIATION...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM JUST N OF KNFW TO NEAR
KGKY TO KLNC WERE MOVING E AT 10 TO 15 MPH. HAVE KEPT TSRA AT
KFTW...KGKY AND KDFW THROUGH 02Z. OTHER STORMS TO THE NORTHEAST
FROM 10 MILES NW OF TKI TO 10 MILES W OF KSLR SHOULD BE MOVE ESE
AND NOT REACH THE METROPLEX TAF SITES. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED
TO WEAKEN LATER THIS EVENING. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
ARE EXPECTED AGAIN SATURDAY AFTERNOON SO HAVE LEFT VCTS IN THE TAFS
FOR THE 17Z THROUGH 00Z PERIOD.

AT WACO....THUNDERSTORMS TO THE NORTHWEST OF WACO MAY WEAKEN BEFORE
REACHING THE AIRPORT. THUS HAVE JUST PLACED VCSH THROUGH 03Z. SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALSO EXPECTED SATURDAY AFTERNOON...SO AS WITH THE
METROPLEX TAFS...HAVE LEFT VCTS IN FOR THE 17Z THROUGH 00Z PERIOD.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 407 PM CDT FRI AUG 17 2012/

SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATED A STATIONARY FRONT IN PLACE EXTENDING
FROM THE TX PANHANDLE EAST THROUGH SOUTHERN OK. THERE WAS ALSO A
DIFFUSE BOUNDARY IN PLACE OVER NORTH TX BEST DEFINED AS A LINE OF
CONVERGENCE EXTENDING FROM SHERMAN SOUTHWEST THROUGH DENTON AND
WEATHERFORD AND THEN THROUGH CISCO BEFORE ARCING WEST TOWARDS
ABILENE. THE AIR TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THIS BOUNDARY HAS SLIGHTLY
HIGHER DEW POINT READINGS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...BUT DOES NOT
EXHIBIT ANY STRONG GRADIENTS IN THE TEMPERATURE AND MOISTURE
FIELDS. REGARDLESS...EARLY AFTERNOON VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY
INDICATES THAT THIS LINE OF CONVERGENCE IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
MOST ACTIVE CUMULUS FIELD IN THE REGION...THEREFORE EXPECT THAT
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO INITIATE ALONG THIS
BOUNDARY LATER THIS AFTERNOON. THE EARLIER OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT
WAS IN PLACE OVER THE FAR SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA HAS ESSENTIALLY WASHED OUT. LATE THIS MORNING THIS BOUNDARY
HAD BETTER DEFINITION AND IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO PLAY AN
IMPORTANT ROLE IN INITIATING STORMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON BUT
APPARENTLY THE COOL OUTFLOW WAS TOO SHALLOW TO HOLD TOGETHER
AFTER A FEW HOURS OF DAYTIME HEATING.

LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT...EXPECT THAT SCATTERED STORMS
WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ALONG THE WEAK WIND SHIFT/CONVERGENCE LINE
IN PLACE OVER THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF NORTH TX LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS. THAT SAID...THE GREATEST INSTABILITY
ACTUALLY LIES OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH
LOCALLY CALCULATED CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS INDICATING THE PRESENCE
OF OVER 2000 J/KG OF CAPE FOR MOST LOCATIONS ALONG AND EAST OF THE
INTERSTATE 35 CORRIDOR. THEREFORE CANNOT RULE OUT SOME PULSE TYPE
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS ALL OF NORTH TX LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH
BROAD LOW LEVEL ISENTROPIC LIFT AND AMPLE HEATING IN PLACE ACROSS
MUCH OF THE CWA. DEEP LAYER SHEAR REMAINS VERY WEAK OVER THE
REGION...THEREFORE DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF AMPLE AMOUNTS OF CAPE
FOR SEVERE WEATHER...AN ORGANIZED STORM MODE IS UNLIKELY THROUGH
SUNSET. PULSE TYPE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DOWNBURST
WINDS AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE
POSSIBLE AS WELL AS THE 12Z FWD SOUNDING OBSERVED A 1.85 PWAT
INDICATING THE PRESENCE OF DEEP MOISTURE IN PLACE OVER THE REGION.

KEPT A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST FOR ALL OF NORTH TX
TONIGHT. THINK THAT STORMS ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP ALONG THE
STRONGER STATIONARY BOUNDARY IN PLACE IN SOUTHERN OK AND THEN MOVE
SOUTHEAST IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE IN
THIS SCENARIO PANNING OUT IS FAIRLY HIGH AS THERE IS SUFFICIENT
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY IN PLACE TO ALLOW FOR NOCTURNAL
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ALONG THE FRONT TONIGHT. THE PRIMARY
FORECAST PROBLEMS FOR NORTH TX ARE DETERMINING THE TIMING AND
PLACEMENT OF THIS ACTIVITY ACROSS THE CWA. IF THIS ACTIVITY IS
WELL ORGANIZED IT COULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON THE EVOLUTION OF
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ON SATURDAY.

SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...NEARLY ALL GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT A
FAST MOVING SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST FROM THE
NORTHWESTERN CONUS AND OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS BY SATURDAY
EVENING. AS THIS SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHES...IT WILL INDUCE
LARGE SCALE FORCING FOR ASCENT OVER NORTH TX. THIS SHOWS UP NICELY
AS H925 TO H700 WARM AIR ADVECTION...OR ISENTROPIC LIFT IF
LOOKING AT POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE SURFACES IN THIS LAYER. WHILE
THIS FORCING IS NOT OVERLY STRONG...IT IS PERSISTENT AND GUIDANCE
IS FAIRLY CONSISTENT IN ADVERTISING 2 INCH PWATS WITH LITTLE
INHIBITION FOR FREE CONVECTION. WITH LITTLE CAP IN PLACE AND A
BROAD FORCING MECHANISM...THINK THAT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY WILL DEVELOP ACROSS NORTH TX BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
THROUGH SUNSET...THE BIGGEST THREAT IS LIKELY LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND FLOODING WITH VERY WEAK STORM RELATIVE FLOW ALOFT AND
HIGH PWAT VALUES IN PLACE. AFTER SUNSET...ASSUMING THE ATMOSPHERE
IS NOT COMPLETELY STABILIZED/WORKED OVER...DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND
FORCING INCREASE IN MAGNITUDE ACROSS THE NORTHEASTERN CWA.

SATURDAY NIGHT...THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
SOUTHEAST OVER OKLAHOMA INCREASING THE WINDS ALOFT BY 15 TO 20
KTS OVER THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE CWA. MODELS CONTINUE TO
INDICATE WELL OVER 2000 J/KG OF MOST UNSTABLE CAPE OVER THE
NORTHEASTERN CWA AS THIS SHORTWAVE GETS CLOSEST TO NORTH TX IN THE
00-06Z TIMEFRAME. THIS HAS A FEW HIGH RESOLUTION GUIDANCE MEMBERS
INDICATING THE POTENTIAL FOR ELEVATED SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS
GENERALLY NORTHEAST OF THE METROPLEX SATURDAY EVENING. OF COURSE
THIS MAY BE GREATLY OVERDONE IF NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
RELEASE SUFFICIENT LATENT HEAT ALOFT TO DIMINISH MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES AND ELEVATED INSTABILITY AFTER SUNSET. BECAUSE THIS FORECAST
IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON THUNDERSTORM EVOLUTION TONIGHT (FRIDAY
NIGHT) AND SATURDAY THIS MAY CHANGE QUITE A BIT IN 24 HRS. HOWEVER
IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT THERE IS AN ENHANCED POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
WEATHER OVER THE NORTHERN THIRD OF THE CWA (INCLUDING THE DFW
METROPLEX) SATURDAY EVENING IF THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIMITED IN
COVERAGE EARLIER IN THE DAY.

SUNDAY...WITH THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH EXITING TO THE EAST...MOST
GUIDANCE SENDS THE SOUTHERN OK COLD FRONT DOWN THROUGH NORTH TX
BEGINNING SUNDAY MORNING. 12Z UPPER AIR ANALYSIS INDICATED A 10
DEG C THERMAL GRADIENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT...SO THERE WILL
LIKELY BE SOME STRONG FORCING FOR ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
BOUNDARY AS IT MOVES SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA. IF THIS IS A GOOD
ASSUMPTION THEN THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY
ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. WITH THE FRONT MOVING
SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING DO NOT THINK STORMS WILL BE
SEVERE AS THEY MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. IF THE FRONT IS SLOWER THIS
MAY CHANGE. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT OVER THE
SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY EVENING AND
LEFT SOME SMALL CHANCE POPS IN THE FORECAST NEAR THE FRONT SUNDAY
NIGHT AS A RESULT.

NEXT WEEK...DRIER AIR IS EXPECTED TO FILTER IN BEHIND THE FRONT
BEGINNING MONDAY. THIS DRY AIR IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN IN PLACE FOR
MUCH OF THE WEEK...THEREFORE MAINTAINED A DRY FORECAST AT THIS
TIME. THE ECMWF HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY BRINGING A STRONG SHORTWAVE
TROUGH OVER NORTH TX TUESDAY EVENING...IF THIS PANS OUT IT WILL
LIKELY WARRANT SOME MENTION OF POPS IN LATER FORECASTS. THE GFS IS
MUCH WEAKER WITH THIS FEATURE AT THIS TIME. MOISTURE WILL START TO
RETURN TO THE REGION LATE IN THE WEEK AS SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW
RETURNS TO NORTH TX.
