AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN ANGELO TX
345 PM CDT TUE JUN 5 2012

.SHORT TERM...
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WAS LOCATED BETWEEN LUBBOCK AND CHILDRESS.
SCATTERED TSTMS WERE DEVELOPING ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE LOW OVER
THE TEXAS PANHANDLE. ISOLD TSTMS WERE LOCATED OVER SOUTHWEST
OKLAHOMA. NOT MUCH HAPPENING ACROSS WEST CENTRAL TEXAS...BESIDES
HOT AND DRY. TEMPERATURES WERE IN THE 90S ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA...WITH UPPER 90S AT JUNCTION. A WEAK DISSIPATING OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY WAS JUST SOUTH OF A MERTZON TO SAN ANGELO TO BROWNWOOD
LINE. THE CU ON VISIBLE SATELLITE DOES NOT LOOK IMPRESSIVE ALONG
THIS BOUNDARY RIGHT NOW. HOWEVER...ISOLD TO WDLY SCATTERED TSTMS
MAY DEVELOP DURING THE NEXT FEW HOURS. HAVE GONE WITH CHC POPS
ACROSS MAINLY THE BIG COUNTRY TONIGHT. THERE IS AN OUTSIDE CHANCE
THAT A SMALL MCS MAY MOVE INTO THIS AREA MAINLY AFTER 03Z WED.
LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S.

FOR WEDNESDAY...WILL KEEP THE CHC POPS ACROSS THE AREA...MAINLY
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. THERE IS A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY ON THE
COVERAGE OF SHWRS AND TSTMS DUE TO WEAK UPPER LEVEL FORCING.
HOWEVER...ABUNDANT MOISTURE...SOME MODERATE INSTABILITY ALONG WITH
A FEW WEAK OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL LEAD TO THE POSSIBILITY OF
TSTMS. HOWEVER...HAVE RAISED THE HIGH TEMPERATURES A FEW
DEGREES...WITH READINGS IN THE UPPER 80S ACROSS THE BIG COUNTRY TO
LOWER 90S ELSEWHERE.

.LONG TERM...
FEW CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE LONG TERM PORTION OF THE FORECAST.
MODELS CONTINUE TO COALESCE AROUND A SOLUTION BRINGING THE MID
LEVEL LOW CURRENTLY NEAR LUBBOCK SOUTHEAST FROM NORTHWEST TEXAS
INTO THE HILL COUNTRY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THIS WEEK. WITH THAT
IN MIND...WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW THE HIGHEST CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE
BIG COUNTRY...AND ESPECIALLY THE NORTHEASTERN PARTS OF THE AREA.
THE MODELS CONTINUE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDABLY HARD TIME RESOLVING
EXACTLY WHAT PATH THIS MID LEVEL FEATURE WILL TAKE AND HOW FAST.
FOR THAT REASON...COULD NOT JUSTIFY MAKING ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
TO THE FORECAST AS THE SAME GENERAL IDEA REMAINS THAT SCATTERED
CONVECTION IS LIKELY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS...WITH THE BEST
CHANCES NEAR THIS MID LEVEL LOW WHICH IS EXPECTED TO MOVE FROM OUR
NORTHEASTERN COUNTIES SOUTH TOWARDS OUR NORTHWEST HILL COUNTRY
THROUGH FRIDAY.

THE MAIN HAZARDS REMAIN TO BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH RICH
MOISTURE IN PLACE AND SLOW STORM MOVEMENT...IN ADDITION TO LOW
END SEVERE HAIL AND/OR WIND GUSTS WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS.

BY SATURDAY MORNING...THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN A MORE DEFINED
PATH TO THE NORTHEAST AWAY FROM THE AREA...EFFECTIVELY ENDING RAIN
CHANCES ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA. THIS WILL ALSO RESULT IN
TEMPERATURES WARMING BACK UP INTO THE MID TO UPPER 90S AREA
WIDE BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...WITH WARM TEMPERATURES REMAINING OVER
THE AREA THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK. HAVE ALREADY GONE A
COUPLE DEGREES WARMER IN GENERAL THAN MEX GUIDANCE...BUT
TEMPERATURES MAY NEED TO BE WARMED EVEN FURTHER IF 850MB
TEMPERATURES PROVE TO BE AS WARM AS MODELS ARE PREDICTING.
