SEE 06Z AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

&&

.AVIATION...
MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THE NEXT 24 HOURS. CURRENTLY
WATCHING A LINE OF STORMS MOVING EAST THROUGH THE MIDLAND AREA. THIS
LINE OF STORMS HAS A CHANCE OF MAKING IT INTO STERLING AND IRION
COUNTIES BY 07Z WED...AND POSSIBLY THE SJT TERMINAL BY 08Z WED.
WILL CARRY A VCTS FOR A FEW HOURS AT KSJT...BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT
VERY HIGH. ALSO...A LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS IS MOVING
SOUTHEAST INTO THE NORTHERN PART OF THE TEXAS SOUTH PLAINS...STILL
NORTH OF LUBBOCK. THIS ACTIVITY IS FEEDING OFF GOOD SURFACE
INFLOW AND ELEVATED INSTABILITY. THIS COMPLEX OF STORMS MAY MAKE
INTO THE BIG COUNTRY AFTER 09Z WED. WILL GO WITH A VCTS AT THE
KABI TERMINAL BETWEEN 10Z AND 15Z WED...BUT UNCERTAINTY IS STILL
HIGH. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHEAST AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO 30

UPDATE...

LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS AND SHORT-TERM MODELS INDICATE THE
THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL FOR THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT HAS
DIMINISHED. LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATES A STATIONARY FRONTAL
BOUNDARY REMAINS ACROSS OUR BIG COUNTRY COUNTIES JUST NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 20. IF THUNDERSTORMS DO CONTINUE TO OUR WEST AND
NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT...SOME MIGHT PERSIST LONG ENOUGH TO MOVE INTO
OUR AREA. THUS...I HAVE CONTINUED LOW-END CHANCE POPS FOR MOST OF
WEST CENTRAL TEXAS FOR THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT. THE LATEST ZONE
AND POINT FORECAST MATRIX PRODUCTS REFLECT THESE GRID CHANCES.

HUBER

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 306 PM CDT TUE JUN 12 2012/

SHORT TERM...
A STATIONARY BOUNDARY EXTENDED FROM A SURFACE LOW OVER FAR WEST
TEXAS AND EAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL CWA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS
BOUNDARY WILL LIFT NORTH AS A WARM FRONT LATER THIS EVENING AND
SHOULD BE ALONG THE RED RIVER BY EARLY WEDNESDAY. WITH A VERY
UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE AREA AND GIVEN THE PRESENCE OF THE WARM
FRONT AND MULTIPLE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM TODAYS ACTIVITY...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO REDEVELOP LATER THIS
AFTERNOON DURING THE PERIOD OF MAX HEATING OVER WEST TEXAS AND THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF EASTERN NEW MEXICO. A RESULTANT COMPLEX OF
STORMS IS THEN EXPECTED TO MOVE EAST/SOUTHEAST... BRINGING ANOTHER
CHANCE OF STORMS TO THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING AND THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE MORE AGGRESSIVE NAM IS DEVELOPING SIGNIFICANT
CONVECTION FARTHER SOUTH INTO THE CONCHO VALLEY LATER THIS
EVENING...WHILE THE GFS KEEPS THE BULK OF CONVECTION OVER THE BIG
COUNTRY THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. STRONG INSTABILITY COUPLED
WITH ADEQUATE SHEAR WILL RESULT IN A SEVERE THREAT WITH ANY STORMS
THAT DEVELOP THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED TORNADO
CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL INTENSIFY THIS
EVENING...WHICH WILL HELP SUSTAIN CONVECTION WELL INTO THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS.

18

LONG TERM...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE ONGOING WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS
ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT MOVES
THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. WITH THE DEPARTURE OF THIS UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE AND THE STRENGTHENING OF AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE...RAIN
CHANCES WILL END EARLY THURSDAY. WITH UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE
DOMINATING THE SOUTHERN PLAINS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
EXTENDED...DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL OVER THE FORECAST AREA.
AFTERNOON HIGHS WILL REMAIN GENERALLY IN THE MID 90S AND MORNING
LOWS WILL REMAIN IN THE LOWER 70S THROUGH THE COMING WEEKEND AND
INTO THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK.
