Area forecast discussion, Apr 6, 7:43 AM CDT, 2 hours 6 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
743 AM CDT SUN APR 6 2014

.UPDATE...
MINOR CHANGES TO WEATHER GRIDS INTO THE MID AFTERNOON FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH. MAINLY FOR HAIL WITH GOLF BALLS ALREADY AT
HUDSON TEXAS. SOME DAMAGING WINDS MAY ALSO ACCOMPANY SOME OF THE
STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS AS THE WARM FRONT BEGINS TO LIFT INTO THE
SOUTHERN TIER OF CO/PA CURRENTLY STILL ALONG THE GULF COAST. /24/

&&

.AVIATION...
SHWRS AND TSTMS AREA WIDE...SOME WITH LARGE HAIL. IFR/MVFR/VFR IN
AND OUT WITH RAPIDLY CHANGING CONDITIONS ASSOCIATED WITH HEAVY
RAINFALL. LITTLE CHANGE UNTIL MID TO LATE CYCLE AS DRIER AIR ALOFT
MOVES OVERHEAD UNDER THE UPPER TROUGH OVER W TX AND NORTHERN
MEXICO ATTM. SFC WINDS WILL CONTINUE GENERALLY OUT OF THE EAST...E/NE
ALONG AND N OF I-20 AND E/SE SOUTH WITH STRONG WIND POSSIBLE IN
AND NEAR ANY STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS. CLIMB WINDS ARE EASTERLY TO 3
OR 4 KFT...THEN BACK TO SOUTHWEST...MOISTURE RICH OFF THE PACIFIC.
/06/

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 600 AM CDT SUN APR 6 2014/

DISCUSSION...
NORTHEASTERLY SURFACE WINDS CONTINUE MAINLY NORTH OF I-20 WITH
MID TO UPPER 40S AND SOME LOW TO MID 50S ARE EDGING INTO SOUTHERN
AND FAR EASTERN AREAS ON EAST AND SOUTHEASTERLY...ALL GENERALLY LESS
THAN 10 MPH. THE SHREVEPORT 88D DOPPLER RADAR HAS SHOWN SMALLER
ELEMENTS SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS CLUSTERING ALONG AND
SOUTH OF I-20 OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS. IN ADDITION...AN
ESTABLISHED CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS IS SLIDING NORTHEASTWARD ALONG AND
NORTH OF I-30 IN NE TX. FARTHER BACK IN NORTH TEXAS...CLUSTERS OF
THUNDERSTORMS EXTEND TO OUR WEST FROM NEAR WACO TO WICHITA FALLS.

THE WATER VAPOR SHOWS THE MORE DIVERGENT AIR ALOFT OVER SOUTH
TEXAS ROTATING AROUND THE COMPLEX CLOSED UPPER LOWS OVER NM AND
THE OK/TX PANHANDLES. COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF PACIFIC MOISTURE WILL
FOCUS OVER MUCH OF THE FOUR STATE AREA FOR THE NEXT 12-18 AT LEAST
AND FAR EASTERN SECTIONS TO NEAR 24 HOURS. THE FLOOD WATCH REMAINS
AS ISSUED MAINLY FOR LOCATIONS WHERE SOIL MOISTURE IS ALREADY WET
FROM PREVIOUS HEAVY RAINFALL IN RECENT DAYS. OUR DEW POINTS ARE
CREEPING UP WITH THE WARMER RAINFALL AND WE HAVE BUMPED FORECAST
HIGHS FOR TODAY JUST A BIT...BUT STILL VARY A GOOD BIT IN SOME
CASES FROM NAM AND MAV GUIDANCE.

WPC QPF IS FOCUSED PRIMARILY OVER THE WATCH AREA AS WELL...BUT
TAPERS OFF AFTER...ESPECIALLY AFTER MIDNIGHT...QUICKLY FROM WEST
TO EAST. SOME WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE WATCH AREA MAY BE CANCELLED
DURING THE EVENING HOURS IF THIS WORKS OUT TO BE THE CASE.
GENERALLY SPEAKING...THE GFS AND NAM MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT WITH
ONLY THE ECMWF KEEPING HIGHER QPF AMOUNTS OVER THE EAST THROUGH
12Z MONDAY.

A LARGE SURFACE HIGH WILL BEGIN TO BUILD INTO THE AREA A DAY LATER
ON TUESDAY AND WILL BRING ADDITIONAL RAINFALL WITH SHOWERS AND
SOME ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. ALL THIS BODES WELL FOR THE FOUR
STATE AREA/S LATE WINTER RAINFALL DEFICIT. THIS AREA OF SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE WILL KEEP US DRY WITH OUR HIGHS AND LOWS BELOW EARLY
APRIL AVERAGES INTO MIDWEEK. WARMER TEMPERATURES ARE STILL EXPECTED
FOR LATE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND AT WHICH TIME...MORE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME POSSIBLE OVER THE FOUR STATE AREA. MEX
GUIDANCE IS REASONABLE AND HAS BEEN BLENDED IN THE LONGER RANGE.
