AJSWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flash flood 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 flash flood warning went out at Dec 27, 11:42 AM CST, 2 hours 27 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 27, 11:42 AM CST, 2 hours 27 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 1142 AM CST SUN DEC 27 2015 .UPDATE... FORECASTS HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. STRONG NORTH WINDS SUSTAINED IN THE 20 TO 30 MPH RANGE WITH GUSTS 30 TO 40 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF THE DAY BEHIND THE STRONG COLD FRONT WHICH PUSHED THROUGH THE REGION LAST NIGHT THROUGH THIS MORNING. WINDS WILL DECREASE SOME THIS EVENING......BUT CONDITIONS WILL STILL REMAIN BREEZY THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. 30 && .AVIATION... /ISSUED 534 AM CST SUN DEC 27 2015/ MAIN CONCERN IS TIMING OF PRECIPITATION ROUNDS. EXPECT HEAVIEST ACTIVITY AND POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO BE GREATEST DURING THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WITH ACTIVITY SHIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE TAF SITES BY LATE MORNING. HI-RES GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN SHOWING A BREAK FOR THE MIDDAY TO AFTERNOON HOURS...AND THEN ANOTHER ROUND OF ELEVATED CONVECTION LATE AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY TO MID EVENING. BELIEVE THE SECOND ROUND SHOULD BE MAINLY SHOWERS BUT WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR A LOW THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS GIVEN SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY. HAVE INCLUDED A MENTION OF LIGHT RAIN AND LIGHT SNOW MIX FROM 7Z/1AM TO 10Z/4AM MONDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES SHOULD STAY ABOVE FREEZING SO LITTLE TO NO ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED...HOWEVER INBOUND COLDER AIRCRAFT MAY ACCUMULATE ICE AND REQUIRE DEICING OPERATIONS. CIGS WILL LIKELY BE RANGE BOUND BETWEEN 800FT AND 1300FT THROUGH THE PERIOD. NORTH WINDS WILL CONTINUE NEAR 20G30KT THROUGH THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO BACK AROUND TO THE NORTHWEST TONIGHT WHICH MAY START TO PRESENT CROSSWIND CONCERNS ON NORTH-SOUTH RUNWAYS BY MONDAY MORNING. TR.92 && .UPDATE... THE FORECAST HAS BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE TORNADO WATCH 571 FOR ANDERSON AND LEON COUNTIES. THE ATMOSPHERE REMAINS UNSTABLE IN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT...WHICH AT 9 AM EXTENDED FROM ATHENS TO HEARNE. THE SEVERE THREAT SHOULD WANE AROUND MIDDAY AS THE FRONT PUSHES FARTHER TO THE SOUTHEAST...SUBMERSING ALL OF OUR CWA IN THE COLD AND LESS UNSTABLE AIR BEHIND THE FRONT. THERE WILL STILL BE PERIODS OF RAIN WITH OCCASIONAL EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS...SO THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE EASTERN TWO- THIRDS OF THE REGION WILL REMAIN AS IS. THE MAIN CHALLENGE WILL THEN SHIFT TO WINTER WEATHER AND THE POSSIBILITY OF ACCUMULATING SNOW IN OUR WEST AND NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES. THE BEST OPPORTUNITY FOR SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL OCCUR TONIGHT AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE REGION. A TRANSITION TO SNOW COULD OCCUR AS FAR SOUTH AND EAST AS THE DALLAS-FORT WORTH AREA OVERNIGHT...BUT AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS THAT ACCUMULATIONS WOULD REMAIN TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF THE METROPLEX. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST TRENDS UPSTREAM AND THE MOST RECENT MODEL DATA AS THE DAY WEARS ON. 30 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 434 AM CST SUN DEC 27 2015/ A POWERFUL UPPER LOW...NOW OVER THE TRANS-PECOS...WILL CONTINUE APPROACHING TODAY...RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINFALL MAY RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING. AS THE LOW MOVES OVERHEAD TONIGHT...AREAS GENERALLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE I-35 CORRIDOR WILL SEE A TRANSITION TO SLEET AND SNOW. THE WINTRY PRECIPITATION WILL COME TO AN END ON MONDAY...AND LITTLE ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED THE REMAINDER OF THE UPCOMING WEEK. BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL PREVAIL INTO THE NEW YEAR. THE COLD FRONT THAT INVADED NORTH TEXAS ON SATURDAY HAS MADE LITTLE ADDITIONAL PROGRESS OVERNIGHT. A SURFACE LOW...NOW IN DEEP SOUTH TEXAS...WILL CONTINUE TO INHIBIT ITS PROGRESS TODAY. BUT AS THE LOW MOVES THROUGH CENTRAL AND EAST TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...IT WILL FINALLY ALLOW THE FRONT TO EXIT OUT EASTERN ZONES LATE IN THE DAY. IN THE MEANTIME...A VAST CONTRAST WILL PERSIST ACROSS NORTH TEXAS. TEMPERATURES HAVE FALLEN INTO THE 30S IN WESTERN NORTH TEXAS... WITH GUSTY NORTH WINDS. DESPITE THE WINTRY WIND CHILLS... CONSIDERABLE MOISTURE FLUX WILL CONTINUE ABOVE THE BOUNDARY... WITH TREMENDOUS MID-LEVEL FORCING STILL UPSTREAM. THE TRAINING BAND OF THUNDERSTORMS NOW IN WESTERN NORTH TEXAS WILL RESULT IN ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINFALL WELL BEHIND THE FRONT. ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CWA...OUR SOUTHEAST ZONES REMAIN IN THE 70S WITH UNSEASONABLY RICH MOISTURE STILL IN PLACE. THIS WILL MAINTAIN A THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER...IN PARTICULAR...THOSE AREAS SOUTHEAST OF A LINE FROM CAMERON...TO CORSICANA...TO SULPHUR SPRINGS. WITH DEW POINTS NEAR 70F...MLCAPE VALUES WILL SOAR ABOVE 1000J/KG. WITH 850MB WINDS NEAR 50KTS AND STORM MOTION FAVORING TRAINING ECHOES PARALLEL TO THE BOUNDARY...PROLONGED POTENTIALLY TORNADIC SUPERCELLS WILL POSE A SIGNIFICANT DAMAGING WIND THREAT IN THESE AREAS. THE COLD AIR WILL DEEPEN IN OUR WESTERN ZONES...BUT THE APPROACHING UPPER LOW WILL MAINTAIN STRONG WARM ADVECTION BETWEEN 850 AND 700MB. ALTHOUGH THIS AIR IS LIFTING AND WILL COOL...IT SHOULD RESULT IN A WARM NOSE THAT MAY INITIALLY PRECLUDE A TRANSITION TO SNOW. HOWEVER...THE SUB-FREEZING LAYER BELOW THE FRONTAL INVERSION WILL BE SUFFICIENTLY DEEP TO ALLOW SLEET TO REACH THE SURFACE WITHIN THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY AREA THIS EVENING. EVENTUALLY...AS THE CORE OF THE UPPER LOW MOVES OVER AROUND MIDNIGHT...A TRANSITION TO SNOW SHOULD STILL OCCUR. THE DURATION OF SLEET WOULD LIMIT TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS...BUT EVEN IF THE CHANGEOVER TO SNOW OCCURS EARLIER...STORM TOTALS WILL LIKELY REMAIN BELOW 4 INCHES. ALTHOUGH RECENT WARMTH MAY INITIALLY MITIGATE SOME OF THE IMPACTS...TEMPERATURES WILL FALL INTO THE 20S MONDAY MORNING WITHIN THE ADVISORY AREA. ACCUMULATION OF SNOW ON MAIN ROAD SURFACES WILL OCCUR...AND THE PERSISTENT GUSTY WINDS WILL MAKE NAVIGATING SLICK ROADS MORE DIFFICULT. IN ADDITION... BLOWING SNOW WILL DIMINISH THE VISIBILITY. EVEN WITH SNOW ON THE GROUND... THE SUN WILL RETURN MONDAY AND HELP TO MELT MUCH OF WHAT FALLS. OUTSIDE OF THE ADVISORY AREA...AS FAR EAST AS THE I-35 CORRIDOR... SNOW MAY INITIALLY MIX WITH THE RAIN LATE TONIGHT...WITH A TRANSITION TO FLURRIES MONDAY MORNING. IT STILL APPEARS THAT THE POPULATION CENTERS ALONG THE I-35 CORRIDOR WILL REMAIN ABOVE FREEZING...AND THE DURATION AND INTENSITY OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL LIKELY BE INSUFFICIENT FOR MEASURABLE SNOWFALL. IN ADDITION...STRONG DRY ADVECTION WITHIN THE GROWTH ZONE WILL BEGIN SHUTTING OFF THE PRECIP PROCESS. AREAS SOUTH OF THE I-20 WILL BE PRECIP-FREE BY DAYBREAK MONDAY MORNING...WITH A QUICK EXIT TO THE RAIN AND SNOW IN AREAS NORTH OF I-20 BEFORE MIDDAY. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL RETURN ON TUESDAY...BUT TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN BELOW NORMAL. A REINFORCING SHOT OF COOL AIR WILL ARRIVE ON WEDNESDAY...SETTING THE STAGE FOR A COLD NEW YEARS EVE. NORTHERLY SURFACE FLOW WILL PREVAIL INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...MEANING THE COOLER THAN NORMAL WEATHER WILL STICK AROUND. 25 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... DALLAS-FT.
