AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
432 PM CST FRI FEB 27 2015

.UPDATE...
A BAND OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW CONTINUES TO DEVELOP BETWEEN
DECATUR...DENTON AND THE RED RIVER LATE THIS AFTERNOON IN AN AREA
OF ENHANCED INSTABILITY. THIS AREA HAS ALREADY RECEIVED UP TO 5
INCHES OF SNOW AND HAS THE POTENTIAL TO RECEIVE APPRECIABLE SNOW
AMOUNTS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS WITH SNOW TOTALS UP TO 8
INCHES POSSIBLE. WITH THIS IN MIND...WE WILL ISSUE A SMALL WINTER
STORM WARNING TO ACCOUNT FOR THE HIGHER SNOW TOTALS. THE WARNING
WILL BE FOR WISE...DENTON...COOKE AND GRAYSON AND WILL BE VALID
UNTIL 6 PM SATURDAY. NO OTHER CHANGES ARE NECESSARY AT THIS TIME.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 404 PM CST FRI FEB 27 2015/

...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WILL REMAIN FOR LIGHT SNOW...
TRANSITIONING TO FREEZING DRIZZLE/LIGHT FREEZING RAIN OVERNIGHT
INTO SATURDAY...

...SOUTHERN ZONES...ADDED TO A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FROM 6 PM
TONIGHT UNTIL NOON SATURDAY FOR A MIX OF LIGHT SNOW AND LIGHT
FREEZING DRIZZLE....

THE AREA OF LIGHT TO OCCASIONALLY MODERATE SNOW CURRENTLY EAST OF
A LINE FROM ABOUT BOWIE TO GRANBURY WILL CONTINUE MOVING
EAST/NORTHEAST THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON WITH THE DEPARTING SHORT
WAVE. THIS SHOULD PRODUCE AN ADDITIONAL ONE HALF TO ONE INCH OF
SNOW...ESPECIALLY BETWEEN DECATUR...FORT WORTH AND THE RED RIVER WITH
A FEW ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS. BEHIND THIS MAIN LINE...SOME LIGHT
SNOW OR FLURRIES WILL LINGER THROUGH THE EVENING BUT SHOULD ADD
LITTLE TO THE CURRENT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS. WHEN ALL IS SAID AND
DONE...SNOW TOTALS SHOULD AVERAGE BETWEEN 2 AND 5 INCHES FROM THE
INTERSTATE 20 CORRIDOR NORTHWARD WITH BETWEEN ONE HALF INCH AND 2
INCHES IN ALL BUT THE SOUTHEAST THIRD OF THE REGION.

CENTRAL TEXAS RADARS CURRENTLY SHOW AN INCREASING FEED OF LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE IN THE FORM OF MAINLY LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE ACROSS
THE TEXAS HILL COUNTRY. THIS MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO ADVANCE
NORTHWARD INTO NORTH TEXAS OVERNIGHT WHILE SURFACE TEMPS EITHER
REMAIN OR FALL BELOW FREEZING. THIS WILL RESULT IN MAINLY LIGHT
FREEZING DRIZZLE ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION. THE ONLY EXCEPTION WILL
BE THE SOUTHEAST ZONES WHICH ARE CURRENTLY ABOVE FREEZING AND
SHOULD NOT FALL BELOW FREEZING UNTIL LATER THIS EVENING OR
OVERNIGHT. WE HAVE DECIDED TO ADD THESE SOUTHERN ZONES TO A WINTER
WEATHER ADVISORY TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING...MAINLY FOR
FREEZING DRIZZLE...POSSIBLY MIXED WITH LIGHT SNOW DURING THE
EVENING. SINCE LARGE SCALE LIFT WILL BE VERY WEAK...WE DO NOT
ANTICIPATE FREEZING RAIN AND SIGNIFICANT ICE ACCUMULATIONS.
HOWEVER...EVEN AN ADDITIONAL LIGHT GLAZE FROM FREEZING DRIZZLE
WILL RESULT IN OR ADD TO ONGOING TRAVEL PROBLEMS.

THE WARM LAYER WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE ON SATURDAY AND
PRECIPITATION SHOULD TRANSITION TO LIGHT RAIN FROM SOUTH TO NORTH
AS SURFACE TEMPERATURES WARM ABOVE FREEZING. WE ARE A BIT
CONCERNED THAT FREEZING TEMPERATURES WILL LINGER THROUGH MID
AFTERNOON IN MANY LOCATIONS DUE TO THE CURRENT SNOW COVERAGE IN
THE NORTH AND THE EXPECTED CLOUD COVER. THEREFORE...WE WILL CARRY
THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY UNTIL 6 PM SATURDAY FOR ALL BUT THE
SOUTHEAST ZONES. IN THE SOUTHEAST ZONES WE WILL RUN THE ADVISORY
UNTIL NOON SATURDAY.

SURFACE TEMPERATURES SHOULD SLOWLY WARM SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY MORNING AS SOUTHEAST SURFACE WINDS RETURN. OTHER THAN SOME
WEAK PERTURBATIONS IN WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...WE DO NOT
ANTICIPATE ANY MAJOR SOURCE OF LARGE SCALE LIFT SO WILL ONLY KEEP
SOME CHANCE POPS FOR LIGHT RAIN. SOME PATCHY FOG IS ALSO POSSIBLE
SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY.

A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE RED RIVER ON SUNDAY AND MAY SNEAK
INTO THE NORTHERN ZONES AS PER THE NAM AND ECMWF SOLUTIONS. THE
FRONT MAY PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LIFT FOR SOME LIGHT RAIN AS WELL AS
BRING COOLER TEMPERATURES. HAVE DECIDED TO GO WITH A BLEND OF THE
SOLUTIONS REGARDING HIGHS ON SUNDAY SO WILL LOWER THE NORTHERN
ZONES HIGHS TO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 40S WITH MAINLY 50S AND 60S
ELSEWHERE/

NORTH TEXAS WILL STAY IN A VERY UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN THROUGH
THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK AS AN UPPER LOW MOVES EAST FROM THE PACIFIC
AND MERGES WITH A NORTHERN BRANCH UPPER TROUGH TO FORM A DEEP LONG
WAVE TROUGH. THE RESPONSE ACROSS NORTH TEXAS AHEAD OF THIS
DEVELOPING SYSTEM WILL BE AND INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY WITH INCREASING INSTABILITY. IT LOOK LIKES
THE BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE TUESDAY AFTERNOON/TUESDAY
EVENING.

STORMS SHOULD END FROM NORTH TO SOUTH TUESDAY NIGHT WITH THE
PASSAGE OF ANOTHER STRONG COLD FRONT. IT APPEARS THAT ANOTHER
CHANCE FOR WINTER PRECIP WILL BE POSSIBLE BEHIND THE FRONT ON
WEDNESDAY. RIGHT NOW SLEET APPEARS TO BE THE PRIMARY PRECIP TYPE.
ANY POST FRONTAL PRECIP SHOULD END WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH DRY
NORTHWEST FLOW EXPECTED THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.
