AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX
624 PM CDT WED MAR 23 2016

.AVIATION...

THE COMBINATION OF AN UPPER TROUGH...A DRY LINE AND A COLD FRONT
WILL LEAD TO A ROUND OF CONVECTION THIS EVENING...

CONVERGENCE ALONG A DRY LINE HAS LED TO ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT NORTH OF THE DFW AREA OVER THE PAST HOUR OR SO. HI-RES
MODEL GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT ACTIVITY WILL BACK-BUILD
SOUTHWESTWARD TOWARDS THE KMWL AREA OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS
AS STRONGER FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH ARRIVES FROM
THE WEST. FOR SIMPLICITY WE WILL BEGIN THE METROPLEX TAFS WITH
VCTS. THE FRONT WILL LIKELY OVERTAKE THE DRYLINE ABOUT THE SAME
TIME STORMS BEGIN TO AFFECT THE DALLAS-FORT WORTH AREA...WHICH
SHOULD BE IN THE THE 02-04Z TIME FRAME. ACTIVITY MAY START OFF
ISOLATED IN NATURE...WITH STORMS THEN FORMING INTO A LINE AND
DEVELOPING SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE REGION WITH THE FRONT. TIMING
OF THE ONSET OF CONVECTION IN THE WACO AREA WILL PROBABLY BE
AROUND 3 HOURS AFTER THE DFW AREA...OR BEGINNING AROUND MIDNIGHT
LOCAL. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AND VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT.

&&

.UPDATE.../1148 AM CDT/
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW IS CURRENTLY MOVING INTO WESTERN KANSAS WITH
ITS ATTENDANT SURFACE LOW ALSO MOVING ACROSS KANSAS. A DRYLINE
EXTENDS FROM THE SURFACE LOW SOUTH...WITH THE LEADING EDGE NEAR A
VERNON TO SWEETWATER TO OZONA LINE. THE DRYLINE WILL CONTINUE
MIXING EAST...STALLING ACROSS NORTH TEXAS AROUND MID- AFTERNOON AS
THE LOWER AND MID LEVEL WINDS BECOME MORE SOUTHWESTERLY WHILE THE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES EAST. WHERE THE DRYLINE STALLS REMAINS
THE MAIN CHALLENGE FOR THE FORECAST THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. THE
HI RES MODELS STALL THE DRYLINE FURTHER WEST THAN PREVIOUSLY
THOUGHT AND HAVE UPDATED THE FORECAST TO REFLECT THIS CHANGE.

THE LOCATION OF THE DRYLINE AND WHERE IT STALLS WILL HAVE IMPACTS
ON THE LOCATION OF STORM DEVELOPMENT LATER TODAY. LATEST MODEL
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THE DRYLINE WILL STALL NEAR A GAINESVILLE TO
GOLDTHWAITE LINE LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THE RAP HAS BEEN
CONSISTENTLY DEVELOPING ISOLATED CONVECTION ALONG THE DRYLINE
ALONG AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 20 BETWEEN 22-23Z /5-6 PM CDT/ AND
NOW THE HRRR IS DEVELOPING CONVECTION TOO IN THE SAME GENERAL
LOCATION AND TIME. FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM THE RAP SHOW THE CAP
WEAKENING ALONG THE DRYLINE ALLOWING FOR CONVECTIVE INITIATION AND
HAVE ADJUSTED THE AFTERNOON POPS ACCORDINGLY FOR THIS POTENTIAL
ALONG AND WEST OF A BOWIE TO MERIDIAN LINE. STILL KEPT THE POPS
LOW AT 20 PERCENT AS ANY STORMS DURING THE 4-6 PM TIME FRAME
SHOULD BE ISOLATED BUT THESE STORMS COULD BE SEVERE. CAPE VALUES
WILL BE BETWEEN 1500-2000 J/KG WITH STRONG BULK SHEAR VALUES. MAIN
THREATS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS BUT AN ISOLATED
TORNADO WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE.

AFTER 6-7 PM...THE COLD FRONT WILL START TO OVERTAKE THE DRYLINE
FROM NORTH TO SOUTH AND A NARROW BAND OF STORMS ALONG THE
FRONT/DRYLINE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AS THIS HAPPENS. WITH THE
LIKELIHOOD THAT THE DRYLINE WILL BE WEST OF INTERSTATE
35...EXPANDED THE EVENING POPS WEST AS WELL BUT THE BEST STORM
CHANCES WILL BE ALONG AND EAST OF INTERSTATE 35. SEVERE STORMS
WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE WITH A THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING
WINDS...AND ISOLATED TORNADOES IN THE EVENING HOURS BUT THE MAIN
THREAT MAY TRANSITION TO STRONG WINDS LATER IN THE EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT IF THE STORMS BECOME LINEAR ALONG THE FRONT...SIMILAR TO
A SQUALL LINE. OVERNIGHT...THE SEVERE THREAT WILL LOWER BUT WILL
STILL BE POSSIBLE. THE STORMS SHOULD BE EAST AND SOUTHEAST OF THE
AREA BY DAYBREAK AS THE FRONT MOVES OUT OF CENTRAL TEXAS.

&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 347 PM CDT WED MAR 23 2016/
FOR THE REMAINDER OF TODAY AND TONIGHT...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
ARE EXPECTED FROM THE UPDATE ISSUED AROUND MIDDAY AND HAVE
APPENDED THE UPDATE DISCUSSION BELOW FOR REFERENCE. BOTH THE RED
FLAG WARNING AND WIND ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT TROUGH 7 PM
CDT EVEN THOUGH MANY SITES ARE NOT CONSISTENTLY MEETING CRITERIA.
THE THREAT FOR FIRES AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
EVENING HOURS.

WE CONTINUE TO TRACK THE LOCATION OF THE DRYLINE...VISIBLE ON
AREA RADARS...WHICH AT 3 PM WAS LOCATED NEAR A LINE FROM OKLAHOMA
CITY TO GRAHAM TO FORT STOCKTON. SOME CUMULUS CLOUDS HAVE BEEN
DEVELOPING ALONG THE DRYLINE FROM OLNEY/GRAHAM TO ABILENE BUT
THERE IS LITTLE VERTICAL EXTENT TO THESE CLOUDS AND NO CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT. ACARS SOUNDINGS AT KDFW AIRPORT INDICATE THE CAP HAS
WEAKENED BUT IS STILL IN PLACE. HOWEVER...BY 22-23Z...THE HRRR
CONTINUES TO DEVELOP CONVECTION NEAR THE I-35 CORRIDOR AND RAPIDLY
INCREASES THE INTENSITY OF THESE STORMS WHICH WOULD BE EXPECTED
GIVEN THE UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT AND SUFFICIENT SHEAR FOR SUPERCELLS
IF THE CAP CAN BE WEAKENED/ERODED.

THE COLD FRONT CAN ALSO BE TRACKED ON VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY
AND AREA RADARS SWEEPING DOWN THE TEXAS PANHANDLE AND WESTERN
OKLAHOMA. AS THE FRONT OVERTAKES THE DRYLINE IN OUR AREA THIS
EVENING AND LARGE SCALE LIFT INCREASES AS THE BASE OF THE UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONT/DRYLINE INTERACTION AND
POSSIBLY THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF THE DRYLINE. AT FIRST...THESE
STORMS MAY FORM A BROKEN LINE BUT ARE EXPECTED TO CONGEAL INTO A
MORE SOLID LINE AS THE FRONT PROGRESSES SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE
AREA. BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY MORNING...THE STORMS SHOULD HAVE EXITED
THE AREA LEAVING COOL AND BREEZY CONDITIONS IN THE WAKE OF THE
FRONT.

THE MAIN THREATS WITH ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING WILL BE LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND
ISOLATED TORNADOES. FOR THE STORMS ALONG THE FRONT LATER...INITIAL
THREATS WILL ALSO BE LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND ISOLATED
TORNADOES. HOWEVER...AS THE STORMS CONGEAL INTO A LINE...THE MAIN
THREAT MAY BECOME DAMAGING WINDS...BUT THERE WILL STILL BE A LOWER
THREAT FOR HAIL AND ISOLATED TORNADOES GIVEN THE SHEAR VALUES
AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY WILL BE COOLER WITH HIGHS IN THE 60S BUT
IT WILL FEEL COOLER THAN THAT WITH BREEZY NORTH WINDS OF 10 TO 20
MPH AND GUSTS UP TO 30 MPH. BROAD TROUGHING IN THE MID LEVELS OF
THE ATMOSPHERE WILL CONTINUE BUT WEAK RIDGING FROM THE SURFACE TO
H700 AND A RETURN OF SOUTH WINDS FRIDAY WILL RESULT IN WARMING
TEMPERATURES FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ARE EXPECTED
TO BE PLEASANT...SUNNY...AND DRY BUT IT WILL BE A LITTLE BREEZY IN
SOME AREAS WITH WINDS OF 10-15 MPH AND SLIGHTLY HIGHER GUSTS.

ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH THE BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
AND ACROSS THE PLAINS SATURDAY NIGHT SENDING ANOTHER COLD FRONT
INTO NORTH AND CENTRAL TEXAS ON SUNDAY. THERE ARE TIMING
DIFFERENCES WITH THE FRONT BUT THE LATEST TRACK HAS IT MOVING
THROUGH THE REGION LATE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING. THERE
MAY BE SOME WEAK INSTABILITY AHEAD OF THE FRONT FOR A FEW STRONG
STORMS BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS LOW AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR THE INSTABILITY AND TIMING LEADING UP TO THIS NEXT SYSTEM.
SUNDAY WILL BE A COOL DAY FOR MOST WITH TEMPERATURES DEPENDING ON
THE TIMING OF THE FRONT.

EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL BE DRY WITH INCREASING TEMPERATURES BUT
ANOTHER STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM MAY DEVELOP IN THE WESTERN CONUS
BY MIDWEEK BRINGING ADDITIONAL RAIN CHANCES BY MID TO LATE WEEK.
