...New Short Term, Aviation...

.SHORT TERM... /NEW/
Update:
This morning's guidance has been struggling to capture the ongoing
thunderstorms that developed south of the original complex of
storms across the Texas Panhandle.

An outflow boundary is now from around Bowie to Breckenridge,
slowly moving eastward. A complex of storms is just now moving
into Young, Stephens and Eastland counties, migrating to the
southeast. Behind this complex, additional storms have developed
and are expected to push eastward through the rest of the morning.

The main changes to the short-term forecast were made to the
precipitation chances as we go through the rest of the morning and
afternoon. Rain chances were bumped up to account for the higher
than anticipated convection currently going on, as well as a
general trend from the CAMs toward higher PoPs this afternoon.

Although we are likely starting to sound like a broken record, any
heavy rain will have the potential to lead to flooding. Saturated
soils will lead to quick runoff anywhere across North Texas. If
you see water over the road, remember, Turn Around, Don't Drown!
In addition to the flooding, gusty winds will remain possible with
any thunderstorm today.

Previous Discussion:
/Through Tonight/

Another unsettled weather day is expected as our airmass across
the region remains fairly moist. A decaying complex of showers and
thunderstorms is now moving east from the Texas Panhandle,
getting ready to move into our far western counties shortly.
Another area of precipitation has recently developed east and
northeast of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. As we go through the
early morning hours, precipitation coverage is expected to
gradually increase in the northeast, some of which could be heavy
at times.

The recent development of showers east of I-35 can be attributed
to a slight strengthening of the low level jet. An axis of around
2" precipitable water values is in place east of I-35. With
sufficient forcing for convective elements, would not be
surprised if a few locations pick up 2-3 inches of rain with
isolated higher amounts this morning along the Red River, east of
I-35. Flooding will be the primary concern given soil moisture
remains quite high.

The complex of storms to our west is now losing some of its punch
as the low-level jet gradually veers through the next couple of
hours. This will likely lead to a remnant boundary continuing to
pushing toward the I-35 corridor this morning. With daytime
heating, localized surface convergence and plenty of moisture,
additional showers and storms are likely to develop once again
this afternoon. The development of showers and storms is looking a
bit less likely west of I-35 given moisture return will be
hindered by the aformentioned remnant boundary.

High temperatures today will climb into the lower to mid 80s with
mostly cloudy skies through the first half of the afternoon. Some
peeks of sunshine will be possible during the latter half of the
afternoon before additional low clouds make their way northward
from the coastal region this evening.

Another active day with showers and storms is likely to take
place in the Texas Panhandle, and similar to today, a line of
storms will be making its way eastward tonight. Just how far east
the line of storms survives remains a bit uncertain, but a
slightly weaker low-level jet compared to today leads me to
believe it will be difficult to sustain convection into the early
Wednesday morning hours. The main piece of energy will be moving
across the Red River tonight, therefore, a few showers and storms
can't be ruled out as we approach sunrise tomorrow.

.LONG TERM... /Issued 238 AM CDT Tue May 25 2021/
/Wednesday Onward/

A pattern more reminiscent of late spring will persist through the
long term portion of the forecast with a rather active storm track
displaced to our north. This will result in a few more opportunities
for convective complexes to affect the forecast area during the
extended forecast period, but it does look like most areas will see
at least a brief reprieve from rain chances on Wednesday and
Thursday.

Wednesday precip potential is still somewhat uncertain as it will be
heavily influenced by possible overnight and early morning
convection. It's possible that a weakening complex of storms rolling
through southern Oklahoma could skirt some of our north/northeastern
zones in the morning where we'll carry "chance" PoPs. A residual
outflow from this convection could support redevelopment in our
eastern zones later in the day, but if no such boundary exists, then
we'll likely remain devoid of sufficient lift for any additional
convection during the daytime despite having a moist and unstable
airmass in place.

Thursday appears to feature the lowest rain chances in recent
memory with most of the area expected to remain dry at this time.
Aside from some low chances for warm advection showers in southern
parts of Central Texas, most precipitation potential should be
squashed by modest upper ridging and a lack of any defined
convective initiation mechanism.

By late Thursday and Friday, strong height falls should spread
across the upper Midwest with a deepening trough which will send
a slow-moving cold front southward into Oklahoma. This boundary
should be capable of initiating widespread convection to our north
which may congeal into one or more complexes that attempt to move
southward into North Texas. This setup could result in
thunderstorms within our forecast area beginning late Thursday
night into Friday, and possibly again Friday into Saturday as
upper troughing persists in the vicinity of the stalled surface
quasi-stationary front. Simply given the environment in place
ahead of this anticipated convection, some storms could
be strong or severe while also possessing a heavy rain threat.
However, any more specific details associated with this type of
MCS activity are rarely discernible very far in advance.

.AVIATION... /NEW/
Update:
/12Z TAFs/

Concerns...Convective threat increasing later this morning and
into the afternoon.

A complex of storms is now moving in from the west with no signs
of weakening anytime soon. An outflow boundary is also draped from
around Bowie to Eastland, moving toward the I-35 corridor. With a
low-level jet in place displacing moisture northward into our
region, expect to see additional showers and storms develop along
the outflow boundary.

Will advertise TSRA for a few hours across North Texas given
weather models are beginning to latch on to the ongoing
convection. The potential for IFR this morning has decreases,
therefore, it will be removed from the forecast.

By this afternoon, some peeks of sunshine will still remain
possible, but we will also have to watch for any potential
isolated showers. VFR appears most probable the latter half of the
afternoon.

By tonight, a deck of low clouds is likely to once again move in
from the south. MVFR appears likely as we go through into tomorrow
morning. We'll also need to monitor for any complex of storms that
develops in West Texas as it's possible we'll have to contend with
additional storms Wednesday morning.
