...New Short Term, Aviation...

.SHORT TERM... /NEW/
/Through Friday/

The severe weather event is coming together as expected with a
well defined squall line currently extending from southern
Oklahoma to the Concho Valley. This line is moving east at 45 mph
and producing large hail, damaging winds and even a few
tornadoes. The line is fairly narrow and storms will not last long
in any one locations but they will pack a punch. We will keep PoPs
very high this evening since nearly all locations will see
measurable precipitation. Once the line exits to the east very
strong west to northwest winds will move in behind it with gusts
in excess of 40 mph likely. Therefore, we will keep the Wind
Advisory going from 8 PM through 10 AM Friday.

Clouds will be slow to clear as moisture wraps around the
departing upper low but a steady clearing from west to east will
occur after sunrise Friday. It will be much cooler and breezy
Friday with highs mainly in the 60s.

.LONG TERM... /Issued 130 PM CST Thu Mar 2 2023/
/Friday night Onward/

Much more tranquil weather is expected over the weekend and early
next week as zonal flow dominate the pattern aloft. A mid-level
disturbance is forecast to move into the Central Plains Saturday
morning sending a weak cold front southward. We don't anticipate
much of an impact across our area as this front is expected to
lose its push as it approaches our northern counties. Some
locations near the Red River will see a wind shift to the north
Saturday afternoon, but no precipitation is anticipated.
Otherwise, a warming trend will take place over the weekend with
highs in the 70s on Saturday and 70s to low 80s on Sunday.

The unseasonably warmer temperatures and breezy conditions
continue early next week with highs 10-20 degrees above normal for
early March. Afternoon highs will range from the mid 70s to low
80s area wide. The overnight temperatures will also stay on the
warm side with lows in the 50s/60s. With an established southerly
flow, we will also see increasing humidity and mostly cloudy
skies especially during the morning hours. The next upper level
system is forecast to arrive during the mid-week period with
several rounds of showers and storms Tuesday afternoon through at
least next Thursday.

.AVIATION... /NEW/
/00Z TAFs/

An intense line of thunderstorms will move across the Metroplex
TAF sites between 00Z and 02Z with a slightly later time window
for Waco. This line of storms will likely result in ground stops
at all airports but the most intense part of the line will exit to
the east between 02Z and 03Z with only some lingering light rain
and occasional lightning through the evening. The wrap around
moisture will result in some post-frontal MVFR stratus, mainly at
the Metroplex airports. All ceilings should scatter just after
sunrise with VFR through the day Friday.

A strong and gusty west to northwest wind will prevail behind the
line of storms with sustained speeds between 20 and 30 knot and
gusts in excess of 35 knots. These speeds will decrease through
the day Friday as the wind becomes more northwesterly. These winds
will result in some major crosswind issues for much of the night
and morning Friday.
