AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 203 PM CDT WED JUN 26 2002 NOT A TON OF CHANGES IN THE CURRENT FORECAST AS H5 LOW CONTINUES TO SPIN ACROSS NE TX. WE WILL HOWEVER START TO SEE LESSENING CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...AT LEAST FOR THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN ZONES...AS H5 LOW OPENS UP...WEAKENS A BIT...AND SLIDES A LITTLE EAST. THIS WILL ALSO ALLOW TEMPS TO NUDGE UP A COUPLE OF DEGREES. THERE IS ALSO SOME QUESTION ABOUT A POSSIBLE MCS MOVING SOUTH OUT OF THE PLAINS AND INTO WEST TEXAS. NOT A LOT OF CONFIDENCE IN THIS ATTM...BUT WILL NOT LIMIT STORMS TO THIS EVENING IN CASE THIS OCCURS. FURTHER IN THE SHORT TERM... H5 RIDGE BECOMES MORE ESTABLISHED ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS...WHILE A GENERAL WEAK TROUGH...WITH TROPICAL MOISTURE LINGERS ACROSS EAST TEXAS AND LA. AS LONG AS THE TROUGH AND MOISTURE REMAIN...PRECIP CHANCES WILL ALSO LINGER...BUT MAINLY FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.
