NOT SURE WHETHER CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY MOVING TOWARDS AREA IS FORERUNNER OF THIS COMING EARLY...OR A SEPARATE ROUND.

ETA DEVELOPS SEVERAL PERIODS OF GOOD UPPER LEVEL DIRECTIONAL DIVERGENCE THRU WEEKEND...DUE TO COMPLEX BENDINGS OF SOUTHERN STREAM JET. AVN PINPOINTS CENTRAL TX IN STRONG KINKING OF SOUTHERN STREAM...POSSIBLE SOURCE REGION OF A LATE FRIDAY NIGHT MCS. THE EXTENDED PERIOD WILL BE SOMEWHAT DEPENDENT ON THE EVENTUAL MOVEMENT OF A STALLING FRONT OVER THE REGION ON MONDAY. FOR NOW... GOING WITH CHANCE SOUTH OF FRONT...SLIGHT CHANCE NORTH...WITH ASSUMPTION FRONT MOVES SOUTH TOWARDS THE GULF BY TUESDAY. LEAVING IN LOW CHANCE BEHIND FRONT AS IT APPEARS MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO WRAP BACK FROM E-NE FLOW.
