AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN ANGELO TX 139 PM CDT TUE APR 25 2006 .SHORT TERM...FRONT NOW TO THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. SOME OVERRUNNING RESULTING IN CLOUDS ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. STILL A SLIM CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORMS CLOSER TO THE FRONT...GENERAL SOUTH OF I-10. WILL REMAIN COOL THROUGH WEDNESDAY. STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM CURRENTLY DROPPING SOUTH ALONG THE WEST COAST...MAY BEGIN TO INFLUENCE THE WEATHER LATE IN THE SHORT TERM PERIOD IN THE FORM OF INCREASING SOUTH WINDS AND MOISTURE. .LONG TERM...BIGGEST CHALLENGE IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL THE APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM. MODELS ARE TRYING TO LOCK INTO A SOLUTION...BUT STILL SOME DIFFERENCES IN PLACEMENT WITH THE DIFFERENT MODEL SOLUTIONS. THE GFS IS A LITTLE SLOWER AND THE NAM IS A LITTLE FASTER WITH THE UPPER LOW. THE PARALELL NAM/WRF HAS THE POSITION GOING WELL TO THE SOUTH IN MEXICO...AND WILL CURRENTLY DISCOUNT THIS SOLUTION. WITH THE GFS TRENDING SLOWER...WILL COMPROMISE BETWEEN THE NAM AND GFS SOLUTIONS...AS THESE TYPES OF SYSTEM DO TEND TO SLOW DOWN AS THE EVENT APPROACHES. SO WITH THAT IN MIND WILL TREND POPS DOWN SOME THROUGHOUT. WITH THE MOST WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION LOOKING TO BE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. THE TRICK IS INDIVIDUAL SHORTWAVES EJECTING OUT OF THE UPPER LOW WILL BE DIFFICULT TO TIME AND LEADS TO CONFIDENCE ISSUES. SO RAIN IS LIKELY OVER MOST OF THE AREA AT SOME POINT FROM THURSDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...TIMING THE 12 HOUR POP IS A LITTLE MORE PROBLEMATIC AT THIS POINT. SO FAR THIS SPRING...HAVE SHOWN LITTLE SKILL IN FORECASTING WARM FRONTAL PLACEMENT THIS FAR IN ADVANCE...WITH THAT SAID...CURRENT FORECAST SHOWS WARM FRONT WILL BE IN THE AREA WITH A TRIPLE POINT LOCATED JUST TO THE WEST OF THE FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY CHANCE POPS THROUGH THAT PERIOD. CAPE AND SHEAR VALUES ARE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OFF THE NAM FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...BUT AGAIN CLOUDS AND WARM FRONTAL PLACEMENT WILL BE THE KEY. THINGS DRY UP AFTER SUNDAY WITH TEMPERATURES STARTING TO CLIMB ONCE AGAIN. BRAZZELL && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
