AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AMARILLO TX 321 PM CDT TUE JUL 10 2007 .DISCUSSION... MAIN FORECAST PROBLEMS IN FIRST PERIOD. FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPEARS TO HAVE CLEARED MUCH OF THE PANHANDLES. AS SUCH FOCUS FOR CONVECTION MAY BE SOUTH OF AREA. HOWEVER...NORTHWEST FLOW AND MOUNTAIN CONVECTION ALSO A FLY IN THE OINTMENT. WILL BRUSH POPS DOWNWARD BUT CHANCES WILL REMAIN ESPECIALLY WESTERN AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS AS WE ARE CLOSE ENOUGH TO BOUNDARY AND MOUNTAIN CONVECTION TO WARRANT THOSE CHANCES. REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST REMAINS LARGELY INTACT. CONTINUED TREND OF LOWERING DAYTIME POPS FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...BUT PESKY NORTHWEST FLOW REQUIRES SLIGHT CHANCES FOR DAYTIME PERIOD. CHANCE POPS REMAIN FOR NIGHTTIME PERIODS. MODELS CONSISTENT BRINGING A VIGOROUS FRONT INTO THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE LATE THURSDAY OR EARLY FRIDAY AND SWEEPING THROUGH AREA BY FRIDAY MORNING. THIS MAY ACTUALLY BE OUR OPPORTUNITY TO SEE ORGANIZED CONVECTION WITH THE BEST SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL. MODELS ARE NOW INDICATING MORE OF A NORTH FLOW WITH WESTERN UPPER RIDGE BY SUNDAY...SO DID TREND POPS DOWN FOR THE EVENING HOURS ON SUNDAY. NO SIGNIFICANT POPS FOR SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY TIME FRAME. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WARM NEXT FEW DAYS...BUT STILL GENERALLY BELOW MOST GUIDANCE VALUES. DID BUMP MAX TEMPS UP ON THURSDAY IN ADVANCE OF COLD FRONT AND LOWERED INTO 80S ON FRIDAY BEHIND THE STRONGER FRONT. EXTENDED TEMPERATURES ALSO TAPERED TO NEAR OR BELOW GUIDANCE VALUES. && .AMA WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... TX...NONE. OK...NONE. && GARCIA/BROST/WOODALL
