STILL LOOKS ACTIVE OVER THE AREA FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS DEEP MOISTURE COMBINES WITH HEATING AND THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A MID/UPPER LOW THAT WILL SAG SOUTH OVER TX. PRECIP FCST BECOMES MUCH MORE UNCERTAIN BY SUN/MON...AS NOT SURE HOW THE WEAKENING UPPER LOW WILL EVOLVE WITH THE SYNOPTIC MID/UPPER FLOW PATTERN.
