ALSO UPDATED HOURLY GRIDS. 91/DUNN && .AVIATION... VERY DIFFICULT PATTERN TO ASSESS...BUT WE/LL MAINTAIN MVFR/LOCALIZED IFR THREAT THROUGH THIS EVENING...WITH VCTS/TSRA WORDING GOING IN EFFECT BY 20Z/AFTER...AS LARGE-SCALE ASCENT FROM UPR TROUGH IS NOW BEGINNING TO OUR WEST...WITH WARM FNT NOW MAKING IT/S WAY INTO AREAS JUST SW OF N TX TAF SITES. WILL ALSO GRADUALLY VEER WINDS TO SLY BY THIS EVENING... THEN SWLY BY TUES MORNING...AS PACIFIC FNT OVERRUNS DRYLINE AND START PUSHING INTO N TX BY 12Z TUES. ALSO...XPCT MAINLY VFR CONDS BY 09Z OVER MOST TAF SITES...AS LOW LVL AIRMASS AND BEST LIFT PUSH TO THE EAST OF THE REGION. 05/ && .UPDATE... ONLY SOME MINOR CHANGES TO THE CURRENT FORECAST THIS MORNING BASED ON LATEST RADAR OBSERVATIONS. AREA OF STRONG ISENTROPIC ASCENT CONTINUES ACROSS NORTH TEXAS INTO OKLAHOMA WHERE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ONGOING. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS ARE BEGINNING TO DEVELOP AGAIN FARTHER SOUTH. HAVE LOWERED THE POPS A BIT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE MORNING AND KEPT THIS AFTERNOON UNTOUCHED. STILL A LITTLE UNCERTAINTY AS TO HOW THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING UNFOLDS BUT POTENTIAL REMAINS FOR A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE THROUGH TONIGHT. LATEST PALESTINE PROFILER AND NAM/RUC SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA SHOW EXTREME 0-3KM SHEAR AND HELICITY VALUES WITH LARGE CURVED HODOGRAPHS. MODEL GUIDANCE DIFFERS WITH RESPECT TO INSTABILITY...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE MORE AGGRESSIVE NAM SOLUTION WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE A BETTER HANDLE ON THE MID/UPPER 60S DEWPOINTS FARTHER TO THE SOUTH. A SURGING WARM FRONT SHOULD PUT AT LEAST THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA INTO THE WARM SECTOR BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY AROUND 500J/KG. GIVEN THE EXTREME SHEAR...SUPERCELLS ARE LIKELY WITH A FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT TORNADO THREAT. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR LATEST MESOSCALE TRENDS... 91/DUNN && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 422 AM CST MON NOV 10 2008/ AN ACTIVE WEATHER DAY IS UNFOLDING ACROSS NORTH TEXAS AS STRONG UPPER LEVEL CLOSED LOW CONTINUES A STEADY MARCH THROUGH THE FOUR CORNERS REGION INTO THE PLAINS. INTENSE ISENTROPIC LIFT EARLY THIS MORNING HAS ALREADY RESULTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ELEVATED SHOWERS AND STORMS AS PARCELS FORCED UP AND OVER THE LINGERING COOL AIRMASS AT THE SURFACE REACH THEIR LFC AND CONVECT WITHIN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS. EXPECT SHOWERS AND STORMS TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND STREAM NORTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING...WITH AMPLE DEEP LAYER SHEAR/INSTABILITY PRESENT FOR ISOLATED ELEVATED SEVERE SUPERCELLS WITH HAIL. ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY WANE DURING THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS AS LOW LEVEL JET WEAKENS/AND COLD LAYER MODIFIES...EFFECTIVELY ENDING ISENTROPIC LIFTING MECHANISM. HOWEVER...REGION WILL REMAIN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DYNAMIC/QG FORCING FROM SHORTWAVE TO THE WEST...WITH DRYLINE LIKELY BECOMING THE PLAYER THIS AFTERNOON. NAM/GFS FORECASTS SHOW INCREASING LIFT AS A MID LEVEL VORTICITY LOBE ROUNDS THE UPPER LOW THIS EVENING...SETTING THE STAGE FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL ALSO SURGE ABOVE 1.5 INCHES TODAY...AND SEVERAL MODELS ARE INDICATING A THREAT FOR HEAVY RAINFALL THIS EVENING. ENVIRONMENT HAS ALL THE CLASSIC COOL-SEASON SIGNATURES FOR AN OUTBREAK OF SEVERE WEATHER. AND JUST LIKE TRYING TO FORECAST ANY COOL-SEASON EVENT...SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY APPEARS TO BE THE PRIMARY LIMITING FACTOR OR QUESTIONABLE INGREDIENT. MODELS FORECAST A WARM FRONT TO SHARPEN/ORGANIZE TODAY...WITH BOTH THE RUC/NAM FORECASTS INDICATING THAT IT WILL ENTER THE SW ZONES EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AND MAKE GRADUAL PROGRESS NORTHEAST ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA TONIGHT. NAM/GFS AND SREF PROBABILITIES DEPICT MODEST SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY OF 500 J/KG MOVING INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE WARM FRONT...WHILE LOW LEVEL SHEAR PROFILES FEATURE 0-3KM SRH FROM 300-500 M2/S2 WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR. WITH LIMITED INSTABILITY...MESOSCALE/STORM SCALE INTERACTIONS WILL DETERMINE WHETHER TORNADO POTENTIAL WILL BECOME REALIZED. THE BOTTOM LINE...POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR TORNADOES TODAY...ESPECIALLY AREAS SOUTH OF A PALESTINE TO CLEBURNE TO BRECKENRIDGE LINE. CANT RULE OUT ISOLATED TORNADOES NORTH OF THIS LINE THIS EVENING...BUT IT WILL DEPEND ON HOW FAR NORTH THE WARM FRONT MAKES IT. TONIGHTS ROUND OF STORMS SHOULD GRADUALLY MOVE OFF TO THE SOUTHEAST WITH DRIER AIR MOVING INTO THE REGION. MODELS CONTINUE TO BACK OFF ON THE PUSH OF DRY/STABLE AIR INTO THE REGION TUESDAY...AND HAVE MOISTURE LINGERING ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE AREA UNTIL UPPER TROUGH AXIS FINALLY SWINGS THROUGH EARLY THURSDAY. WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW HIGH POPS OVER THE SOUTHEAST ZONES TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WITH SOME LOW CHANCES OF SHOWERS ACROSS CENTRAL AND NW ZONES. UNCERTAINTY IS HIGH WITH THE POPS IN THE MIDWEEK TIME FRAME...BUT BEST TO HEDGE THE FORECAST WITH THE MOISTURE NOT GETTING SCOURED OUT AND UPPER LEVEL ENERGY CONTINUING TO MOVE OVER THE REGION. A WEAK FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA FRIDAY...BUT HIGHLY AMPLIFIED UPPER LEVEL PATTERN WILL SEND MUCH COLDER AIR SOUTHWARD INTO THE CONUS BY THE WEEKEND. MOST OF THE COLD AIR WILL HEAD EASTWARD...BUT A SIGNIFICANT COOL DOWN IS EXPECTED FOR NORTH TEXAS. TR.92 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... DALLAS-FT.
