.DISCUSSION...
ACTIVE DAY ACROSS NORTH TEXAS FOR SURE. DRY LINE HAS PUSHED TO THE
EAST...AND LINGERING THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST AS
WELL. HAVE LOCALLY EXTENDED THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL 5
PM FOR AREAS WISH ONGOING CONVECTION. EXPECT THE SEVERE RISK TO BE
TO THE EAST OF OUR COUNTIES BY NIGHTFALL. WIND SPEEDS HAVE BEEN
STRONG TO THE WEST OF THE DRY LINE...WHERE WIND GUSTS HAVE BEEN AS
HIGH AS 40 MPH. THESE WINDS WILL BEGIN TO RELAX BY 6 PM OR SO AS
WELL...AND THE REST OF THE NIGHT SHOULD SEE MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND
CALMER CONDITIONS.
THE FORECAST REMAINS PRETTY MUCH ON TRACK AS THE PAST COUPLE OF
DAYS. STILL LOOKING FOR ANOTHER BRIEF SHOT AT RAIN BY THURSDAY
NIGHT AS THE NEXT SPOKE OF ENERGY MOVES ACROSS THE AREA UNDERNEATH
THE UPPER LOW. BETTER CHANCES FOR RAIN CREEP BACK INTO THE
FORECAST BY MONDAY AS THE NEXT UPPER LOW APPROACHES NORTH TEXAS
FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE EUROPEAN AND GFS SOLUTIONS FOR THIS NEXT
SYSTEM ARE A BIT DIFFERENT...WITH THE EUROPEAN SOLUTION SLIGHTLY
STRONGER AND SLOWER. HAVE KEPT LOW END POPS FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT...BUT LARGE UNCERTAINTY REMAINS FOR FORECAST SCENARIOS
THROUGH MIDWEEK.
TIDBIT OF THE DAY: WHILE THE TEMPERATURE DID RISE INTO THE LOW TO
MIDDLE 70S THIS AFTERNOON...WE ARE NOW AT 141 STRAIGHT DAYS BELOW
80 DEGREES. THIS PUT US IN A TIE FOR 7TH PLACE ALL TIME AT
DFW...AND THE CURRENT FORECAST WILL CALL FOR SEVEN MORE DAYS BELOW
80.
