Area forecast discussion 
National Weather Service Fort Worth Texas 
257 am CDT Friday may 24 2013 


Discussion... 
convection over the Edwards Plateau this morning has spun up an 
mesoscale convective vortex...which is forecast to move east-northeast into southwestern North Texas. 
This forcing should kick up more convection as seen in European model (ecmwf) and 
GFS. NAM forecasts new convection in the northern Texas Panhandle this 
morning...but recent radar shows that convection is weakening so 
have disregarded the NAM/S solution of a southeast-moving mesoscale convective system 
moving into western counties. Both solutions are wet for the 
area...just a difference on mechanisms and local precipitation amounts. 


There is also a short wave just off of central Baja California that should 
track east-northeast and move into our area this afternoon or 
evening...adding support to the forecast of convection moving light snow shower 
NE this afternoon/evening. Not all areas will see rain...but cannot 
eliminate any areas given differences in model precipitation 
forecasts so probability of precipitation extend across all of North Texas. 


Will keep lows mainly in the 70s and highs in the middle-upper 80s 
through Sunday due to fairly high cloud cover. Next week moderate 
ridging aloft and decreasing clouds will allow slightly cooler 
mornings and warmer afternoons. GFS/Euro continue to differ on 
precipitation chances late in the week so will not forecast rain in the 
extended. 84
