..DISCUSSION
..DAYS 4-6/SUN-TUE -- SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE TN VALLEY
AN UPPER LOW AND ATTENDANT TROUGH OVER THE SOUTHWEST/NORTHERN MEXICO
WILL EJECT EAST INTO THE PLAINS BY EARLY DAY 5/MONDAY. GULF
MOISTURE WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD ACROSS PORTIONS OF TX INTO THE LOWER
MS VALLEY THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY. THIS MOISTURE RETURN WILL OCCUR
AHEAD OF THE EJECTING TROUGH/INCREASING DEEP-LAYER SOUTHWESTERLY
FLOW, AND A COLD FRONT SWEEPING ACROSS THE REGION. WARM ADVECTION
WILL SUPPORT THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT BY LATE SUNDAY AS THE UPPER
TROUGH AND COLD FRONT BEGIN TO MARCH ACROSS TX, AND SOME HAIL RISK
COULD ACCOMPANY THIS ACTIVITY. HOWEVER, STORM MODE COULD PRECLUDE A
GREATER RISK, AND STORM COVERAGE/INTENSITY IS UNCERTAIN GIVEN
OVERNIGHT TIMING.
AS THIS SYSTEM CONTINUES EAST ACROSS THE ARKLATEX INTO THE LOWER MS
VALLEY ON MONDAY, SOME SEVERE POTENTIAL COULD PERSIST INTO THESE
AREAS. HOWEVER, UNCERTAINTY REGARDING MOISTURE RETURN AND DEGREE OF
DESTABILIZATION DUE TO POTENTIALLY ONGOING AND WIDESPREAD TRAINING
PRECIPITATION PRECLUDES SEVERE PROBABILITIES AT THIS TIME. SOME RISK
COULD CONTINUE ACROSS PARTS OF THE TN VALLEY/SOUTHEAST INTO TUESDAY.
HOWEVER, THE UPPER TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO BE WEAKENING AND LIFTING
WELL NORTH OF THE REGION BY THIS TIME.
..DAYS 7-8/WED-THU
THE SURFACE FRONT WILL MOVE OFFSHORE ON DAY 7/WED AND STRONG SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS MUCH OF THE CONUS. THIS WILL RESULT
IN DRY AND COLDER CONDITIONS, LEADING TO A STABLE AIRMASS. SEVERE
POTENTIAL APPEARS LOW MID TO LATE IN THE WEEK.
