THE SYSTEM THAT HAS CAUSED ALL OF THE RECENT ACTIVE WEATHER IS
FINALLY DEPARTING THE REGION TO THE NORTHEAST TONIGHT. NORTHERLY
WINDS WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT ON THURSDAY. A
WIDE RANGE OF HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED, RANGING FROM NEAR 70
OVER THE FAR SOUTHWESTERN PANHANDLE TO THE MID 80S OFF THE CAPROCK.
LATEST MODELS, ESPECIALLY NAM ARE MORE BULLISH WITH REGARDS TO
SHOWERS DEVELOPING ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE DEPARTING TROUGH LATE
THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY MORNING. PERIODS OF HEAVIER SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE, HOWEVER GIVEN THE TIMING AND MUCH MORE COOL, STABLE
AIRMASS, THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT OF A CONCERN.

TO 30 MPH. A DISTURBANCE WILL STALL TO OUR SOUTH AND EAST THIS
