.DISCUSSION...
THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE THAT BROUGHT SOME VOLATILE WEATHER
TO SOUTHEAST TEXAS YESTERDAY HAS MOVED INTO NORTHEAST TEXAS THIS
MORNING. THIS FEATURE WILL SLOWLY MOVE NORTHEAST TODAY BUT STILL
MAY IMPACT OUR NORTHWEST ZONES OF INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS DUE TO
A VORTICITY LOBE BRUSHING OUR AREA. HIGHEST POPS WILL BE ACROSS
INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND LOWERING RAPIDLY AS ONE MOVES AWAY
FROM UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. AFTER TODAY...LOOKS LIKE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL MOVE INTO OUR REGION PROVIDING FOR DRIER AND STABLE CONDITIONS.
