National Weather Service Fort Worth Texas 
356 PM CDT Thursday Aug 7 2008 


Discussion... 
a weak cold front that extended from south of Oklahoma City... 
McAlester and Delaware Queen Arkansas as of 20z...will continue move 
south into North Texas tonight. We will see a chance of showers 
and thunderstorms mainly across the northern half/two thirds of 
North Texas overnight through Friday night. The front will lift 
back to the north Friday night and Saturday morning. The forecast 
for the weekend into the early part of next week depends on how 
much the ridge holds in. With northwesterly flow aloft on the 
east side of the ridge...there will be a slight chance of 
thunderstorms Saturday through Sunday mainly northeast half of 
North Texas. Have just placed low probability of precipitation across the northeast 
Monday and north on Tuesday with dry weather for Wednesday. We 
should see a chance of showers and thunderstorms across most 
areas by Thursday as another shortwave slides down across the 
region. 58
