.DISCUSSION...

LOW PRESSURE ENTERING THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS TONIGHT WILL MOVE
THROUGH OUR REGION THURSDAY. A SCATTERING OF SHOWERS AND SOME
THUNDER OVERNIGHT WILL BECOME MORE NUMEROUS THURSDAY AS MOISTURE
INCREASES AND OTHER PARAMETERS BECOME MORE FAVORABLE FOR STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. THE AREA COVERED BY PRECIPITATION WILL
LIKELY DECREASE FRIDAY INTO A PART OF SATURDAY BEFORE THE ACTIVITY
INCREASES ONCE AGAIN. ONCE MOISTENING BEGINS THURSDAY EXPECT
HUMIDITY MINIMA TO BE HIGHER THROUGH THE WEEKEND...FROM THE MID
40S TO NEAR 60 PERCENT. SOUTHERLY QUADRANT WINDS THURSDAY WILL
SWITCH TO MORE NORTHERLY ON FRIDAY.
