.AVIATION...
SCATTERED SEVERE CONVECTION ACROSS NORTH TEXAS HAS EVOLVED INTO A
LINE OF CONVECTION FROM NEAR BBT THROUGH THE DFW METROPLEX AND
FURTHER NORTHEAST. THIS LINE WILL APPROACH THE REGION OVER THE
NEXT FEW HOURS AND MAY AFFECT CLL AND UTS AFTER 0730Z. HAVE KEPT
MENTION OF VCSH FOR SITES FURTHER TO THE SOUTH BUT AM EXPECTING
SOME WEAKENING AS CONDITIONS ACROSS SOUTHEAST TEXAS ARE MORE
UNFAVORABLE FOR TSRA ACTIVITY.

OTHERWISE NO MAJOR CHANGES TO TAF REASONING. MVFR CIGS LIKELY
OVERNIGHT WITH PERHAPS SOME IMPROVEMENT BEHIND THE PRECIPITATION
AREA. 38
