...There is a Marginal Risk of Excessive Rainfall Across Portions
of the Southern Plains on Friday...

A southern stream shortwave should be making its way into portions
of the Southern Plains Friday afternoon/evening. Precipitation is expected
to develop and spread quickly into the south-central states from 
Friday into early Saturday morning. Given antecedent
conditions...rainfall from this system should generally be
beneficial. There is uncertainty with respect to how much the
southern stream shortwave phases with the northern stream as it
moves across the southern half of the country and there are still
some signals for there to be window of opportunity for training of
cells in a region with above moisture anomalies. As such...the
Marginal risk area was fairly broad to capture the range of
solutions shown by the suite of 00Z guidance.
