THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD CONTINUE TO PROGRESS TO THE SOUTHEAST
AS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH FROM THE NORTHERN ROCKIES HELPS MOVE IT
TOWARD THE ATLANTIC COAST. DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS...MUCH OF THE
FRONT SHOULD BECOME A LESS ACTIVE PRECIPITATION PRODUCER.
HOWEVER...AREAS FROM THE TEXAS PANHANDLE EASTWARD INTO WESTERN
TENNESSEE CAN EXPECT TO SEE 1 TO 2 INCHES OF ADDITIONAL RAINFALL.
MANY OF THE OTHER AREAS WHICH HAVE RECENTLY BEEN RECEIVING HEAVY
RAINFALL SHOULD SEE AMOUNTS OF LESS THAN AN INCH.
THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
PREDICTION CENTER AT 1000 PM CDT SUNDAY. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR
LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ON THIS EVENT.
