.AVIATION...
12Z TAF PACKAGE
SCATTERED AREAS OF MVFR CIGS AROUND 020-025 ARE PRESENT AROUND
NORTH TEXAS...BUT HIGH CLOUDS ON SATELLITE ARE MAKING THE
LOCATIONS AND MOVEMENT OF THESE CIGS DIFFICULT TO DETECT. A MORE
EXPANSIVE AREA OF STRATUS CAN BE DETECTED SPREADING NORTH FROM THE
GULF COAST AND INTO THE HILL COUNTRY. WILL PREVAIL BKN MVFR CIGS
AROUND 020 BUT PERIODS OF SCT020 MAY OCCUR THROUGH THE MID MORNING
HOURS. THIS AFTERNOON...WILL INTRODUCE VCSH AS CIGS LOWER TO
AROUND 008-010 BUT ONLY DRIZZLE OR LIGHT RAIN IS EXPECTED AND NO
IMPACTS ARE EXPECTED FROM ANY PRECIPITATION.
TONIGHT...IT APPEARS THAT SKIES WILL MOSTLY CLEAR AHEAD OF A COLD
FRONT THAT WILL PASS THROUGH THE METROPLEX SITES AROUND 07/06Z AND
KACT AROUND 07/10Z. AS THE SKIES CLEAR AND WINDS BECOME
LIGHT...FOG IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THAT WILL RESULT IN IFR
VISIBILITIES. THE FOG SHOULD CLEAR AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH.
