COULD HAVE PRODUCED 2.0" IN SOME LOCATIONS GIVEN 6Z RUC SHOWING AROUND
1.0" PW AND EL AROUND -60C IN THAT TIME PERIOD.  EXPECTING RATES TO
CONTINUE TO BE 1.0"-2.0"/HR WITH THIS CONVECTION AS IT CONTINUES TO PUSH
EWD THROUGH NRN TX/SRN OK.

BTWN 500Z AND 600Z OVER WRN CROCKETT COUNTY TO NOLAN COUNTY IN W
CNTRL TX AHEAD OF THE DRYLINE.  GIVEN RAPID COOLING TO -65C THROUGH
