   ...DISCUSSION...
   WHILE THE 19/00Z GFS AND ECMWF WERE CONSISTENT IN MAINTAINING A DEEP
   CLOSED LOW OVER THE SRN/CENTRAL PLAINS MOST OF THE FORECAST
   PERIOD...BOTH 12Z RUNS WERE MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH A DEEP TROUGH
   SHIFTING EWD INTO THE ERN PORTIONS OF THE COUNTRY BY MID WEEK.
   LATEST MREF MORE CLOSELY RESEMBLES THE 18/12Z GFS/EURO WITH A DEEP
   TROUGH MOVING EWD INTO THE ERN STATES WED/THU. ALTHOUGH THE CLOSED
   LOW SOLUTION WOULD RESULT IN A BAROTROPIC SITUATION AND LOW THREAT
   FOR SEVERE...THE DEEP PROGRESSIVE TROUGH SOLUTION WOULD FAVOR A
   THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS ALONG THE CENTRAL/ERN GULF COASTAL STATES
   MON-WED. HOWEVER...THE EXTREME MODEL VARIABILITY FROM RUN TO RUN
   PRECLUDES A SEVERE WEATHER THREAT AREA.
