Flash Flood Warning 231, NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX

DEEP SOUTH TEXAS FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
810 PM CST THU NOV 12 1998

SHOWERS CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHEAST ACROSS ZAPATA COUNTY...AND MAINLY
NORTH OVER THE COASTAL WATERS...A FEW OF WHICH HAVE DRIFTED INTO THE
LAGUNA MADRE AND THE COASTAL COUNTIES. ALL IN ALL NOTHING SIGNIFICANT
AT THE MOMENT...NOR DOES ANYTHING LOOK IMMINENTLY SIGNIFICANT FOR THE
OVERNIGHT PERIOD. SURFACE CHART INDICATES FRONT ORIENTED NNE TO SSW
ACROSS THE EASTERN COUNTIES...FROM UP AROUND CORPUS SOUTHWARD THRU
JUST EAST OF MCALLEN. NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT IN
PLACE FOR TONIGHT...AND BEST LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE REMAINS NORTH AND
OFFSHORE. LOOKS LIKELY THAT WILL KEEP POPS ABOUT WHERE THEY CURRENTLY
ARE AT 20 PERCENT. WILL TWEAK SOME MINIMUMS AND PERHAPS THE WINDS...
BUT NO MAJOR CHANGES PLANNED.

UPPER LOW APPEARS TO HAVE DUG A BIT MORE SOUTH WITH A BIT MORE
INTENSITY THAN MORNING MODELS PROGGED. (ETA DID HAVE DEEPER LOW...BUT
TOO SLOW AS IT PLACED CENTER MUCH FARTHER NORTHWEST). AT PRESENT LOOKS
LIKE MORNING NGM HAD PRETTY GOOD HANDLE ON THE UPPER PATTERN. PROBLEM
IS...ACCORDING TO IT WE SHOULD ALREADY BE GETTING QUITE WET HERE.
OH WELL...EVENING MODEL RUNS NOT FAR OFF...AND HOPEFULLY THEY CAN SHED
SOME LIGHT ON THE UPCOMING SCENARIO.

CWF...STILL DO NOT SEE A NEED FOR SCA FLAG TONIGHT...ALTHO DO THINK
WINDS WILL INCREASE A BIT OVERNIGHT. PROBABLY NEED ONE FOR FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY THO AS WINDS LOONK TO BUMP UP SUFFICIENTLY...WITH SEAS THEN
FOLLOWING.

VALONE...61

RAIN AND SHOWERS...WITH A FEW THUNDERSTORMS IS LIKELY OVER
SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS AND THE HILL COUNTRY TONIGHT.  LIGHT
TO MODERATE RAIN WILL FALL...HOWEVER LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN
COULD SHOW UP...IN THE HEAVIER SHOWERS.

THE WEATHER SYSTEM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RAIN IS NEAR BIG BEND...
AND WILL MOVE EAST AND AFFECT THE AREA TONIGHT.  THE COOL FRONT
LIES NEAR AND JUST OFF THE COAST...WITH SOUTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL
TEXAS LYING IN THE COOL AIR.  WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S AND
WIDESPREAD LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN...A DAMP AND COOL EVENING LIES
AHEAD.  ROADS AND HIGHWAYS WILL CONTINUE SLIPPERY FOR TRAVEL.
CAUTION IS ADVISED AT LOW  WATER CROSSINGS OR OTHER LOW LYING
AREAS...WHERE SOME FLOODING COULD DEVELOP.

AVERAGE RAIN AMOUNTS OF ONE HALF TO 2 INCHES IS POSSIBLE...AND SOME
ISOLATED AREAS...WERE HEAVY RAIN ORGANIZES WELL...MAY RECEAIVE 2 TO
4 INCHES OF RAIN.  AS A RESULT...FLOODING IS STILL POSSIBLE THROUGH
TONIGHT.

A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS FLOODING IS POSSIBLE WITHIN THE
WATCH AREA.  HEAVY RAIN MAY CAUSE THE RAPID RISE OF STREAMS
AND RIVERS...FLOODING LOW LYING AREAS AND LOW WATER CROSSINGS.
OVER FLATTER TERRAIN THE RAINS MAY CAUSE PONDING WHICH MAY
FLOOD LOW LYING AREAS AND LOW ROADWAYS.

PERSONS IN OR NEAR THE WATCH AREA ARE URGED TO CHECK PREPAREDNESS

CROSS AREAS WHERE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY

BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE
DANGERS OF FLOODS AND FLASH FLOODS. IF FLASH FLOODING IS OBSERVED...
ACT QUICKLY. MOVE UP TO ESCAPE FLOOD WATERS. DO NOT STAY IN AREAS
SUBJECT TO FLOODING WHEN WATER BEGINS RISING. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT
AT NIGHT TO TELL HOW MUCH WATER IS ON ROADS. MOTORISTS SHOULD NOT
DRIVE THROUGH WATER OF UNKNOWN DEPTH.
