Severe Thunderstorm Warning 29, NWS Corpus Christi, TX

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CORPUS CHRISTI TX
228 PM CDT SUN MAY 8 2005

.SHORT-TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)...TORNADO WATCH TIL 7 PM
OVER THE NORTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES.  MOST OF THE STRONGEST
CONVECTION REMAINS TO THE NORTH OF THE CWFA.  STILL A POTENTIAL WITH
DAYTIME HEATING TO GET STRONGER DEVELOPMENT IN OUR AREA.  HOWEVER...
FURTHER WEST CONVECTION WILL BE INHIBITED SLIGHTLY BY BACK SIDE OF
UPPER VORT WHOSE MAIN INFLUENCE WILL BE TO THE EAST OF THE AREA. FOR
NOW...EXPECT TO JUST KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION OVER THE
NORTH AND EAST.  EXPECT RAIN TO END BEFORE MIDNIGHT.  CLOUDS WILL
RETURN OVERNIGHT OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE AREA.  WILL SEE SOME
PATCHY FOG OVER INLAND WEST AREAS BUT NO FURTHER THAN EASTERN DUVAL
AND EASTERN MCMULLEN COUNTIES.  WILL STAY ON THE HIGH SIDE OF
GUIDANCE OR GO JUST ABOVE THAT.  SUBSIDENCE AREA WITH LESS MOISTURE
TO WORK WITH ON MONDAY AS UPPER RIDGE BEGINS TO MOVE IN.  COULD NOT
RULE OUT A VERY ISOLATED CELL OR TWO BUT AT THIS TIME PREFER TO KEEP
THE FORECAST DRY WITH THE DRIER AND MORE SUBSIDENT AIRMASS (ALSO
BETTER CAP).  NO RAIN TO MENTION ON MONDAY NIGHT.  LOW LEVEL JET MAY
BE TOO STRONG FOR FOG ON MONDAY NIGHT SO HAVE NOT MENTIONED AT THIS
TIME.  AGAIN...GENERALLY STAYED ON THE WARM SIDE OF GUIDANCE FOR
MONDAYS AND MONDAY NIGHTS TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION...JUST KEPT THUNDER IN THE VCT TAF EARLY TONIGHT OTHERWISE
EXPECT CONVECTION TO BE NORTH OF THE AREA BY 00Z.  EXPECT TO SEE
SOME CIGS BELOW MVFR OVER KALI AND KVCT...WITH MVFR CIGS OVR KCRP
AND VFR OVR LRD.  PATCHY FOG INLAND CENTRAL SECTIONS TONIGHT...WITH
VSBYS 1/2SM OVR KALI AS WINDS LIGHTEN UP AND GET SOME RADIATIONAL
COOLING.  CIGS AND VSBYS WILL RISE WITH THE SUN...WITH VFR EXPECTED
OVER ALL AREAS EXCEPT KVCT BFR 18Z.

&&

.MARINE...WILL BE BORDERLINE SCA THIS EVENING FOR ALL MARINE
CONCERNS WITH THE STRONGER WINDS FOR THE SOUTHERN BAYS AND NEARSHORE
WATERS.  SCA CAN PROBABLY BE LIFTED FOR 1030PM UPDATE.  MORE LIKELY
WILL SEE SCEC THAN SCA FOR MONDAY AS BOUNDARY LAYER GRADIENT NOT AS
STRONG...ALTHOUGH WILL SEE SOME GOOD DAYTIME HEATING AND SEA-BREEZE
CIRCULATION TOMORROW AND TOMORROW NIGHT.

&&

.LONG-TERM (TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE
EXTENDED FORECAST.  UPPER RIDGING WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTH TEXAS TUES
AND WED RESULTING IN ONLY PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND NO REAL CHANCE OF
ANY PRECIP.  RIDGE AXIS WILL SLIDE OFF TO THE EAST ON WEDNESDAY AS
NEXT STRONG UPPER LOW MOVES INTO THE SOUTHWEST US.  SEVERAL SURFACE
LOWS WILL DEVELOP IN THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES FROM THE TX PANHANDLE
INTO WESTERN KANSAS.  PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL REMAIN FAIRLY TIGHT
THROUGH THE PERIOD...ESPECIALLY ON WED AND THU...SO WILL CONTINUE
WITH THE BREEZY/WINDY WORDING DURING THE AFTERNOONS.  DRYLINE WILL
SET UP OVER THE BIG BEND REGION WITH MODERATELY UNSTABLE
AFTERNOONS...SHOULD SEE SOME CONVECTION DEVELOP OUT THERE ON
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.  WEAK VORTICITY MAXIMA WILL ROTATE AROUND THE
SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LOW THURSDAY NIGHT AND
FRIDAY...WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM TO MAKE IT
INTO THE FAR WESTERN COUNTIES.  WILL HAVE 20 POPS FOR LATE THU NIGHT
AND LATE FRI NIGHT OVER THE WESTERN TWO COUNTIES.  STILL LOOKS
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL ON TEMPS THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...WITH
LITTLE PRECIP OTHER THAN AN ISOLATED SEA BREEZE SHOWER OR TSTM ON
FRI/SAT.
