AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CORPUS CHRISTI TX
224 PM CDT THU OCT 27 2005

.SHORT TERM...INTERESTING SFC PATTERN THIS AFTN WITH FRONTAL
BOUNDARY STRETCHED FROM JUST NORTH OF COT TO NIR TO PKV. THIS
BOUNDARY HAS BEEN LIFTING NORTH IN RESPONSE TO APPROACHING UPPER
S/W WHICH IS NOW LOCATED OVER CENTRAL TX. INCREASING ASCENT AHEAD
OF THIS FEATURE AND EXCELLENT MOISTURE CONVERGENCE ACROSS THE AREA
ALONG WITH AFTN HEATING HAS RESULTED IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. COLD MID LEVEL TEMPS AND MODERATE SHEAR WILL HELP
MAINTAIN SOME STRONG STORMS WITH HAIL AND WIND GUSTS BEING THE
PRIMARY THREAT THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTN. UPPER LOW WILL
MOVE TO THE EAST OF THE AREA LATER THIS EVENING...WITH HIGH
PRESSURE AND DRIER MOVING IN FROM THE NORTHEAST AND POPS TAPERING
OFF FROM NORTHEAST TO SOUTHWEST. WILL HAVE MENTION OF SCATTERED
SHOWERS/TSTMS IN THROUGH THE EVENING...THEN LOWER TO SLIGHT CHANCE
OUT WEST WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER LOW. STRONG PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL KEEP WINDS UP THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING.
WILL KEEP THE FORECAST DRY FOR FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT.

.MARINE...WILL HAVE SCA CONDS OVER ALL BUT THE NORTHERN BAYS FOR
THIS EVENING THROUGH TONIGHT. TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT HAS LED TO
WINDS IN THE 20 TO 25 KNOT RANGE. WINDS WILL BEGIN TO RELAX LATER
FRIDAY MORNING.

&&

.LONG-TERM (SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)...FAIR WEATHER WILL BE ON TAP
FOR THE WEEKEND AS WEAK DEEP LAYER RIDGING WILL TAKE PLACE OVER
SOUTH TX.  LOW-LEVEL RIDGE AXIS WILL SLIDE EASTWARD SUNDAY ALLOWING
FOR BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS TO BECOME MORE SOUTHEASTERLY.  THIS WILL
ADVECT GULF MOISTURE INTO THE REGION SUNDAY...AS IS EVIDENT BY
INCREASING PWAT VALUES.  MODEL GUIDANCE ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
AN UPPER TROUGH DIGGING INTO WEST TEXAS BY MIDDAY MONDAY.  A COLD
FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH IS PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH
THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT/EARLY TUESDAY MORNING.  WITH THE
AFOREMENTIONED DEEP MOISTURE...APPROACHING FRONT...AND UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT...BELIEVE HIGH END CHANCE POPS ARE WARRANTED FOR THE EAST
CWFA...WHERE THE DEEPEST MOISTURE IS PROGGED TO BE LOCATED...AND
TRENDED TO LOW END CHANCE POPS OVER THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS DURING THE
SAME TIME FRAME.  WENT NEAR GUIDANCE IN REGARDS TO TEMPS BEHIND THE
FRONT.  H85 TEMPS COOL ONLY BY 2C AND THICKNESS VALUES SLIGHTLY
DECREASE TUESDAY.  DRIER AIR WILL ALSO FILTER IN BEHIND THE FRONT
ALLOWING FOR MAXIMUM ISOLATION.  H5 RIDGE WILL BUILD IN FROM MEXICO
AND ALLOW FOR A MORE ZONAL PATTERN TO SET UP WEDNESDAY.  LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL BE ON THE INCREASE ONCE AGAIN THURSDAY AS WINDS ARE
PROGGED TO BECOME SOUTHEASTERLY IN RESPONSE TO A DEEPENING LOW
PRESSURE CENTER TREKKING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS.
