AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO TX
754 PM CDT SAT JUN 4 2005

.UPDATE...
RADAR AND SOUNDING DATA SUGGESTS CAP EROSION HAS TAKEN PLACE FROM THE
MID LEVELS AS ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVER THE RIO
GRANDE PLAINS. A FEW OF THESE SEVERE STORMS COULD PRODUE SEVERE WEATHER
WITH DAMAGING WINDS BEING THE LARGEST THREAT. WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE
OF RAIN TO INCLUDE SLIGHT POPS FOR THE I-35 CORRIDOR FOR MAINLY THIS
EVENING. POPS ARE SHIFTING TO FOCUS OVER OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES WHERE
HIGHER SURFACE WINDS AND DEWPOINTS ARE NOTED. THE CHANCE OF RAIN SHOULD
GRADUALLY DECREASE WITH THE LOSS OF SOLAR HEATING SO WILL LEAVE THE
NO MENTION AFTER MIDNIGHT ALONE FOR NOW.  THE REST OF THE FORECAST IS
IN GOOD SHAPE.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 245 PM CDT SAT JUN 4 2005/

DISCUSSION...
THERE WILL BE TWO AREAS OF CONVECTIVE INITIATION THIS AFTERNOON. THE FIRST
WILL BE ALONG THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE SIERRA MADRE AND THE SECOND IS THE
WEST TEXAS DRYLINE. ATTM ISOLATED STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN MEXICO WEST OF
DEL RIO. ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE DRYLINE WHICH
EXTENDS FROM NEAR DRYDEN TO SWEETWATER. A WEAK DISTURBANCE IN THE SOUTHERN
BRANCH OF THE JET WAS LOCATED OVER NORTHEAST MEXICO AND THIS FEATURE WILL
HELP WEAKEN THE CAP AND ASSIST IN THE EASTWARD PROPAGATION OF THE CONVECTION.
A FEW STORMS MAY BECOME SEVERE THIS EVENING ACROSS THE EDWARDS PLATEAU WITH
LARGE HAIL BEING THE PRIMARY THREAT. THE CONVECTION WILL WEAKEN LATE THIS
EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF AFTERNOON HEATING AND THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE.

SUNDAY LOOKS TO BE A NEAR REPEAT OF TODAY WITH LATE NIGHT STRATUS DEVELOPING
UNDERNEATH THE CAPPING INVERSION. THE STRATUS WILL PERSIST INTO THE LATE
MORNING WITH SKIES BECOMING PARTLY CLOUDY AFTER NOONTIME.  ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON ALONG
THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE SIERRA MADRE. THE GFS IS DEPICTING ANOTHER WEAK
DISTURBANCE MOVING EAST ACROSS NORTHERN MEXICO IN THE SOUTHERN BRANCH OF
THE JET. THUS HAVE INCLUDED ISOLATED POPS ALONG THE RIO GRANDE FOR LATE
SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY EVENING.

THE UPCOMING WORK WEEK WILL FEATURE LITTLE CHANGE IN DAY TO DAY TEMPERATURES.
THE LATE NIGHT AND MORNING STRATUS PATTERN WILL ALSO PERSIST. THERE WAS SOME
CONCERN ABOUT SEA-BREEZE CONVECTION BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. ATTM 500MB
HEIGHTS ARE MARGINAL BUT BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS APPEAR TO BE TOO STRONG FOR
CONVECTION TO INITIATE ON THE SEA-BREEZE FRONT ALONG THE MIDDLE AND LOWER
TEXAS COAST.

EXTENDED MODELS SUGGEST THAT AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL WARM TO 6 TO 8 DEGREES
ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING IS DEPICTED OVER TEXAS BY THE GFSLR AND DGEX. THIS
FEATURE COMBINED WITH THE SOIL DRYING OUT WILL HELP TO PUSH AFTERNOON
TEMPS UPWARD.
