AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
930 AM CST WED MAR 2 2005

.UPDATE...
LARGE AREA OF RAIN SPREADING ACROSS SE TX THIS MORNING. RAIN WILL
REACH THE HOUSTON AREA IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS AND THE COAST
BY EARLY AFTERNOON. HAVE SEEN A FEW LIGHTNING STRIKES FROM TIME TO
TIME BUT MOSTLY HAS BEEN LIGHT STRATIFORM PRECIPITATION. WARM
FRONT SHOWS UP NICELY FROM ABOUT COLUMBUS TO GALVESTON. SOUTH OF
THE FRONT DEWPOINTS HAVE RISEN INTO THE UPPER 50S WHILE NORTH OF
FRONT TEMPS/DEWPOINTS ARE IN THE LOWER TO MID 40S. OVER OUR
FAR SW ZONES (SOUTH OF THE FRONT) ENOUGH INSTABILITY WILL EXIST
FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS IS ALREADY COVERED IN THE HWOHGX ISSUED EARLIER
THIS MORNING.

WILL CHANGE TEMPS ACROSS THE BOARD FIRST PERIOD. NORTHERN ZONES
WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH THE LOWER 50S WHILE SW ZONES WILL SEE TEMPS
NEAR 70 THIS AFTERNOON.

FOR MARINE...WILL KEEP SCA GOING FOR THE 20 TO 60 NM WATERS.
CAUTION WILL CONTINUE FOR THE BAYS AND NEARSHORE WATERS (WINDS
ALREADY AROUND 20 KNOTS).

.PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 343 AM CST WED MAR 2 2005)

DISCUSSION...
SE TX WILL BE UNDER THE FAVORABLE REGION OF THE SUB-TROPICAL
JET...THE LEFT-FRONT QUADRANT THIS MORNING THEN THE RIGHT-REAR
QUADRANT LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT.  THE ETA AND GFS WERE CLOSE BUT
LIKE THE ETA IN ITS HANDLING OF THE QPF AND HOW IT ENDS THE
PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.  POPS ARE THE MAIN FORECAST
PROBLEM OF THE DAY...TEMPERATURES ARE THE NEXT CONCERN...AND
SEVERE WEATHER CHANCES ARE A REMOTE POSSIBILITY.

FAIRLY HIGH RAIN CHANCES ARE IN STORE FOR MOST AREAS TODAY. THE
ETA AND GFS BOTH SHOW A SHORTWAVE TROUGH AT 500 MB MOVING ACROSS N
TX THIS MORNING WITH ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING IN FROM THE
SOUTHWEST OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT.  PW/S ON BOTH MODELS RANGE FROM 1 INCH INLAND TO 1.3
INCHES AT THE COAST BY 00Z THIS EVENING.  THE QUESTION COULD BE
MADE FOR HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBILITIES -- FEEL THAT THESE WILL
MAINLY BE EITHER RIGHT ON THE COAST OR OFFSHORE GIVEN. STILL...
MAY NEED TO UPDATE THE FORECAST LATER TODAY IF THE HEAVIER
RAINFALL DEVELOPS MORE NORTHWEST THAN NOW EXPECTED.

THERE WILL LIKELY NOT BE A LARGE DIURNAL TEMPERATURE SWING TODAY.
THE CLOUD COVER AND RAINFALL WILL PLAY A BIG FACTOR. HOWEVER...THE
STATIONARY FRONT TO THE SOUTH AND OFFSHORE MAY MOVE NORTHWARD SOME
TODAY OR TONIGHT.  THE PLACEMENT OF THIS FRONT WILL LIKELY BE THE
DIVIDING ZONE FOR SEVERE WEATHER CHANCES (SEE THE 00Z CRP SOUNDING
VERSUS THE LCH SOUNDING).  AT THE MOMENT AM EXPECTING THE FRONT TO
STAY OFFSHORE AND ELEVATED CONVECTION TO AFFECT THE AREA INTO THIS
EVENING.  THE ETA BUFR SOUNDING FORECASTS INDICATE THAT SEVERE
HAIL OR WIND IS A REMOTE POSSIBILITY TOWARD THE COAST AND
OFFSHORE.

PL-40

AVIATION...
WEAK OUTFLOW FROM CONVECTION LAST NIGHT IS PUSHING THROUGH HGX CWA
THIS AM ACCOMPANIED BY SHRA, MVFR CIGS (MAINLY AOA 1500 FT), AND
TURNING WINDS TO NE.  WINDS WILL BE A BIT OF A PROBLEM TO FORECAST
TODAY DUE TO THIS BOUNDARY, AS SOUTHEAST FLOW MAY STRUGGLE TO BECOME
RE-ESTABLISHED PRIOR TO ARRIVAL OF NEXT SURFACE BOUNDARY TONIGHT.
TREND OF MVFR CIGS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ALL DAY UNTIL MID LEVEL
SHORT WAVE MOVES IN LATE TONIGHT AND BEGINS TO SHUT DOWN ISENTROPIC
LIFT AND BRING AN END TO PRECIP. SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL ACCOMPANY THE
MID LEVEL WAVE, REINFORCING NORTHERLY SFC FLOW.

38

MARINE...
WINDS AND WAVES APPROACHING SCA AT BUOY 19 THIS MORNING AND THIS
TREND EXPECTED TO CONTINUE. WHETHER SCA CONDS WILL REALLY SPREAD
INTO NEARSHORE WATERS IS STILL QUESTIONABLE DUE TO SOUTHBOUND
OUTFLOWS FROM CONVECTION OVER NORTH TEXAS LAST NIGHT.  HAVE
CONSEQUENTLY RAISED SCEC FLAGS FOR BAYS AND COASTAL WATERS 0-20 AND
SCA FOR 20-60.  MODERATE ONSHORE WINDS SHOULD VEER AN DIMINISH A
LITTLE THIS EVENING AS MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE MOVES INTO THE REGION,
THEN VEER TO NORTH AS THE ACCOMPANYING SFC BOUNDARY PASSES THROUGH
AND THE COASTAL TROUGH BECOMES BETTER ESTABLISHED OVER THE GULF.
STILL EXPECT MAY SEE SFC LOW DEVELOP ON SFC BOUNDARY ROUGHLY SOUTH
OF SABINE LATE TONIGHT.

&&

.HGX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
.TX...NONE.

GM...
SMALL CRAFT SHOULD EXERCISE CAUTION BAYS AND NEARSHORE WATERS.

SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FROM 6 AM WEDNESDAY UNTIL 6 PM WEDNESDAY
      FOR THE FOLLOWING ZONES...WATERS FROM FREEPORT TO THE
