AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CORPUS CHRISTI TX
328 PM CDT MON MAR 26 2007

.SHORT TERM...COORD WITH SPC FOR WATCH BOX FOR WESTERN COUNTIES
UNTIL 10 PM. LINES OF CONVECTION EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AND MOVE
ACROSS THE WATCH AREA...WITH A FOCUS ON LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS. NO PLANS FOR ANY FLOOD WATCHES AT THIS TIME...ALTHOUGH I-35
CORRIDOR MAY SEE SOME LOCAL PONDING OF WATER FROM CURRENT ROUND OF
CONVECTION.

CONVECTION SHOULD MOVE ACROSS THE CWA THIS EVENING...LOSING PUNCH
AS WE LOSE DAYTIME HEATING. EXPECT MAIN ACTIVITY TO TAPER OFF
AFTER MIDNIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING AS UPPER LOW PUSHES EAST.
TUESDAY AND TURSDAY NIGHT LOOK DRY OUT AHEAD OF THE NEXT UPPER SYSTEM.

&&

.MARINE...CURRENT SCA LOOKS GOOD...EXPECT WINDS TO RELAX BELOW
ADVISORY CRITERIA AFTER SUNSET AND REMAIN JUST BELOW SCA LIMITS
THROUGH THE SHORT TERM.

&&

.AVIATION...TAFS TRACK CONVECTION PROGRESSING ACROSS THE CWFA THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH MVFR CIGS PERSISTING OVERNIGHT BEFORE BEGINNING
TO LIFT LATE MORNING TUESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...MAIN ISSUES IN THE EXT
PERIODS WILL BE THE STRENGTH OF THE NEXT UPR SYSTEM...THE AMOUNT OF
PRECIP IT AND AN ASSOC FRONT WILL PRODUCE (THU-FRI) AND HOW MUCH
COOLING WE SEE BEHIND THIS FRONT. MODELS HAVE NOT BEEN IN VERY GOOD
AGREEMENT ON ANY OF THESE ITEMS OR CONSISTENT AND THIS IS LEADING TO
TRICKY FORECAST FOR THE END OF THIS WEEK. NORMALLY WOULD NOT JUST
JUMP ON LATEST GFS BAN WAGON...BUT 12Z RUNS ARE COMING MORE IN LINE
W/ THE CANADIAN AND ECM SOLNS SHOWING A LESS PROGRESSIVE AND DEEPER
SYSTEM EJECTING SLOWLY OUT OF NM ON FRI-SAT. THIS MEANS SLOWING
EVERYTHING DOWN SOMEWHAT W/ THE FROPA AND BEST POPS MORE INTO FRI
(LOWERED THU POPS). GFS DOES LOOK STRONGER AND DEEPER THAN OTHER MED
RANG MODEL THOUGH SO NOT TOTALLY BUYING BULLISH POPS FRI-FRI
NIGHT...BUT MOISTURE FIELDS LOOK GOOD AND FRONT LOOKS TO PROVIDE
DECENT MOISTURE CONVERGENCE...SO WILL SHOW SOLID CHC POPS THU
NIGHT-FRI NIGHT AND EVEN LIKELY POPS ACROSS NERN COS ON FRI WHICH
LOOKS BEST. THINK THE MAIN CONVECTIVE EVENT AND POSSIBILITY W/ MOST
HVY RAIN AND SVR WX WILL MAINLY OCCUR ACROSS NRN AND CEN TEX...BUT
ONCE AGAIN THE TAIL END OF STRONGER STORMS MAY DIP INTO INLAND
COASTAL PLAINS AREAS AND WILL SHOW BEST POPS THERE. TOO EARLY TO GET
CUTE MENTIONING THIS IN ZFP. COULD REALLY GO EITHER WAY STILL WITH S
TX REALLY GETTING HAMMERED OR W/ MOST CONVECTION WELL
NORTH...DEPENDING ON HOW STRONG THIS SYSTEM TURNS OUT SO STAY TUNED.

LOOKS LIKE VERY WINDY CONDITIONS W/ SCAS CAN BE EXPECTED AS THE
SYSTEM APPROACHES ON WED THEN WILL SEE A DECENT WIND SHIFT W/ FROPA
ON FRI. LATEST GFS IS NOT AS COLD AS BEFORE WHICH IS MORE IN LINE W/
PREVIOUS FORECASTERS THINKING. WILL SEE A FEW COOL MORNINGS OVER THE
WEEKEND W/ BELOW NORMAL TEMPS BEFORE THINGS WARM BACK UP EARLY NEXT
WEEK AS SRLY FLOW AND MOISTURE RETURN.
