AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO TX
922 AM CDT MON MAY 7 2007

.UPDATE...A COMPLEX OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS MOVING OVER
THE EDWARDS PLATEAU AND WESTERN HILL COUNTRY THIS MORNING. IT IS
DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE HOW FAR EAST THIS SYSTEM WILL PROGRESS.
LOOKING AT THE VAD WIND PROFILE FROM KDFX WITH THE STRONG SOUTHERLY
FLOW INTO THE UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE AND THE MODEL
DATA...IT LOOKS AS IF THE SYSTEM WILL PROGRESS TO NEAR THE
ESCARPMENT AND THEN DISSIPATE. HAVE MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FIRST
PERIOD BASED ON THE CURRENT CONDITIONS. HAVE INCREASED THE POPS
OUT WEST...AND LOWERED THE MAX TEMPS. OTHERWISE...THE FORECAST
LOOKS GOOD AND IS ON TRACK. UPDATES WILL BE OUT SHORTLY.

DISCUSSION...
THIS MORNING A MCS WAS ONGOING ACROSS THE EDWARDS PLATEAU AND BIG
COUNTRY. THIS FEATURE WILL TRACK EAST NORTHEAST THIS MORNING ALONG
THE THETA-E RIDGE AXIS. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE
THIS MORNING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF VAL VERDE AND EDWARDS
COUNTIES. TODAY THE BEST CHANCE OF SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT WILL BE ALONG THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY PUT DOWN BY THE MCS
AND ALONG THE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT WEST OF DEL RIO.

ALL MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT THE UPPER LEVEL TROF OVER THE
SOUTHERN ROCKIES WILL FINALLY BEGIN TO MOVE EASTWARD TUESDAY NIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN AN INCREASING CHANCE OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CWFA. HOWEVER THERE IS A VARIETY OF
SOLUTIONS REGARDING THE SPEED AND SOUTHERN EXTENT OF THE UPPER LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM AS IT TREKS EASTWARD. THE GFS SOLUTION IS THE
SLOWEST AND FURTHEST SOUTH WITH THE UPPER LOW. THIS SOLUTION KEEPS
RAIN IN THE FCST THROUGH SATURDAY. NOGAPS HAS A TRACK SIMILAR TO
THE GFS THROUGH FRIDAY WHILE THE ECMWF IS FARTHER NORTH. WE WILL
GO WITH THE WETTER GFS SOLUTION FOR THIS FCST.

THE GFS MOS MIN TEMP FCST HAS BEEN SHOWING A COOL BIAS OVER THE
WEEKEND. WITH LITTLE OR NO CHANGE IN THE AIRMASS FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS WILL FCST NEAR PERSISTENCE FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS.

SPC ONCE AGAIN HAS OUR WESTERN COUNTIES IN THE SLIGHT RISK AREA
FOR TODAY...EXTENDING A LITTLE FARTHER TO THE EAST ON TUESDAY.
WILL INCLUDE MENTION OF SEVERE IN THE FCST. ADDITIONAL MCS
DEVELOPMENT WILL BE POSSIBLE AGAIN TONIGHT AND TUESDAY NIGHT WHILE
THE UPPER TROF AND QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT REMAIN WEST OF THE
CWFA.
