AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
347 AM CDT SUN SEP 4 2011

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH MONDAY/...AM RELUCTANT TO IGNORE THE
PAST COUPLE OF RUNS OF THE NAM WHICH BRING TROPICAL STORM LEE
SOUTHWARD INTO THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO TONIGHT INTO MONDAY BUT
WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE GFS FOR THE SHORT TERM FORECAST AS THE
LATEST RUC MODEL RUNS KEEP LEE ACROSS THE LOUISIANA COAST TODAY
AND THE LATEST FORECAST FROM THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER TAKES
LEE SLOWLY NORTHWARD TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT. WITH THAT SAID...A FEW
WEAK RAIN BANDS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP WELL OFFSHORE THE LOWER TX
COAST EARLY THIS MORNING AND UNTIL LEE FINALLY MOVES INLAND...FEEL
THAT A MENTION OF SHOWERS OFFSHORE IS WARRANTED TODAY THROUGH
MONDAY. OTHERWISE...NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF RAIN CHANCES IS
EXPECTED FOR THE INLAND SECTIONS AS DRIER AIR CONTINUES TO ADVECT
INTO THE AREA TODAY AROUND THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF LEE AND ON
MONDAY AS A VERY WEAK COLD FRONT REINFORCES THE DRIER AIR ACROSS
THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS MON AFTERNOON. WILL LIKELY BREAK OR TIE
RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. COMPRESSIONAL
HEATING SHOULD RELAX MONDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT BUT
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN HOT MONDAY REGARDLESS.

WILL CONTINUE COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY AND HIGH SURF ADVISORY TODAY AS
LONG PERIOD SWELLS CONTINUE TO REACH THE LOWER TX COAST EARLY THIS
MORNING AND TIDES WERE RUNNING NEAR 2.3 FEET ABOVE MLLW OR ABOUT A
FOOT ABOVE NORMAL. A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS WILL PERSIST TODAY
THROUGH MONDAY MAINLY FROM SWELLS TODAY AND STRONGER WINDS
DEVELOPING TONIGHT AND PERSISTING THROUGH MONDAY.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...NORTHERLY WINDS WILL
PERSIST OVER THE AREA MOVING INTO TUESDAY BEHIND THE WEAK FRONT.
THIS WILL ALLOW FOR DRIER CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE TO FILTER INTO
THE REGION. COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO BE SEEN ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY BEHIND THIS WEAK FRONT...ALTHOUGH THE CHANGE IN
TEMPERATURES WILL NOT BE TOO GREAT. HIGHS WILL DROP INTO THE MID
90S FOR MOST LOCATIONS. LOWS WILL BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER AS WELL
AS THEY ARE EXPECTED TO FALL INTO THE UPPER 60S AND 70S.

TOWARD THE LATTER HALF OF THE WORK WEEK...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
INTO DEEP SOUTH TEXAS WILL ALLOW FOR THE NORTHERLY WINDS TO WEAKEN
AND BECOME MORE OF AN EASTERLY DIRECTION.  THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR
TEMPERATURES TO BEGIN TO WARM BACK UP INTO THE MID AND UPPER 90S FOR
THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND.  MOISTURE WILL
INCREASE SLIGHTLY...HOWEVER A DRY AIRMASS WILL PERSIST OVER THE
REGION.  THEREFORE THE FORECAST LOOKS DRY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE WEEK AND INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.MARINE...TODAY THROUGH MONDAY...SEAS WERE NEAR 4 FEET WITH A
PERIOD OF 7 SECONDS AND SOUTHWEST TO WEST WINDS AT 10 KNOTS AT
BUOY020 EARLY THIS MORNING. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO VEER TO THE
NORTHWEST AND INCREASE TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT AS THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT INCREASES ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS IN THE WAKE OF
TROPICAL STORM LEE AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS. MODERATE TO STRONG NORTH WINDS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO TONIGHT INTO MONDAY AS A RESULT. WILL
CONTINUE TO MENTION SCEC FOR THE FAR OFFSHORE WATERS TODAY AS SOME
SWELLS FROM LEE CONTINUE TO MOVE TOWARDS THE LOWER TX COAST. SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY FOR
WINDS AND SEAS OFFSHORE THE LOWER TX COAST.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...SCEC TO POSSIBLY SCA CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT AND INTO TUESDAY AS GUSTY
NORTHERLY WINDS AND SLIGHTLY INCREASED SEAS PERSIST. THE MARINE
CONDITIONS OVER THE LOWER TEXAS COASTAL WATERS WILL BEGIN TO IMPROVE
HOWEVER AS WE MOVE THROUGH THE DAY TUESDAY AND TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF
THE WORK WEEK. LOW LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION TO
ALLOW FOR WEAKENING WINDS WHICH WILL BE SWITCHING TO A MORE EASTERLY
DIRECTION BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WORK WEEK.  SEAS WILL ALSO RESPOND AS
THEY DROP BELOW SCEC LEVELS.  THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK AND
INTO THE WEEKEND SHOULD PROVIDE QUIETER MARINE CONDITIONS FOR THE
LOWER TEXAS COASTAL WATERS.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL FALL TO RED FLAG WARNING
CRITERIA ACROSS THE CWA TODAY AND MONDAY. WINDS WILL BE MARGINAL
ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON SO WILL RAISE
RED FLAG WARNING FOR THE NORTHERN COUNTIES. WILL ISSUE A FIRE DANGER
STATEMENT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY FOR
TODAY. WILL CONTINUE FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR MOST OF DEEP SOUTH TX
MONDAY AS WINDS WILL BE STRONGER THAN TODAY.
