AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
936 PM CST SUN DEC 4 2011

...A QUICK UPDATE TO THE FORECAST WILL BE COMING...

.SHORT TERM /REST OF TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
COLD FRONT MAKING ITS WAY THROUGH THE NORTHERN AND WESTERN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA TONIGHT. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS HAVE
DEVELOPED OFFSHORE THE LOWER TX COAST. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION A
SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE OF RAIN ACROSS THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY
AS ELEVATED CONVECTION MAY DEVELOP AS THE COLD AIR ERODES THE LOW
LEVEL INVERSION AND SHOWERS WITH ISOLATED THUNDER DEVELOPS IN THE
WAKE OF THE FRONT LATE TONIGHT. AS THE BOUNDARY REACHES THE COAST
BY EARLY MONDAY...OVERRUNNING WILL DEVELOP PROVIDING CLOUDY SKIES
WITH LIGHT RAIN OR DRIZZLE DEVELOPING IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT MON
AFTERNOON THROUGH MON NIGHT. WILL ADJUST POPS SLIGHTLY TONIGHT AND
MONDAY AND CONFINE MEASURABLE RAIN CHANCES TO THE COASTAL SECTIONS
MON NIGHT. ALSO...TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO FALL ACROSS THE UPPER
PORTIONS OF THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND WILL ADJUST TEMPERATURES
SLIGHTLY COOLER TONIGHT THROUGH MON NIGHT WITH HIGHS FOR MONDAY
LIKELY AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AND LOWS TONIGHT NOT OCCURRING UNTIL
LATE MON MORNING. /61/

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A BROAD SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW REMAINS IN PLACE ALOFT TUESDAY...IN WAKE
OF THE COLD FRONT AND EJECTING SHORTWAVE TROUGH MONDAY.  THE LATEST
SHORT/MEDIUM RANGE MODEL RUNS CONTINUE TO SHOW BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS
REMAINING SOUTHERLY THROUGH ABOUT MID-WEEK...WITH THE ADVECTION OF
DRIER AIR REMAINING NORTH OF JUST ABOUT THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA.  A
BIT OF ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE IS FORECAST TO OCCUR AS WELL AT THE 305K
LEVEL.  ALL OF THESE FACTORS WILL LIKELY LEAD TO A CONTINUATION OF
CLOUDY AND RAINY/DRIZZLY CONDITIONS.  I WOULD EXPECT THE GREATEST
ODDS OF SEEING MEASURABLE RAINFALL ALONG/EAST OF THE US-77 CORRIDOR
AND OVER THE MARINE AREA.  FORECAST PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES...
WEATHER CONDITIONS...AND QPF AMOUNTS TUESDAY HAVE BEEN UPDATED
TO ACCOUNT FOR THE LATEST TRENDS.

ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS NORTH TEXAS IN
THE WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY TIME FRAME...ALTHOUGH TIMING DIFFERENCES /OF
6-12 HOURS/ EXIST BETWEEN THE MAJOR MEDIUM RANGE MODELS.  WITH THIS
DISTURBANCE FORECAST TO EJECT ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS REGION...IT WILL
LIKELY ONLY PROVIDE OUR AREA WITH A BIT OF MEAGER FORCING.  THIS
FORECASTER'S CONFIDENCE IS NOT THAT GREAT REGARDING THE OCCURRENCE
OF PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM.  FOR NOW...I HAVE LEFT
IN 20 PERCENT AREA-WIDE AND WILL ALLOW SUBSEQUENT SHIFTS TO MAKE
ADJUSTMENTS BASED UPON LATER MODEL RUNS.  MY GUT FEELING IS THAT THE
BEST ODDS OF SEEING MEASURABLE RAINFALL WILL LIKELY BE OVER THE
MIDDLE AND /ESPECIALLY/ LOWER VALLEY.

ISC GRIDS HAVE BEEN SENT AND SHOULD BE POSTED TO THE INTERNET.  AN
UPDATED SUITE OF PRODUCTS WILL BE ISSUED SHORTLY. /53/

&&

.MARINE...
REST OF TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...SEAS WERE NEAR 8 FEET WITH
SOUTH WINDS AT 12 KNOTS AT BUOY020. WILL EXTEND SCA FOR THE FAR
OFFSHORE WATERS THROUGH MON AFTERNOON AND RAISE SCA FOR THE
NEARSHORE WATERS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MON AFTERNOON AS SEAS REMAIN
ELEVATED WELL OFFSHORE WITH LIGHT SOUTH WINDS UNTIL THE COLD FRONT
REACHES THE COASTAL WATERS LATE TONIGHT. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE
NORTHWEST AND INCREASE BEFORE SUNRISE AND REMAIN STRONG MONDAY WITH
SEAS BUILDING FROM THE NORTHWEST MON AFTERNOON INTO MON EVENING.
/61/

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 540 PM CST SUN DEC 4 2011/

DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR 00Z TAFS.

AVIATION...SATELLITE AND RADAR IMAGES AS WELL AS SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATE SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE
NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA EARLY THIS EVENING. LOW LEVEL CLOUDS
WERE DEVELOPING ACROSS THE UPPER PORTIONS OF THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY
WITH MID TO HIGH LEVELS CLOUDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. CEILINGS WERE
NEAR 1600FT AT KAPY TO NEAR 6000FT AT KEBG. EXPECT MVFR CONDITIONS
TO DEVELOP TONIGHT AS CEILINGS LOWER WITH THE FRONT SLIDING
THROUGH THE AREA THROUGH MON MORNING. THE COLD AIR AT THE SURFACE
AND WARMER AIR ALOFT SHOULD PROVIDE OVERRUNNING CONDITIONS TO
DEVELOP MON MORNING WITH LOW CEILINGS NEAR IFR LEVELS.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 138 PM CST SUN DEC 4 2011/
SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...THE COLD FRONT HAS
REACHED KCOT AND WILL CONTINUE MOVING SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. PLENTIFUL MID LEVEL CLOUDINESS IS KEEPING IT OVC OVER
MOST OF THE CWA. THE WIND MACHINE IS CRANKING NEAR THE
COAST...KEEPING IT BREEZY TO WINDY. TEMPS ARE IN THE UPPER 70S TO
LOWER 80S. WINDS HAVE DECREASED UPSTREAM AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND
WILL DO SO IN THE LOWER VALLEY AS WELL WITHIN A FEW HOURS. SEEING
ISOLATED SHOWERS ALONG THE FRONT. TIMING HAS SETTLED ON THIS
EVENING IN THE UPPER VALLEY...WITH A STEADY PROGRESSION SOUTHEAST
TO BROWNSVILLE RIGHT AROUND SUNRISE MONDAY. THE COOLER AIR
ARRIVING OVERNIGHT WILL CAUSE OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS TO BE A BIT
LOWER...AROUND 50 IN THE UPPER VALLEY TO THE LOWER 60S NEAR THE
COAST. COOLER AIR AND CLOUD COVER WILL PUT THE BRAKES ON THE
NORMAL DAILY WARMUP MONDAY AS WELL...WITH HIGH TEMPS RISING ONLY
MODESTLY DURING THE DAY TO AROUND 60 IN THE UPPER VALLEY TO THE
MID 60S FOR THE LOWER TO MID VALLEY. MODERATE NORTH NORTHWEST
WINDS WILL DEVELOP MONDAY DURING THE DAY. OVC SKIES WITH LOWERING
CEILINGS WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY...WITH OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS
MONDAY NIGHT RANGING FROM AROUND 40 IN HEBBRONVILLE TO NEAR 50 AT
BROWNSVILLE AND THE LOWER TO MID 50S RIGHT ALONG THE COAST.
CHANCES OF LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE REMAIN IN THE FORECAST WITH A
STEELY GRAY FORECAST FOR MONDAY AND THE SUBSEQUENT FEW DAYS.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...THE DEPARTURE FROM THE
WEATHER WE HAVE SEEN THE PAST FEW SEEKS CONTINUES IN THE EXTENDED
AS THE AREA GETS PINNED BETWEEN THE DEPARTING LOW/FRONT AND THE
SFC HIGH WHICH SLOWLY MOVES INTO TEXAS. WINDS ALOFT WILL REMAIN
DOMINANT FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL HANG UP
WELL TO THE SOUTH...BUT THE WINDS ALOFT WILL INDUCE LEE SIDE
TROUGHING RIGHT ALONG THE COAST. THIS WILL BRING GENERALLY
NORTHEAST FLOW AT THE SFC...CREATING THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT AND
PROLONGED OVERRUNNING SETUP TO DEEP SOUTH TEXAS. CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION LOOK GOOD...YET THIS SETUP USUALLY CREATES LITTLE
ACCUMULATION...JUST KEEPING EVERYTHING SOGGY AND DRIZZLY. THE NEXT
MIDLEVEL TROUGH RACES ACROSS NORTH TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA...WITH THE
SFC HIGH DEFLECTING MORE TO THE NORTH OF THE VALLEY. THIS WILL
WEAKEN THE SFC TROUGH ALONG THE COAST SOMEWHAT...BUT OPPOSING FLOW
WILL STILL REMAIN FOR THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK. CLOUD COVER AND
PROXIMITY OF COLD POOL WITH SFC HIGH WILL KEEP TEMPS BELOW NORMAL
FOR MOST OF THE UPCOMING WEEK...HAVING TROUBLE REACHING 60 TUESDAY
AND WEDNESDAY AND STRUGGLING THROUGH THE 60S
THURSDAY/FRIDAY...DEPENDING ON WHEN AND WHERE CLOUD BREAKS FORM.
SOME GRADUAL MODERATION BACK TOWARD MORE SUN AND NORMAL TEMPS
ARRIVES STARTING SATURDAY WHEN THE SFC TROUGH FINALLY BREAKS DOWN.

DIURNAL TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE MONDAY NIGHT TO TUESDAY LOOKS TO BE
10 DEGREES OR LESS...WITH GENERALLY STEADY DAYTIME TEMPS IN THE
50S. TUESDAY NIGHT WILL SEE TEMPS FALL INTO THE 30S...ALTHOUGH
DEEPER CLOUD COVER AND DRIZZLE MAY KEEP DIURNAL RANGE TO 5 TO 7
DEGREES...PUTTING LOW IN THE LOW TO MID 40S VS MID 30S. EXPECT TO
SEE ENOUGH BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER WEDNESDAY NIGHT THAT
RADIATIONAL COOLING WILL BRING TEMPS DOWN INTO THE 30S
AGAIN...ESPECIALLY OUT WEST.

MARINE...
TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...BUOY 42020 IS REPORTING MODERATE
SOUTH WINDS AND 7.5 FEET WAVE HEIGHTS WITH A PERIOD OF 8 SECONDS
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL REMAIN FRESH OVER THE LAGUNA
THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON...AND IT SHOULD TAKE A WHILE FOR THE LONG
PERIOD SWELLS ON THE GULF TO RESPOND. ADVISORIES WILL THEREFORE
CONTINUE THIS AFTERNOON. WINDS ARE BEGINNING TO DECREASE OVERALL
HOWEVER...WITH THE APPROACH OF HIGH PRESSURE NOW IN CENTRAL TO SOUTH
TEXAS...AND A GRADUAL FLATTENING OF THE LOCAL PRESSURE GRADIENT.
THIS TREND WILL TEND TO CONTINUE OVERNIGHT UNTIL THE ARRIVAL OF A
COLD FRONT AT THE COAST AT OR JUST BEFORE DAWN ACCORDING TO THE
CURRENT FORECAST. A PERIOD OF STRONG NORTH WINDS WILL THEN ENSUE
MONDAY MORNING THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON...ALONG WITH SHOWERS AND
POSSIBLY ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. THE NORTH WINDS WILL SLACKEN A BIT
AFTER THE INITIAL SURGE...BUT WILL REMAIN MODERATE TO STRONG THROUGH
THE END OF THE SHORT TERM...WITH WAVE HEIGHTS MAINTAINING AT AROUND
SEVEN FEET AND THUS MEETING SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA.

TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...TUESDAY WILL SEE GUSTY NORTH WINDS
BEHIND THE FRONT CONTINUING...RUNNING 20 TO 25 KNOTS. SINCE THE
MAIN CORE OF THE COLD AIR IS NOT YET DRIVING INTO THE NORTHWEST
GULF...DO NOT EXPECT GALE FORCE WINDS OR GUSTS AT THIS MOMENT. SFC
TROUGH EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL KEEP
GENERALLY EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS RUNNING 20 KNOTS THROUGH
THURSDAY. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES EXPECTED WITH THE FRONT...AND
SHOULD CONTINUE INTO THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK. WITH SEAS
ALREADY AT 8 FEET OFFSHORE...SIGNIFICANT CHURN WITH THE FRONT WILL
KEEP SEAS 8 FEET OR GREATER THROUGH MID WEEK. WITH BREEZY
NORTHEAST FLOW ALONG THE GULF SHELF...EXPECT SEAS TO REMAIN
ELEVATED ABOVE 6 FEET INTO THURSDAY. LAGUNA WILL BE VERY CHOPPY
WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE...BUT SOME EASING SHOULD OCCUR ONCE WINDS
TURN ONSHORE AND ARE PERPENDICULAR TO THE LAGUNA.
