AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
1250 PM CDT MON APR 16 2012

.DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR LATEST AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

&&

.AVIATION...A LINE OF STORMS WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE THREE TAFS
SITES THIS AFTERNOON. THIS IS ASSOCIATED TO A FRONTAL BOUNDARY
ALONG HIDALGO AND BROOKS COUNTIES. EXPECT ERRATIC GUSTY WINDS
WITH THESE STORMS AND LARGE HAIL. THESE STORMS COULD BECOME
SEVERE AS THE DAY PROGRESSES. THERE IS A SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WATCH FOR THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE CWA UNTIL THIS AFTERNOON.
ONCE THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA THIS SHOWERS WILL MOVE OFF
TOWARDS THE GULF COAST. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH/NORTHEAST
BEHIND THE FRONT.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 823 AM CDT MON APR 16 2012/

DISCUSSION...UPDATE TO INCLUDE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR
KENEDY...BROOKS...WILLACY...HIDALGO AND CAMERON COUNTIES UNTIL 3
PM THIS AFTERNOON. MAIN THREAT WITH THE STORMS WILL BE STRONG
GUSTY WINDS...DANGEROUS CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING AND LARGE HAIL.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 635 AM CDT MON APR 16 2012/

DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR LATEST AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

AVIATION...GENERALLY BKN TO OVC MVFR CIGS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH
THE DAY WITH THE POSSIBILITY CIGS WILL LIFT TO SCT AND UP TO
AROUND 3500 FT THIS AFTERNOON. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS IS
EXPECTED LATE THIS MORNING AND THIS AFTERNOON ALONG A FRONT THAT
CUTS FROM NEAR FALCON TO HEBBRONVILLE. STORMS THAT DEVELOP ARE
EXPECTED TO PRODUCE STRONG WINDS AND HAIL. THE CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS UNTIL AROUND 03Z WHEN ANY PRECIP WILL LIKELY
SHIFT MORE TOWARDS MODERATE RAIN AND SHOWERS. WINDS MAY BE GUSTY
NEAR THE COAST THIS MORNING. LOW CEILINGS OR FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE
TONIGHT.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 410 AM CDT MON APR 16 2012/

SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...CONTINUING CLOSE NEAR TERM
METEOROLOGICAL WATCH. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY THIS MORNING SHOWS THE
MAIN UPPER TROUGH AXIS OVER THE NORTHERN GULF OF CALIFORNIA. THE CWA
CURRENTLY IS POSITIONED IN THE RIGHT EXIT REGION OF THE MAIN UPPER
JET STREAK ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE APPROACHING UPPER TROUGH...AND WE
ARE ALSO GETTING AT LEAST SOME INFLUENCE FROM A SUBTROPICAL JET
MAXIMUM MOVING OVER FAR SOUTHERN MEXICO AND THE BAY OF CAMPECHE. THE
NET RESULT IS STRONG NET DIVERGENCE ALOFT...WHICH IS WORKING BOTH TO
MODIFY OUR THERMODYNAMIC PROFILE...SLOWLY ERODING EXISTING
CAPPING...AND BUILDING A SURFACE TROUGH/CYLCONE OVER NORTHEASTERN
MEXICO. THE BOUNDARY LAYER HAS DECOUPLED OVER LAND TONIGHT BUT LOWER
LEVEL WINDS REMAIN RELATIVELY STRONG WITH KBRO VWP SHOWS A
RELATIVELY DEEP LAYER OF 30KT WINDS FROM 0-8KFT. EXPECT THE BEST
850-925MB WINDS TO BE ROUGHLY FROM ABOUT HARLINGEN EASTWARD THIS
MORNING...AND THAT AREA MAY EXPERIENCE SOME BREEZY CONDITIONS EARLY
THIS MORNING. THE SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS CLOSE TO STATIONARY
WITH WINDS ALOFT ESSENTIALLY PARALLEL TO THE FRONT...THIS WILL
CHANGE IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS THE TROUGH AXIS APPROACHES AND THE
WINDS BECOME MORE WESTERLY ALOFT.

THE NET RESULT IN OUR WEATHER IN THE NEAR TERM WILL BE AN
EXPECTATION FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO REDEVELOP OVER THE CWA...ALONG...
AND NEAR THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY...AND PERHAPS JUST AHEAD OF IT LATER
THIS MORNING AND ESPECIALLY THIS AFTERNOON. WITH THE AVAILABLE
INSTABILITY AND MODERATE DEEP AND LOW LEVEL SHEAR...SOME OF THESE
STORMS COULD BE SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. THE
0-6KM SHEAR IS MARGINALLY SUPPORTIVE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH THE 0-1KM
SHEAR AND DIRECTIONAL SHEAR DUE TO THE DEVELOPING SURFACE
LOW/TROUGH IN THE EASTERN MOST REACHES OF THE CWA POTENTIALLY MORE
CONDUCIVE TO ISOLATED TORNADOGENESIS. THE SLOW MOVING FRONT AND
SHALLOW FRONTAL SLOPE WARRANT KEEPING AT LEAST A CHANCE OF RAIN IN
THE FORECAST THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON WHEN THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS
COMPLETELY CLEARS. STORM MOTION IS EXPECTED TO BE QUITE SLOW AND
WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND TWO STANDARD DEVIATIONS
ABOVE THE SEASONAL NORM...VERY HEAVY RAINFALL IS EXPECTED WITH
SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING POSSIBLE IN ANY AREAS THAT RECEIVE
THUNDERSTORMS. THE CONDITIONALITY...POTENTIAL AREAL COVERAGE...AND
DROUGHT CONDITIONS HOWEVER APPEAR TO PREVENT THE NEED FOR A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH THIS MORNING.

TO SUMMARIZE...WE EXPECT THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AGAIN TODAY. SOME
OF THE STORMS COULD BE STRONG TO SEVERE...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. THE FREEZING LEVEL...A KEY COMPONENT
IN HAIL FORMATION HOWEVER IS MUCH HIGHER THAN WHAT IT WAS THE DAY OF
THE MIDDLE VALLEY HAIL STORM...SO A REPEAT OF SUCH COPIOUS AMOUNTS
OF BASEBALL TO GOLFBALL SIZED HAIL IS QUITE UNLIKELY. THERE IS AT
LEAST SOME POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING WINDS IN THE FORM OF WET
MICROBURSTS...AND POSSIBLY A TORNADO OR TWO...BUT THE PARAMETERS FOR
TORNADOES ARE THE MOST MARGINAL OUT OF ALL OF THE SEVERE WEATHER
PARAMETERS. HEAVY RAIN IS THE MOST LIKELY OF ALL OF THE FORMS OF
SEVERE WEATHER AND LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE WHERE SLOW
MOVING STORMS DEVELOP. /68-JGG/

LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...THE 500 MB TROUGH AXIS
THAT BROUGHT THE SIGNIFICANT CONV TO TX OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS
WILL BE SHIFTING EAST AWAY FROM TX ALLOWING FOR A MORE STABLE AND
SUBSIDENT AIRMASS TO BUILD INTO THE REGION. WEAK TO MODERATE MID
LEVEL RIDGING WILL PREVAIL OVER DEEP SOUTH TX FOR WED AND THURS
MAINTAINING GENERALLY WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS. ANOTHER MAJOR MID
LEVEL TROUGH AXIS WILL PUSH INTO THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE LOWER
48 STATES TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK WHICH WILL IN TURN PUSH
ANOTHER COLD FRONT INTO THE REGION AS THE WEEKEND APPROACHES. BOTH
THE ECMWF AND THE GFS MODELS PUSH THE NEXT FRONT THROUGH DEEP
SOUTH TX FRI NIGHT INTO EARLY SAT MORNING. THE LONGER RANGE MODELS
ARE ALSO IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT SHOWING LIMITED DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS NEXT FRONT. SO FOR NOW WILL MAINTAIN
THE 20 TO 30 % POPS FOR THE TIME BEING. THE AIRMASS IN THE WAKE OF
THE FRONT WILL BE FAIRLY MILD WITH ONLY SOME MINOR DROPS IN TEMPS.
RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY WITH THE GFS MEX MOS IS PRETTY GOOD SO
OVERALL CONFIDENCE IN THE LONGER RANGE PERIOD IS ABOVE AVERAGE.

MARINE /TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY...WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY
SLACKEN AND BECOME MORE MARGINAL FOR SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY BY EARLY
AFTERNOON...HOWEVER WITH PERSISTENT SOUTHEAST WINDS SEAS WILL
LIKELY REMAIN ROUGH THROUGH TONIGHT. MORE MODERATE SOUTHEAST WINDS
AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED ON MONDAY.

TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...THE MAIN MARINE CONCERN IN THE
LONGER RANGE PERIOD IS THE EXPECTED FROPA THIS COMING WEEKEND.
UNTIL THEN THE MARINE CONDITIONS FROM LATE TUES INTO FRIDAY WILL
REMAIN BELOW SCA LEVELS. HOWEVER EXPECT THE GULF WATERS TO REACH
UP NEAR SCA LEVELS FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SAT.
