AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED

627 PM CDT WED MAY 16 2012

.DISCUSSION...SEE AVIATION SECTION FOR 00Z TAFS.

&&

.AVIATION...ONLY SCATTERED CLOUDS FROM 6-8 KFT LINGERING OVER THE
AREA EARLY THIS EVENING. EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES BY 04Z WITH WINDS
BECOMING LIGHT. DRIER BOUNDARY LAYER COMPARED TO LAST NIGHT WITH
DEWPOINT TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 50S BRUSH COUNTRY. WEAK SEABREEZE
MOVING THROUGH THE COASTAL BEND MAY LEAD TO SLIGHTLY HIGHER NEAR
SURFACE MOISTURE SUCH THAT PATCHY FOG COULD DEVELOP OVER THE INLAND
COASTAL PLAINS AROUND DAYBREAK. EXPECT ONLY ISOLATED POCKETS OF MVFR
VSBYS IN THE PATCHY FOG FROM 11-13Z. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS WILL
RULE THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 337 PM CDT WED MAY 16 2012/

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)...UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
AXIS SHIFTING FARTHER EAST WITH DRIER AIR MOVING IN FROM THE WEST.
MODELS WERE HINTING AT POSSIBLE SHOWERS TO DEVELOP ALONG THE
DEVELOPING SEABREEZE THIS AFTERNOON...HOWEVER STRONG SUBSIDENCE
AND DRY AIR IS EVIDENT VIA WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...WHICH SHOULD
HINDER THE ACTIVITY. OTHERWISE...WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
SHIFTING FURTHER SOUTH OVER THE AREA...LIGHT NORTH-NORTHWESTERLY WINDS
WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT OVER THE EASTERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE CWA...WHICH
IN TURN WILL LEAD TO POSSIBLY PATCHY FOG OVER THE INLAND COASTAL
PLAINS. QUIET WEATHER WILL THEN BE IN STORE FOR THURSDAY WITH
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING DEVELOPING OVER THE AREA. WEAK NORTHERLY
WINDS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT OUT OF THE EAST THEN SOUTHEAST THROUGH
THURSDAY. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...A COOL NIGHT WILL BE IN STORE...
PARTICULARLY OVER THE NORTHERN AREAS...WITH A GRADUAL WARMING
TREND THROUGH THURSDAY.

LONG TERM (THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...RIDGING ALOFT TO
REMAIN ANCHORED OVER THE GULF COAST AND EASTERN SEABOARD AS A SERIES
OF WEAK SHORTWAVES MOVE ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS THROUGH THE
PERIOD. MOISTURE WILL ALSO REMAIN QUITE LIMITED. END RESULT OF
ALL THIS IS DRY AND SOMEWHAT WARMER WEATHER THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND
INTO NEXT WEEK. HAVE OPENED UP DIURNAL TEMPERATURE RANGES SLIGHTLY
AS THIS DRY AIR WILL SERVE TO SET UP HIGHER HIGHS AND LOWER LOWS.
