918 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012

.UPDATE...
EVENING FORECAST UPDATE.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
CONVECTION HAS MOVED EAST AND NORTHEAST OF SE TX AS THE UPPER
LEVEL LOW HAS MOVED INTO THE C PLAINS. SKIES CONTINUE TO CLEAR
ACROSS THE AREA WITH MAINLY CALM WINDS. LOW LEVELS REMAIN MOIST
ESPECIALLY WITH RECENT RAINFALL SO EXPECT AREAS OF RADIATION FOG
TO DEVELOP ACROSS SE TX. POSSIBLE THAT SOME MAY BECOME DENSE
AFTER MIDNIGHT AS SKIES CONTINUE TO CLEAR. MAIN FORECAST UPDATE
WAS TO REMOVE ANY MENTION OF RAIN AND UPDATE SKY COVER FOR
ONGOING TRENDS ON SATELLITE IMAGERY. LATEST FORECAST UPDATE HAS
BEEN ISSUED.

MUCH OF SE TX DID RECEIVE BENEFICIAL RAINFALL TODAY TO END THE
LAST COUPLE OF DAYS OF SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL. RAINFALL RECORDS
WERE BROKEN AT BOTH KIAH AND KHOU TODAY. THE RAINFALL TOTALS NOW
BRING HOUSTON TO ITS 4TH WETTEST START TO A YEAR. A PUBLIC

DISCUSSION...
SEE AVIATION DISCUSSION.

AVIATION...
SKIES HAVE BEGUN TO CLEAR OUT WEST AND FEEL BEST POTENTIAL FOR FOG
OVERNIGHT WILL BE WHERE SKIES CLEAR THIS EVENING. FURTHER EAST...
FEEL TAF SITES WILL ENDURE PATCHY FOG AND LOW CIGS. WINDS WILL
REMAIN LIGHT OVERNIGHT INTO MONDAY. OVERALL...FEEL LIFR CIGS WILL
DEVELOP OVERNIGHT AND PERSIST INTO MONDAY MORNING BEFORE
TRANSITIONING TO MVFR CIGS MONDAY AFTERNOON. 43

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 339 PM CDT SUN MAR 11 2012/

DISCUSSION...
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT HAS BROUGHT US OUR RAIN
OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS HAS FINALLY LIFTED NORTHWARD INTO
WESTERN KANSAS AFTER PUSHING ONE MORE ROUND OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE REGION TODAY. AS OF MID AFTERNOON THE
HEAVIEST LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS PUSHED EAST OF OUR
REGION WITH LIGHT WESTERLY WINDS IN ITS WAKE. WITH THIS LINE OFF
TO OUR EAST THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT HAS DIMINISHED FOR OUR
REGION AND THE TORNADO WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELED FOR ALL OF OUR
COUNTIES. LIGHT TO MODERATE SHOWERS ARE STILL ONGOING ACROSS MUCH
OF THE REGION AND WE COULD CONTINUE TO SEE LIGHT RAINFALL
ACCUMULATIONS BEFORE THIS ACTIVITY ALSO MOVES OUT TO THE EAST BY
EARLY EVENING.

OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD BE COOLER TONIGHT AS SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR HAS
WORKED ITS WAY INTO THE REGION. THIS COOL AIR COMBINED WITH THE
STILL WET GROUND WILL PRODUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR AREAS OF FOG TO
DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT. TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE
NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE REGION SHOULD DIP INTO THE MID TO UPPER
50S TONIGHT WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA REMAINING IN THE LOW 60S.

AS THIS UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM CONTINUES TO MOVE OFF TO THE NORTHEAST
WE WILL SEE AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT AS
BROAD RIDGING DEVELOPS OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO.
MONDAY LOOKS TO REMAIN RELATIVELY DRY AND WARMER AS LOW LEVEL
WINDS REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST. MOISTURE RETURN WILL BEGIN ON
TUESDAY WITH ONSHORE FLOW PERSISTING THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL WITH HIGHS IN THE
UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80 DEGREES. WILL KEEP SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN
PLACE EACH AFTERNOON AS A SERIES OF WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
ARE EXPECTED TO PASS OVERHEAD THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. 38

MARINE...
TRICKY FORECAST AS FAR AS POTENTIAL FOR SEA FOG TONIGHT. AS DRIER
AIR HAS FILTERED IN DOWN THE COAST...DEW POINTS NEAR MATAGORDA BAY
NOW APPEAR LOWER THAN THE WATER TEMPERATURE SO THINK NO SEA FOG
THERE. OVER GALVESTON BAY HOWEVER DEW POINTS ARE HIGHER AND THINK
THERE IS A CHANCE FOR SEA FOG BUT NOT SURE HOW WIDESPREAD OR DENSE.
WILL LEAVE DENSE FOG ADVISORY UP THERE FOR NOW BUT THINK IT MAY BE
ABLE TO BE DROPPED ONCE IT CAN BE ESTABLISHED SOME OF THAT DRIER AIR
CAN FILTER BACK IN. 46
