AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
1229 AM CDT SAT MAY 11 2013

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

&&

.AVIATION...A CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS WITHIN A DEVELOPING COMPLEX
OVER ZAPATA COUNTY AND ACROSS NORTHEAST MEXICO IS MOVING
SOUTHEAST. IF THE THUNDERSTORMS HOLD TOGETHER THEY COULD AFFECT
THE REGIONAL AIRPORTS BETWEEN 3 AND 6AM. THE STORMS TO MOVE INTO A
MORE STABLE ATMOSPHERE SO THE STRONGEST STORMS COULD WEAKEN AS
THEY MOVE EAST. OTHERWISE...IFR TO MVFR CIGS TO PERSIST THROUGH
THE MORNING WITH A SLOW RISE OF CIGS THROUGH THE DAY. CURRENT
CONFIDENCE IS TO MAINTAIN MVFR CIGS THROUGH THE DAY WITH LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE TO DEEPEN AS NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS PERSIST.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 623 PM CDT FRI MAY 10 2013/

DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR LATEST AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

AVIATION...KEEPING AN EYE ON CONVECTION TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF
THE COUNTY WARNING AREA. THE CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT...
BUT REALLY NOT EXPECTING A BIG THREAT TO THE LOWER VALLEY AIRPORTS
UNTIL SATURDAY MORNING...WHEN A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY AND DEEP SOUTH TEXAS. THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE HEAVY
RAIN FROM SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ALONG THE LINE.
THE FRONT SHOULD REACH THE LOWER VALLEY ROUGHLY AROUND DAWN...AND
WILL THEN PUSH OFFSHORE. AS THE CURRENT INVERSION ERODES...AND
MOISTURE INCREASES...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WILL
BECOME MORE LIKELY...WITH SOME STRONGER STORMS POSSIBLE. CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING...HEAVY DOWNPOURS...AND GUSTY WINDS COULD BECOME
AN ISSUE AT AIRPORTS. THE MAIN ACTIVITY SHOULD CLEAR THE AREA BY
AFTERNOON...LEAVING NORTHEAST WINDS IN ITS WAKE. STILL LOOKING FOR
CLOUDS TO THICKEN AND CIGS TO LOWER NOW THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING.
MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP. TAF STRATEGY WILL BE TO LOWER
CIGS AND KEEP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN FOR THE MAIN FRONTAL
PASSAGE SATURDAY MORNING.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 202 PM CDT FRI MAY 10 2013/

SHORT TERM.../NOW THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
AN ACTIVE PERIOD OF WEATHER IS EXPECTED STARTING LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IS OUR
NORTHWESTERN AREAS WHERE LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE
FROM ABOUT 6 TO 7 PM THROUGH ABOUT 1 TO 2 AM. WE EXPECT THE AIR MASS
WILL STABILIZE TO THE POINT THE SEVERE STORMS WILL WEAKEN BEFORE
REACHING THE VALLEY. THERE IS A THREAT HOWEVER FOR LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN IN THE VALLEY AND SURROUNDING AREAS ESPECIALLY IN THE SATURDAY
MORNING HOURS...THE DETAILS BELOW.

AT LEAST TWO LARGE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES IN VICINITY THIS AFTERNOON ONE
MOVING INTO THE VALLEY...THE OTHER FROM ABOUT KINGSVILLE WESTWARD. A
LOCAL AREA OF SUBSIDENCE AHEAD OF THE UPPER TROUGH ON APPROACH
COMBINED WITH DRIER MIDDLE AND LOW LEVEL AIR IS WORKING TO BREAK UP
CLOUD COVER WHICH HAS ALLOWED AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO ALLOW TEMPS TO
INCREASE QUITE A BIT OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. A MORE SYNOPTIC SCALE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY STRETCHES FROM ABOUT BIG BEND EASTWARD TO AROUND
HOUSTON. MODIFIED MORNING/MODEL SOUNDINGS AND BEHAVIOR OF CU IN THE
AREA CONFIRM WE ARE STRONGLY CAPPED AND THIS SHOULD HOLD FOR THE
NEXT SEVERAL HOURS KEEPING US DRY THROUGH MID TO LATE
AFTERNOON...WITH THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IN OUR NORTHERN ZONES THE ONLY
IMPETUS FOR CONVECTION. IN THE NORTHWEST WHEN REACHING EXPECTED
HIGHS WE WILL BE VERY CLOSE TO UNSTABLE AND THE CONVERGENCE FROM
THIS BOUNDARY MAY INITIATE CONVECTION SO LEFT A 20 PCT POP IN
STARTING AT 21Z IN HBV/BKS AREA.

AS FAR AS THE LARGER EVENT GOES...COUPLED POLAR/SUBTROPICAL JET IS
EXPECTED TO BECOME VERY DIFFLUENT THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS
TONIGHT WITH OTHER WEAK PERTURBATIONS IN THIS FLOW. THIS DIFFLUENCE
IS EXPECTED TO LEAD TO A WEAK LOW BUILDING TO OUR SOUTHEAST WHICH
SHOULD HELP PULL THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO OUR NORTH SOUTHWARD AND
SHIFT OUR WINDS TO THE NORTHEAST. THE NORTHEASTERLY ONSHORE FLOW MAY
COOL THE BOUNDARY LAYER A BIT...BUT IT WILL ALSO INCREASE LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE AND THE AIR MASS SHOULD STILL BE QUITE UNSTABLE THROUGH THE
EARLY EVENING. DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL ALSO BE FAVORABLE FOR ORGANIZED
CONVECTION. WITH THE BOUNDARIES...MAY GET LOCALLY INITIATED
CONVECTION...OR THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ALONG THE FRONT TO OUR
NORTH AND PROPAGATING SOUTHEAST AS UPPER FORCING INCREASES OVER THE
AREA. EITHER WAY THERE IS A FAIRLY GOOD CHANCE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS AND HAVE INCLUDED SEVERE WORDING IN ABOUT THE NORTHWESTERN
THIRD OF OUR CWA. IT IS AT LEAST POSSIBLE SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY WILL
PUSH INTO THE VALLEY TONIGHT OR DEVELOP OVERHEAD...BUT THE SIGNAL
HAS BEEN CONSISTENT AND REMAINS SO THAT THE BEST TIME FOR CONVECTION
NOW SHOULD BE AFTER THE COLUMN HAS SATURATED CONSIDERABLY AND BECOME
LESS UNSTABLE.

WITH THAT THE THREAT FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE
IN THE MORNING HOURS AS DEEP MOISTURE CONTINUES TO PUMP INTO THE
REGION ALONG ONSHORE WINDS. THE BEST DIFFLUENCE AND LOCAL DIVERGENT
MAXIMA IN THE JET OVERHEAD BEGIN TO DEPART BY AROUND 9 TO 10 AM.
BEFORE THE FORCING DIMINISHES HOWEVER HODOGRAPHS FAVOR GENERALLY
NORTHEASTWARD MOVING STORMS...BUT THEY WILL LIKELY BE SLOW MOVING
WITH THE POSSIBILITY FOR TRAINING CONVECTION. THIS WILL LIKELY LEAD
TO AREAS OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH URBAN/SMALL STREAM TYPE
FLOODING QUITE POSSIBLE AND AT LEAST A POSSIBILITY OF SOME FLASH
FLOODING IF THE RIGHT CONDITIONS COME TOGETHER. HAVE CONTINUED THE
MENTION OF HEAVY RAIN IN THE GRIDS. ACTIVITY WILL PROBABLY WANE
EARLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON BUT ANOTHER WEAK IMPULSE APPROACHES FROM
THE WEST IN THE LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING...AND THAT PLUS ANY
AVAILABLE RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES MAY REINITIATE CONVECTION. LATENT
HEAT FROM PREVIOUS CONVECTION MAY SIGNIFICANTLY LIMIT AVAILABLE
INSTABILITY HOWEVER AND THE THREAT FOR AFTERNOON STRONGER STORMS
SATURDAY APPEARS HIGHLY CONDITIONAL. FORCING AND AVAILABLE
MOISTURE BEGINS TO TAIL OFF SATURDAY NIGHT AND DID TRIM BACK THE
AVAILABLE POPS A BIT FOCUSING MORE ON SHRA/TSRA ALONG THE
RIVER...AND THUNDERSTORMS INITIATING IN THE AFTERNOON SATURDAY
ADVECTING INTO THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT WHICH WOULD BE THE PRIMARY
THREAT.

LONG TERM.../SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
UNSETTLE WEATHER WILL BE EXTENDED INTO THE FIRST PART OF THE LONG
TERM FORECAST AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER NORTHERN MEXICO REMAINS
STATIONARY OVER THE REGION. AS THE SYSTEM REMAINS STATIONARY...THE
UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE PATTERN WILL BE IN PLACE THROUGH THE FIRST
PART OF THE WEEK WITH ONSHORE FLOW AT THE SURFACE PROVIDING MORE
MOISTURE INTO THE AREA. THIS EASTERLY FLOW WILL KEEP PWATS VALUES
HIGH SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. CHANCE OF CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY ESPECIALLY ALONG THE BORDERLINE. WINDS
WILL BECOME MORE SE BY WEDNESDAY AS THE WEAKENING LOW SLOWLY LIFTS
TO THE NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS. THE CHANCES LOWER INTO
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS THIS SYSTEM IS PICK UP WITHIN THE UPPER
LEVEL FLOW. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN IN THE MID TO LOWER 80S THROUGH
TUESDAY WITH MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS. EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO RISE
INTO THE MID 90S ACROSS THE WEST PORTION OF THE CWA BY THE END OF THE
WEEK. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE MID TO LOW 70S FOR THE LONG TERM
FORECAST.

MARINE...NOW THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...
GENERALLY FAVORABLE MARINE CONDITIONS WITH A COUPLE OF OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES MAKING WIND DIRECTION FAIRLY ERRATIC TODAY ON AREA
WATERS. LIGHT WINDS WILL GENERALLY BECOME EASTERLY AND THEN
NORTHEASTERLY TONIGHT WITH AREAS OF THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY DEVELOPING
OVER OR MOVING INTO THE COASTAL WATERS IN THE PRE DAWN HOURS
SATURDAY. SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE LIKELY SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH
EARLY AFTERNOON WITH A CHANCE FOR STORMS REMAINING THROUGH SATURDAY
NIGHT.

SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...EASTERLY FLOW WILL BE IN PLACE FOR
THE FIRST PART OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST AS A STRONG TROUGH OVER THE
NORTHERN PLAINS KEEPS THE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE GULF WATERS.
ONSHORE FLOW WILL ENHANCE SHOWER ACTIVITY INLAND AND INCREASE THE
CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES TO CREATE ROUGH CONDITIONS
OVER THE GULF WATERS THROUGH TUESDAY. EXPECT SE WINDS TO RETURN WEDNESDAY
AS THE CLOSE LOW OVER BAJA CA BEGINS TO LIFT NORTHEAST AND LOWERS THE
CHANCE OF SHOWERS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. THE WINDS WILL
REMAIN BETWEEN 10 TO 15 KNOTS WITH NO SCA CONDITIONS EXPECTED AT THIS
TIME.
