AVIATION...
UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
TODAY. PREVAILING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL EVENTUALLY MOVE
INTO KBPT/KAEX/KLCH DURING THE MORNING HOURS AND KLFT/KARA THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH MAINLY MVFR CEILING AND VISIBILITIES. IFR
CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE HEAVY RAINFALL WHEN THE
STRONGER STORMS AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH AND TRIED TO
TIME EACH LOCATION WITH TEMPO GROUPS WHEN THIS WILL OCCUR.

AFTER FRONT MOVES THROUGH...DRIER AIR WITH ENDING SHOWER ACTIVITY
AND LIGHT NORTH WINDS WILL DEVELOP DURING THE EVENING HOURS FROM
WEST TO EAST.

RUA

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 508 AM CDT THU OCT 31 2013/

SYNOPSIS...A PACIFIC COLD FRONT MOVING INTO THE TEXAS HILL
COUNTRY WILL BE MOVING INTO OUR AREA ABOUT SUNDOWN. AHEAD OF THIS
FRONT, SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME NUMEROUS WITH HEAVY
RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS. SOME STORMS COULD REACH SEVERE LIMITS. A
PREFRONTAL SQUALL LINE LOCATED FROM LUFKIN TO JASPER, IS EXPECTED
FURTHER DEVELOP TO THE SOUTH AND MOVE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF SOUTHEAST
TEXAS THIS MORNING AND INTO SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA AND CENTRAL
LOUISIANA AROUND NOON. THIS SQUALL LINE IS EXPECTED TO SLOW DOWN
AS IT MOVES INTO ACADIANA DURING THE AFTERNOON. VERY HEAVY RAIN
AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO ACCOMPANY THIS SQUALL
LINE. THE COLD FRONT SHOULD CATCH UP WITH THIS LINE AS IT MOVES
THROUGH LOWER ACADIANA THIS EVENING.

SHORT TERM...STRONG WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST WILL BE ESPECIALLY
FELT CLOSER TO THE COAST. A WIND ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT AS WELL AS
A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY. ALTHOUGH LEVELS ARE DROPPING BELOW 3
FEET ABOVE MEAN LOW WATER WITH THE OUTGOING TIDE, THE NEXT HIGH
TIDE EARLY THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD AGAIN BRING TIDES CLOSE TO
ADVISORY LEVELS WITH 4 FOOT SEAS WASHING OVER. SO THE COASTAL
FLOOD ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE UNTIL FRONTAL PASSAGE.

LONG TERM...SINCE THE FRONT SHOULD BE SLOWING TONIGHT, ADDED
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING. THE WEEKEND IS
LOOKING GOOD WITH RIDGING MOVING IN FROM THE WEST. ANOTHER PACIFIC
SYSTEM WILL BE APPROACHING AROUND THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH
RAIN CHANCES INCREASING TUESDAY UNTIL THE FRONTAL PASSAGE AROUND THURSDAY
OF NEXT WEEK. THIS FRONT WILL BRING COOLER TEMPS WITH LOWS DIPPING
INTO THE 40S IN ITS WAKE ACROSS OUR NORTHERN ZONES.

MARINE...HOISTED SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FLAGS FOR THE COASTAL LAKES
AND BAYS TODAY AS THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL BE MOVING THROUGH.
EXTENDED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR THE OUTER WATERS UNTIL
MIDNIGHT FOR SEAS UP TO 7 FEET AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

HYDROLOGY...THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR
INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND CENTRAL LOUISIANA. THIS WATCH WILL
LIKELY BE EXTENDED ASSUMING THE SQUALL LINE HOLDS TOGETHER AND
HEAVY RAINS BEGIN TO ACCUMULATE OVER LOWER SOUTHEAST TEXAS,
SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA, AND SOUTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA. TWO TO FOUR INCHES
OF ADDITIONAL RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE BEFORE THE RAINS END
TONIGHT. RADAR ESTIMATES OF RAIN UP TO 5 INCHES ALREADY HAVE
OCCURRED OVER MUCH OF THE INTERIOR OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS WITHIN THE
FLOOD WATCH. RIVERS WILL LIKELY SEE RISES HOWEVER NORTHERLY WINDS
SHOULD HELP ALLEVIATE HIGH WATER IN THE DAYS FOLLOWING THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.
