FEW HOURS TOMORROW MORNING.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 313 PM CST THU FEB 6 2014/

SHORT TERM /NOW THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...COMPLICATED FORECAST
TONIGHT DUE TO THE DENSE OVERCAST SKIES AND CONTINUED COLD AIR
ADVECTION. INITIAL MIDLEVEL WAVE IS RACING OFF TO THE EAST OVER THE
LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. SOUTHERN STREAM JET GENERALLY DUE
WEST-EAST ACROSS SOUTH TEXAS INDUCING SOME SFC TROUGHING ALONG THE
COAST. DECREASING LIFT FROM THE FIRST WAVE AND SLIGHTLY LESSENED
ISENTROPIC LIFT HAS DECREASED PRECIP CHANCES THROUGH THE NEXT 12
HOURS. THE NEXT MIDLEVEL WAVE APPROACHING SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WILL
RACE ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN US DURING THE NEXT 12 HOURS...WITH
INCREASING LIFT AND BETTER ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE BRINGING A BETTER
CHANCE FOR LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE TO THE REGION. TEMPERATURES
HOVERING IN THE MID 30S CURRENTLY WILL SEE VERY LITTLE IF ANY
DIURNAL RANGE THROUGH THE NIGHT TONIGHT. THAT PUTS AREAS NORTH AND
WEST OF KMFE ON THE PRECIPICE OF FROZEN PRECIPITATION AGAIN
TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY ON EXPOSED SURFACES. PARCEL TONIGHT LOOKS MOIST
ENOUGH THAT FREEZING RAIN LOOKS MINIMAL. BEST CHANCES FOR FREEZING
TEMPERATURES WILL BE FROM ZAPATA TO KHBV...WHICH ARE NEAR ONLY NEED
A COUPLE DEGREES FALL TO REACH FREEZING. WILL BE POSTING A FREEZE
WARNING FOR ZAPATA AND JIM HOGG COUNTIES TONIGHT. THE SECOND WAVE IS
EXPECTED TO PEAK IN LIFTING STRENGTH AROUND NOON TOMORROW...WHICH IS
WHEN THE BEST CHANCES FOR LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE WILL OCCUR. DENSE
CLOUD COVER WILL HOLD FOR A GOOD PORTION OF THE DAY...MINIMIZING
DIURNAL TEMPERATURE RANGE AGAIN TOMORROW. TEMPS NOT EXPECTED TO RISE
ABOVE THE MID 40S TOMORROW...WITH CONCERN THAT A REPEAT OF TODAY IN
THE UPPER 30S WILL OCCUR. HAVE UNDERCUT TEMPERATURES FOR THE REGION
TOMORROW AS MODELS MISSED THE ABSENCE OF A DIURNAL WARMUP TODAY. THE
SECOND MIDLEVEL WAVE RACES EAST FRIDAY NIGHT...WITH GRADUALLY
DECREASING UPGLIDE. TEMPERATURES WILL DECREASE LITTLE FRIDAY NIGHT
WITH DIURNAL SWING OF NO MORE THAN 5 DEGREES...AND GENERALLY STEADY
TEMPS THROUGH THE NIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT. ANY LINGERING PRECIPITATION
FRIDAY EVENING WILL BE CONFINED TO THE IMMEDIATE COAST AND MARINE
AREAS.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...A FAIRLY ZONAL 500 MB
PATTERN WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE SOUTH CENTRAL PLAINS STATES INTO
THE WEEKEND WHICH WILL ALLOW THE TEMPS TO RECOVER SOMEWHAT. A
PRETTY STRONG SHORT WAVE WILL THEN MOVE ACROSS TX ON TUES WHICH
WILL USHER THROUGH ANOTHER COLD FRONT LATE TUES ALLOWING COOLER
CANADIAN AIR TO SPREAD OVER THE REGION WED AND THURS. BOTH THE
ECMWF AND GFS MODELS ONCE AGAIN WANT TO BUILD A COASTAL
TROUGH/SURFACE LOW JUST OFFSHORE THE AREA IN THE WAKE OF THE
FRONT. THIS IN ADDITION TO THE STRONG UVV GENERATED BY THE 500 MB
SHORT WAVE MOVING OVER THE REGION WILL MAINTAIN SOME DECENT POPS
AROUND MIDWEEK. MID LEVEL RIDGING STARTS TO REBUILD OVER THE AREA
ON AND AFTER THURSDAY WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR SOME WARMER TEMPS TO
RETURN LATE NEXT WEEK.

THE LONGER RANGE MODEL AGREEMENT IS PRETTY GOOD UP THROUGH
SUNDAY FOR THE WARMING TEMPS THEN BIGGER DISAGREEMENTS SHOW UP
AFTER SUNDAY WITH THE APPROACH AND PASSAGE OF THE NEXT COLD
FRONTS. THE ECMWF IS FASTER WITH THE FROPA AND IS ALSO STRONGER
WITH THE CAA EARLY NEXT WEEK. WILL OPT TO GO WITH THE GFS/ECMWF
CONSENSUS THROUGH SUNDAY THEN WILL LEAN CLOSER TO THE COOLER ECMWF
NUMBERS AFTER SUNDAY. FOR POPS WILL GO WITH A GENERAL 50/50 BLEND
OF THE GFS AND ECMWF NUMBERS.

OVERALL CONFIDENCE IN THE LONGER RANGE FORECAST WORDING IS ONLY
AVERAGE TODAY CONSIDERING THE MODEL DISPARITIES AFTER SUNDAY.

MARINE...NOW THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE IN
EFFECT FOR ALL MARINE ZONES...WITH THE LAGUNA POSTED THROUGH
SUNSET AND GULF WATERS THROUGH SUNRISE TOMORROW. WINDS WILL REMAIN
FROM THE NORTHEAST AS COASTAL TROUGHING HOLDS IN THE AREA. THE
COASTAL TROUGH MAY DEEPEN SLIGHTLY FRIDAY AFTERNOON...WHICH WILL
INCREASE WINDS BACK TO CAUTION LEVELS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT. LIGHT RAIN
AND DRIZZLE IS EXPECTED MAINLY FOR FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
SEAS CURRENTLY 8 TO 10 FEET OFFSHORE WILL SLOWLY LOWER...REACHING
5 OT 6 FEET BY SUNSET FRIDAY.

SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...FAIRLY BENIGN MARINE CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL FOR THE SAT THROUGH MON PERIOD AS MODERATE SURFACE RIDGING
MOVES OVER THE GULF COAST REGION ALLOWING THE SURFACE FLOW TO
SHIFT AROUND TO A MORE E-SE DIRECTION. CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE
DRAMATICALLY ON TUESDAY AS MUCH STRONGER NORTHERLY WINDS BUILD
OVER THE REGION INCREASING THE SEAS BACK UP TO SCA LEVELS.
