AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO TX
321 PM CDT SAT APR 26 2014

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)...
VIGOROUS UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM IS MOVING THROUGH
ARIZONA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...ON AN E/NE TRAJECTORY THAT WILL TAKE
THE SYSTEM INTO NORTHERN NM AND THEN THE CENTRAL PLAINS BY LATE
SUNDAY.  SO WHILE THE SYSTEM IS STRONG...UPPER DYNAMICS WILL BE
DISPLACED WELL TO THE NORTH OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS.  WHILE WE WONT
TOTALLY BE VOID OF TRIGGERS FOR SH/TS...OVERALL POP WILL REMAIN VERY
LOW THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT AS CAP REMAINS HIGH.

OUR BEST CHANCE OF RAIN WILL OCCUR OVERNIGHT...BUT WILL LIMIT TO
SLIGHT/CHANCE POP AS SOME OF THE MODELS DEVELOP SOME ACTIVITY. SOME OF
THE POP MAY BE STORMS COMING IN OFF MEXICO...WHILE OTHER HIGH
RESOLUTION MODELS ARE FORMING CONVECTION WELL PAST MIDNIGHT OVER
THE CWA.  ANY SEVERE THREAT SHOULD BE LIMITED OVERNIGHT WITH
DYNAMICS LACKING...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SH/TS. DAY 1
OUTLOOK JUST SCALED BACK THE SLIGHT RISK THREAT INTO NW TEXAS. AM
NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO FULLY PULL THE SVR THREAT OVERNIGHT BASED
ON PAST EVENTS THIS SPRING.  OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD REMAIN ABOVE
NORMAL AS THE WIND WILL STAY UP MOST OF THE NIGHT WITH THE
DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW IN THE LEE OF THE ROCKIES. THE DRYLINE WILL
MAKE A STRONG PUSH DURING THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON
SUNDAY...PUSHING THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF THE CWA BY 21Z. THIS WILL
LEAVE A VERY SMALL WINDOW TO GET SOME STORMS TO FIRE IN THE WARM
SECTOR AND ALONG THE BOUNDARY ACROSS THE FAR E/SE COUNTIES. THE
DAY2 OUTLOOK HAS SHIFTED THE SLIGHT RISK AREA NE OF OUR CWA BUT
WILL HANG ONTO OUR SMALL CHANCES OF SVR FOR OUR NE COUNTIES UNTIL WE
KNOW FOR SURE.

THE STRONG WESTERLY MID LEVEL WINDS WILL KEEP ANY ACTIVITY ON
SUNDAY VERY ISOLATED. ITS SPRING...SO CANT RULE OUT SEVERE
ACTIVITY IN OUR AREA BASED ON VERY WARM TEMPS...BUT THE CAPPING
INVERSION SHOULD LIMIT COVERAGE. WESTERLY DOWNSLOPING WINDS WILL
BRING VERY WARM AND EVEN HOT TEMPS TO THE REGION...WITH SOME
TRIPLE DIGITS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS AND RECORD HEAT.
THIS WILL ADD TO FIRE CONCERNS ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON...SEE
ADDITIONAL INFO BELOW IN THE FIRE SECTION.

&&

.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...
LARGE UPPER LOW WILL CONTINUE TO CHURN UP IN THE MIDWEST THE FIRST
PART OF THE WEEK...KEEPING SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS IN A GENERALLY WESTERLY
FLOW PATTERN.  THIS WILL KEEP THE AREA DRY AND WARM ON MONDAY AND
TUESDAY BEFORE SURFACE PRESSURES START INCREASING AS THE UPPER LOW
TAPS INTO SOME COOLER AIR AND DRAGS IT INTO TEXAS.  THE MIDDLE TO
END OF THE WEEK WILL SEE A RESULTING COOL DOWN WITH HIGHS BACK DOWN
TO NORMAL LEVELS (LOW 80S) WHILE NIGHTTIME LOWS WILL BE COOLER THAN
NORMAL WITH LOWS IN THE 40S AND 50S. WILL NOT MENTION ANY POP IN THE
EXTENDED FORECAST.

.FIRE WEATHER...
THE COMBINATION OF WESTERLY DOWNSLOPING SURFACE WINDS AND LOWERING
RH DURING THE DAY ON SUNDAY WILL BRING CRITICAL FIRE WX CONDITIONS
SUNDAY AFTERNOON ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CWA. HAVE UPGRADED
THE FIRE WX WATCH TO A RED FLAG WARNING AND INCLUDED AREAS ALONG
AND WEST OF I-35. WHILE THE HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE
ON MONDAY...A WEAKER GRADIENT WILL KEEP CONDITIONS AT NEAR
CRITICAL. HAVE THUS DROPPED THE FIRE WATCH FOR MONDAY.

515 AM CDT SAT APR 26 2014

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS NORTH TEXAS THIS
WEEKEND. THE DISTURBANCE AND DAYTIME HEATING ALONG THE DRYLINE
WILL CAUSE THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS
EVENING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN EDWARDS PLATEAU AND RIO GRANDE PLAINS.
SOME OF THESE STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS. EVEN THOUGH THE PRIMARY THREAT AREA IS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
EDWARDS PLATEAU AND WESTERN HILL COUNTRY...ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS
COULD REACH AS FAR EAST AS HIGHWAY 281. THE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS
INCLUDES THE SAN ANTONIO METRO AREA. THE INTENSITY OF THE THUNDERSTORMS
WILL DECREASE TONIGHT...BUT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

AS THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES TO THE EAST...THE THREAT FOR
SEVERE WEATHER WILL SHIFT TO EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE REGION SUNDAY
AFTERNOON. THE MAIN THREAT AREA IS ALONG AND EAST OF A LINE FROM
GEORGETOWN TO AUSTIN TO HALLETTSVILLE. THE MAIN THREATS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

ADDITIONALLY...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS SUNDAY AND MONDAY
ACROSS THE HILL COUNTRY...SOUTHERN EDWARDS PLATEAU...AND NORTHERN
RIO GRANDE PLAINS.

NEAR CRITICAL TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE
REGION DUE TO LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITIES AND GUSTY WINDS IN THE WAKE
OF A FRONT.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUIRED THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
