.A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT SEPARATES A DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING SOUTH THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PLAINS FROM A CANADIAN FRONT
EXITING THE SOUTHEAST GULF OF MEXICO. STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS ARE
THE RESULT.

IN ADDITION...ARCTIC AIR SPILLING ACROSS THE RELATIVELY WARM GULF
WATERS IS MAKING FOR AN UNSTABLE MARINE LAYER. NORTHERLY WINDS
WILL BE GUSTY AT TIMES.

WITH WINDS DIMINISHING THROUGH THE DAY...TIDE LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO
RISE AND ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE THE LOW WATER ADVISORY
CRITERION OF -1.0 FOOT MEAN LOWER LOW WATER. THEREFORE THE LOW
WATER ADVISORY HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

AREA IS SANDWICHED BETWEEN TWO BANDS OF STRATOCU...WITH SKIES SKC
OR BECOMING THAT WAY AT LFT AND ARA. EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS
THROUGH EARLY EVENING WITH MODERATE SELY WINDS. MVFR CIGS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP DURING THE EVENING WITH WINDS REMAINING
BETWEEN 5-10 KT OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL VEER TOWARD THE SW SUNDAY
MORNING AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA. INCLUDED VCSH AT TAF
SITES AFTER 12Z...WITH PROB30 GROUPS AT BPT AND AEX TOWARD LATE
MORNING AS THE FRONT REACHES THESE SITES. 24

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 931 AM CST SAT JAN 4 2014/

UPDATE...
NOT MUCH CHANGE NEEDED TO THE UPDATE THIS MORNING. DID GO AHEAD
AND ADD SCEC TO SOME OF THE COASTAL WATERS ZONES TONIGHT AS
SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASE AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

OTHERWISE EARLY GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW COLDER TEMPERATURES
MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. ALREADY CONTEMPLATING THE ISSUANCE OF A
HARD FREEZE WATCH MONDAY SUNDAY NIGHT/MONDAY MORNING ALONG AND
NORTH OF I-10 WHERE MULTI-MODEL ENSEMBLE DATA SUGGEST 80% OR
GREATER PROBABILITY AND THIS IS WITH CAA ALONE.

ALSO MAY NEED A WIND ADVISORY TOMORROW IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT
AND TOMORROW NIGHT ALONG THE COAST.

THESE ARE JUST A FEW THINGS WE ARE LOOKING AT FOR THE FULL
AFTERNOON UPDATE. 27

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 713 AM CST SAT JAN 4 2014/

DISCUSSION...
AN EARLY-MORNING COASTAL FRONT STRETCHES THROUGH PORT ARTHUR TX
THROUGH MARSH ISLAND LA...WILL WASH OUT BY LATE MORNING.

THE EARLY-MORNING SOUNDING OVER LAKE CHARLES DEPICTS TWO INVERSIONS.
A WEAK FRONTAL INVERSION (AROUND THE 400-FOOT LEVEL) SEPARATES
SURFACE CONTINENTAL POLAR AIR FROM ADVECTING GULF AIR ALOFT.

THE SECOND ADVECTION INVERSION (AROUND THE 4000-FOOT LEVEL)
SEPARATES ADVECTING GULF AIR FROM ADVECTING DRY TEXAS AIR ALOFT.

VFR STATUS WILL PREVAIL THIS MORNING...BECOMING MORE FRAGMENTED IN
THE AFTERNOON.

A TRAVELING COLD FRONT WILL ENTER THE LAKES REGION OF SOUTHEAST
TEXAS BY EARLY MORNING SUNDAY.

21

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 358 AM CST SAT JAN 4 2014/

DISCUSSION...SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTING STRATOCU AT ABOUT 3K
FT OVER MUCH OF THE NEAR GULF WATERS AND ADVANCING INTO THE
SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE INLAND AREA. CLOUDS MARKING THE ONSET OF A
RETURN FLOW THAT WILL OVERSPREAD THE AREA THROUGH THE DAY. AFTER A
VERY COOL START...EXPECTING AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB TO
NEAR SEASONAL NORMS...AROUND 60. VERY MILD NIGHT AHEAD AS
STRENGTHENING AND DEEPENING SOUTHERLIES MAINTAIN STRONG WARM AIR
ADVECTION. TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO DROP NO LOWER THAN THE LOW TO
MID 50S. THIS ALL OCCURRING AHEAD OF A STRONG FRONTAL PASSAGE AHEAD
FOR SUNDAY.

MID/UPPER TROF DIGGING AND DEEPENING THROUGH THE PLAINS SUNDAY WILL BE
ACCOMPANIED BY THE STRONGEST FRONTAL PASSAGE THUS FAR THIS SEASON.
ATTENDANT NE-SW ORIENTED FRONT PROGGED TO REACH THE LAKES AREA OF
INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS JUST AFTER SUNRISE SUNDAY...EXITING
ACADIANA TOWARD MID AFTERNOON. SHOULD SEE SOME SHOWER ACTIVITY
ALONG THE FRONT WHERE STRONG LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE WILL BE IN
PLACE. RAINFALL TOTALS WILL REMAIN VERY LIMITED HOWEVER PRIMARILY
A RESULT OF THE RAPID MOVEMENT OF THE BOUNDARY. DOME OF ARCTIC AIR
PLUNGING SOUTHEAST IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WILL BRING A ROUND OF
FREEZING TEMPERATURES FOR MONDAY MORNING FOR ALL OF THE AREA
EXCEPT THE IMMEDIATE COAST. A SIGNIFICANT HARD FREEZE IS THEN
EXPECTED AREA-WIDE TUESDAY MORNING. GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO TREND
TEMPERATURES A DEGREE OR TWO LOWER WITH EACH RUN OVER THE LAST FEW
DAYS. MADE A DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENT THIS MORNING AND AM SHOWING UPPER
TEENS NORTH AND LOW 20S SOUTH...NEARING OR REACHING RECORD LOWS.
A HARD FREEZE WARNING WILL BE FORTHCOMING. DAYTIME HIGHS MONDAY
TUESDAY WILL GENERALLY RANGE ONLY INTO THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S
DESPITE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES.

COLD SURFACE HIGH ADVANCING EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA WILL BRING
WARMING SOUTHERLIES BACK INTO THE PICTURE WEDNESDAY...AND BY THE
LATTER PART OF THE WEEK WILL BE SEEING TEMPERATURES RETURNING TO
WELL ABOVE THE NORM. ALONG WITH THE WARMER TEMPERATURES WILL BE AN
INFLUX OF GULF MOISTURE AND WITH IT A DAILY CHANCE FOR A FEW
SHOWERS AHEAD OF OUR NEXT FRONTAL PASSAGE THIS WEEKEND.

MARINE...LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTHERLIES WILL BE MAINTAINED TODAY
AND INTO SUNDAY ACROSS THE NORTHWEST GULF. A STRONG COLD FRONT WITH
THE POTENTIAL A FEW SHOWERS WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE AREA LATE SUNDAY
WITH A STRENGTHENING OFFSHORE FLOW FOLLOWING IN ITS WAKE. SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE REQUIRED...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG
ENOUGH WINDS DEVELOPING FOR REQUIRED ISSUANCE OF A GALE WARNING.
WINDS WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN GOING THROUGH MONDAY...WITH A MODERATE
RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING FOR MID-WEEK AS COLD HIGH PRESSURE ADVANCES
