AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX
352 AM CST WED JAN 7 2015

...MUCH COLDER CONDITIONS TONIGHT AND THURSDAY...

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...DENSE ARCTIC AIR TO WORK ITS
WAY SLOWLY INTO DEEP SOUTH TEXAS TODAY BUT ONCE IT GETS HERE EXPECT
AT LEAST A 30 DEGREE DROP IN TEMPERATURES BY MID MORNING THURSDAY.

THE POLAR FRONT TO LIE ALONG A HOUSTON TO HONDO TO DEL RIO LINE BY 6
AM AND GRADUALLY WORK ITS WAY INTO DEEP SOUTH TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON.
LARGE BROAD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE...1055MB...TO BRIDGE ACROSS THE
FRONT WITH A GRADUALLY INCREASE OF NORTH WINDS. THE STRONGER
GRADIENT AND COLD AIR ADVECTION DOES NOT ARRIVE UNTIL LATER THIS
AFTERNOON OR JUST BEFORE SUNSET IN THE LOWER VALLEY. MODELS HAVE
BEEN TRENDING HIGHER WITH MAX TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO THE
SLOWER MOVEMENT AND WILL CONTINUE THIS TREND. MOISTURE REMAINS
SHALLOW THIS MORNING WITH FOG NOT EXPECTED TO BE MUCH OF AN ISSUE.
LACK OF LIFT UNTIL THE FRONT MOVES INTO THE AREA SO WILL KEEP RAIN
CHANGES NIL TO SLIGHT EARLY ON THEN INCREASE WEST TO EAST AS THE
FRONT PUSHES THROUGH.

FOR TONIGHT...GRADIENT TIGHTENS SIGNIFICANTLY AS PRESSURES RISES
SIGNIFICANTLY. SHALLOW AIRMASS OF ONLY 3-4K FEET DEEP TO WEDGE UNDER
THE MOIST SOUTHWEST FLOW. FRONT TO RESEMBLE MORE OF A KATAFRONT WITH
SHARP LOW LEVEL LIFT PROVIDING WIDESPREAD ASCENT OF THE HIGH PWAT
AIR WITH VALUES 140 PERCENT OF NORMAL. AREAS OF RAIN AND DRIZZLE TO
DEVELOP AFTER SUNSET WITH BEST CHANCES NEAR THE COAST. ONCE THE RAIN
BEGINS EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO FALL MORE RAPIDLY AS THE WET BULB
AFFECT COMMENCES. TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO FALL THROUGH MID MORNING
THURSDAY AS THE CENTER OF HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER NORTH TEXAS.
WIND CHILLS TO PLUMMET AS NORTH WINDS MAINTAIN MODERATE SPEEDS
OVERNIGHT. A WIND CHILL ADVISORY WILL BE POSTED BETWEEN 3 AND 10 AM
THURSDAY AS FEEL LIKE TEMPERATURES FALL BETWEEN 22-30 DEGREES
THROUGHOUT THE CWA. AMBIENT TEMPERATURES TO APPROACH FREEZING ACROSS
THE NORTHERN RANCH LANDS BUT THICK CLOUD COVER SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT
TO KEEP TEMPERATURES DROPPING BELOW FREEZING ELIMINATING THE THREAT
FOR ANY TYPE OF FROZEN OR FREEZING PRECIPITATION.

THURSDAY...ARCTIC AIRMASS WILL BE WELL ENTRENCHED OVER TEXAS WITH
DEWPOINTS PLUMMETING. AIRMASS ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION WILL BE DRY
ENOUGH TO LIMIT MUCH IN THE WAY OF PRECIPITATION. HIGHEST RAIN
CHANCES TO REMAIN NEAR THE COAST WHERE COASTAL TROUGHING BEGINS TO
TAKE SHAPE. CLOUDS AND CONTINUOUS NORTH WINDS TO KEEP TEMPERATURES
IN A VERY NARROW RANGE WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES AT LEAST 25 DEGREES
BELOW NORMAL.

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...CORE OF ARCTIC
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE WEAKENING AS IT MAKES IT INTO THE SOUTHEAST
CONUS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD WITH RIDGING FROM
THIS FEATURE EXTENDING ACROSS DEEP SOUTH TEXAS. HOWEVER...WITH
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT AND A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE
TROUGHS PROGGED TO MOVE CLOSE TO THE AREA...COASTAL TROUGHING WILL
DEVELOP LATER THURSDAY NIGHT AND INTENSIFY THROUGH THE WEEKEND
WITH A HINT OF A SURFACE LOW IN THE BAY OF CAMPECHE SATURDAY THEN
THE ENTIRE SYSTEM MOVES EASTWARD SUNDAY WITH THE LAST UPPER TROUGH
WHICH WILL MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN TEXAS.

PRECIPITATION CHANCES EARLY THURSDAY NIGHT WILL BE FAIRLY LOW WITH
THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BEING THE DOMINANT FEATURE BUT WILL QUICKLY
BE OVERCOME BY THE STRENGTHENING COASTAL TROUGH BY FRIDAY MORNING.
LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE WILL DEVELOP AND OVERSPREAD THE AREA FRIDAY
WITH OVERRUNNING AND UPPER SUPPORT ADDING TO THE MIX. A REINFORCING
SHOT OF COLDER AIR IS PROGGED TO ARRIVE FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT ON
NORTHERLY WINDS. TAKING A LOOK AT MODEL SOUNDINGS AND PROJECTED LOWS
SATURDAY MORNING...IT IS NOT OUT OF THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY FOR A
FEW SLEET PELLETS ACROSS THE NORTHERN RANCHLANDS OF JIM HOGG AND
ZAPATA COUNTIES. CONFIDENCE IS LOW AND HAVE NOT PLACED IN THE GRIDS
AND WILL WATCH WITH SUBSEQUENT SHIFTS. HIGHER PRECIPITATION CHANCES
WILL CONTINUE SATURDAY AREA WIDE BUT WILL BEGIN TO DECREASE FROM
WEST TO EAST SUNDAY AS THE WEAK LOW AND COASTAL TROUGH MOVE EASTWARD.

WITH CLOUDY SKIES AND CAA ADVECTION ON NORTHERLY WINDS...HIGHS ON
FRIDAY WILL BE IN THE MID 40S TO LOWER 50S. THE ARRIVAL OF THE NEXT
REINFORCEMENT SHOT WILL SEND LOWS TUMBLING INTO THE MID 30S IN THE
RANCHLANDS TO LOWER 40S IN THE LOWER VALLEY FRIDAY NIGHT. HIGHS WILL
ONLY RISE A COUPLE OF DEGREES SATURDAY WITH NEAR 40 IN THE
RANCHLANDS TO NEAR 50 AT THE COAST. SUNDAY HIGHS WILL MODERATE
SOMEWHAT AS THE SYSTEM PULLS EASTWARD.

EVEN THOUGH NOT EXPECTING BELOW FREEZING AMBIENT TEMPERATURES AT THIS
TIME... FEELS-LIKE TEMPERATURES AT DAWN SATURDAY MORNING WILL BE IN
THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S ACROSS THE MAJORITY OF DEEP SOUTH TEXAS
WITH BRISK NORTHERLY WINDS. THESE FEELS-LIKE TEMPERATURES WILL ONLY
MODERATE SLIGHTLY SATURDAY WITH LOWER TO MIDDLE 30S BY MID
AFTERNOON. EXPECT THESE READINGS TO FALL TO THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER
30S AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT.

INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...MODERATING TEMPERATURES INTO THE MIDDLE 50S
FOR HIGHS IS EXPECTED WITH MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND INCREASINGLY
ZONAL FLOW ALOFT. PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL CONTINUE TO WANE BUT A
SLIGHT CHANCE FOR TUESDAY IS WARRANTED WITH WEAK OVERRUNNING AND
COASTAL TROUGHING.

&&

.MARINE...TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY...GALE WARNINGS ARE NOW IN
EFFECT FOR THE OFFSHORE WATERS. COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON WITH THE STRONG HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING THROUGH THURSDAY
MORNING. STRONGEST GRADIENT OCCURS OVERNIGHT WITH FREQUENT GALE
FORCE GUSTS. LOW CONFIDENCE IF THE LAGUNA MADRE WILL SEE GALES BUT
CAN NOT RULE OUT A FEW GUSTS RIGHT AT 34 KNOTS BETWEEN 9 PM AND
MIDNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD ALONG THE COAST THURSDAY
AFTERNOON WITH NORTH WINDS DIMINISH RATHER STEADILY BUT SEAS WILL
MORE THAN LIKELY LINGER THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES TO REPLACE THE GALE WARNING AND REMAINING IN PLACE ALL
DAY THURSDAY.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...SMALL CRAFT WILL NEED TO
EXERCISE CAUTION EARLY THURSDAY NIGHT WITH WINDS AND SEAS RELAXING
LATER THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY MID MORNING. FROM MID MORNING
FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY EXPECT ADVERSE MARINE CONDITIONS AS ANOTHER
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA AND SURFACE LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS
IN THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE
NEEDED THROUGH THIS ENTIRE PERIOD AS THIS SYSTEM WILL BE SLOW TO
DEPART. STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT
WITH A PERIOD OF NEAR GALE FORCE GUSTS POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT INTO
SATURDAY MORNING. SEA HEIGHTS WILL RISE TO AROUND 11 FEET FRIDAY
NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT WITH HEIGHTS SLOWLY FALLING THROUGH
THE DAY SUNDAY BUT REMAINING ABOVE 7 FEET.

THANKS FOR THE COORDINATION CRP AND HGX.
