AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO TX
654 AM CDT SUN MAY 24 2015

.UPDATE...
RAINS ARE MOVING OUT OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS. THERE COULD BE SOME
ISOLATED WEST TO SCATTERED EAST REDEVELOPMENT MIDDAY INTO THIS
AFTERNOON AS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS LINGERS. HOWEVER...HEAVY
RAINS WILL ONLY BE ISOLATED. AS A RESULT...HAVE CANCELLED THE
FLASH FLOOD WATCH. THE FOCUS NOW TURNS TO A POTENTIAL HEAVY RAIN
AND STRONG TO SEVERE STORM EVENT ON MONDAY AS AN UPPER TROUGH
CURRENTLY SEEN OVER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MOVES ACROSS TEXAS. A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH MAY BE ISSUED LATER TODAY OR TONIGHT FOR MONDAY.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 648 AM CDT SUN MAY 24 2015/

AVIATION... /12Z TAF UPDATE/
IMPROVING CONDITIONS SHOULD DEVELOP IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING
SLOW MOVING MCS...BUT ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE SHOULD LEAD TO A
FEW HOURS OF SCATTERED IFR TO MVFR CIGS THIS MORNING. ISOLATED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO POP UP LATE IN THE
AFTERNOON...BUT CONFIDENCE REMAINS POOR ON TIMING AND LOCATION.
WILL LEAVE CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS OUT OF THE TAFS UNTIL MORE MODEL
DATA CAN ANALYZE THE POST STORM ENVIRONMENT. HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT
IN SOILS AND LOW LEVELS SHOULD RESULT IN QUICK SATURATION
TONIGHT...BUT EXPECT INCREASING SOUTHERLIES IN ADVANCE OF ANOTHER
APPROACHING SHORTWAVE TROUGH TO KEEP MOST CONDITIONS IN IFR OR
BETTER FOR MONDAY MORNING.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 405 AM CDT SUN MAY 24 2015/

SHORT TERM (TODAY THROUGH MONDAY)...
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE TRANS PECOS AND AN MCV BETWEEN
VICTORIA AND SAN ANTONIO ARE DRIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST. RAIN AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE OVER THE HILL COUNTRY TO ALONG I-35 NORTHEAST OF
SAN ANTONIO TO THE COASTAL PLAINS. NO SIGNIFICANT REDEVELOPMENT IS
EXPECTED OVER THE RIO GRANDE AND WESTERN EDWARDS PLATEAU DUE TO
SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF THESE FEATURES AND HAVE CANCELLED FLASH
FLOOD WATCH FOR THAT AREA. SEVERE PARAMETERS ARE BECOMING LESS
FAVORABLE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. HAVE ALLOWED TORNADO WATCH
198 TO EXPIRE. EXPECT RAIN AND THUNDERSTORMS TO END FROM WEST TO
EAST THIS MORNING. HOWEVER...THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS LINGERS
ALLOWING FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO POSSIBLY REDEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON INTO EVENING ACROSS MAINLY EASTERN AREAS WITH LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINS AND ISOLATED STRONG STORMS POSSIBLE. HAVE CONTINUED
FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THESE AREAS UNTIL 7 PM CDT THIS EVENING.
HOWEVER...IT MAY BE CANCELLED EARLY IF THE TROUGH AXIS MOVES
FURTHER EAST. AFTER A RELATIVE LULL TONIGHT DUE TO DECREASED PWS
AND INCREASED STABILITY...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES ACROSS
TEXAS ON MONDAY. AIRMASS RESETS AS PWS CLIMB BACK TO NEAR 2 INCHES
WITH CAPES AND SHEAR INCREASING. THIS SETS THE STAGE FOR ANOTHER
ROUND OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS AND ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS.
LATER FORECASTS MAY HAVE TO ISSUE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR MONDAY.

LONG TERM (MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)...
SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LINGER IN THE EAST MONDAY EVENING
WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS POSSIBLE AS THE TROUGH MOVES TO THE EAST.
ZONAL FLOW TAKES HOLD FOR TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...A
MOIST AIRMASS REMAINS ALLOWING FOR MAINLY ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES ACROSS TEXAS NEXT
WEEKEND WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY.
