Area forecast discussion, May 25, 7:17 PM CDT, 2 hours 16 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AUSTIN/SAN ANTONIO TX 717 PM CDT MON MAY 25 2015 .AVIATION.../00Z TAFS/ STORMS HAVE CLEARED ALL TAF SITES...BUT WILL INCLUDE VCTS THROUGH 01Z FOR SAT/SSF/AUS IN CASE BACKBUILDING STORMS PRODUCE A ROGUE LIGHTNING STRIKE. A MESO LOW HAS FORMED BEHIND THIS LINE...WHICH WILL CAUSE VARIABLE WINDS BELOW 10 KTS AT SAT/SSF/AUS FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WILL HANDLE THIS WITH AMENDMENTS IF THEY INCREASE ABOVE 10 KTS. DRY AIR EVIDENT ON WV IMAGERY WILL HELP DRY OUT THE MID AND UPPER LEVELS...BUT MOIST LOW LEVEL SE FLOW WILL ALLOW VFR CIGS TO LOWER TO IFR BY 7Z AT SAT/SSF/AUS AND MVFR BY 9Z AT DRT. MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS LIFR CIGS COULD DEVELOP BETWEEN 10-14Z AT SAT/SSF/AUS...BUT WILL REEVALUATE THIS WITH THE 06Z TAF PACKAGE. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 447 PM CDT MON MAY 25 2015/ ..SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING ONGOING ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS... SHORT TERM (TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY)... A STRONG NEGATIVELY TILTED UPPER LEVEL TROUGH HAS CAUSED A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT THAT HAS ALREADY PRODUCED A FEW TORNADOES IN THE HILL COUNTRY AND WIDESPREAD FLASH FLOODING IN THE HILL COUNTRY AND I-35 CORRIDOR IS ONGOING THIS AFTERNOON. A FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY HAS ALSO BEEN ISSUED FOR EASTERN WILLIAMSON AND TRAVIS COUNTIES AFTER 3 TO 5 INCHES OF RAIN FELL IN TWO HOURS. THE PRIMARY THREAT FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS WILL CONTINUE TO BE SIGNIFICANT FLASH AND RIVER FLOODING...WITH THE LATTER CONTINUING INTO AT LEAST THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. RAINFALL RATES UP TO 4 INCHES PER HOUR HAVE OCCURRED THIS AFTERNOON...BUT THESE RATES SHOULD BEGIN TO DECREASE SLIGHTLY AS THESE STORMS CONTINUE TO MERGE INTO A LINE OVER THE I-35 CORRIDOR FROM THE SAN ANTONIO METRO AND AREAS NORTH BEFORE PUSHING EAST ACROSS OUR CWA. DRY AIR MOVING IN FROM THE WEST EVIDENT ON WV IMAGERY SHOULD CONTINUE TO CAUSE PWAT VALUES TO DECREASE AND END THE HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT FROM WEST TO EAST AS WE MOVE INTO THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. THUS...THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED FOR OUR WESTERNMOST COUNTIES...BUT CONTINUES FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS THROUGH 1 AM CDT TUESDAY. ALTHOUGH SHEAR VALUES HAVE DECREASED SLIGHTLY FROM THE 50-55 KT SEEN EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON IN THE HILL COUNTRY...HELICITY VALUES ABOVE 200-300 M^2/S^2 AND LOW LCLS ALONG AND EAST OF I-35 WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THE TORNADO THREAT FOR THIS AREA FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT FEW HOURS. TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE WITHIN MORE DISCRETE CELLS WITHIN THE LINE OF STORMS CURRENTLY CENTERED OVER THE I-35 CORRIDOR NORTH OF SAN ANTONIO AND EXPANDING INTO NE TX AND SE OK. THUS...A TORNADO WATCH CONTINUES UNTIL 10 PM CDT FOR THE EASTERN HILL COUNTRY...AND ALL COUNTIES ALONG AND NORTH OF THE I-10 CORRIDOR AND ALONG AND EAST OF THE I-35 CORRIDOR NORTHEAST OF THE SAN ANTONIO METRO. DRY AIR WILL GRACIOUSLY FILL INTO THE ENTIRE CWA BY EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...BUT ANOTHER WEAK SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THE PERSISTENT LONGWAVE TROUGH TO OUR WEST MAY TRIGGER ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON IN THE SERRENIAS DEL BURRO THAT MOVE INTO THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS. ELSEWHERE...AMPLE BOUNDARY LAYER AND SOIL MOISTURE WITH DAYTIME TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE UPPER 80S MAY STILL ALLOW FOR VERY ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...BUT DRY AIR SHOULD PREVENT DEVELOPMENT. IN ADDITION...WEAK SHORTWAVE RIDING SHOULD BEGIN TO BUILD IN BY LATE TUESDAY NIGHT TO LIMIT OUR RAIN CHANCES. LONG TERM (TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)... A BRIEF PERIOD OF SHORTWAVE RIDGING WITH RELATIVELY DRY AIR WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY THURSDAY...GIVING THE REGION A MUCH NEEDED BREAK FROM THE HEAVY RAINFALL PATTERN WE HAVE BEEN IN FOR SEVERAL WEEKS FOR A FEW DAYS. HOWEVER...WILL STILL CARRY ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR WEDNESDAY DUE TO AMPLE BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE AND SOIL MOISTURE WITH HIGHS NEARING 90 DEGREES. ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHES THE REGION ON THURSDAY TO BREAK DOWN THIS RIDGE...INCREASING THE COVERAGE OF AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...PARTICULARLY IN THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS. MODELS GENERALLY AGREE THAT THE MAIN ENERGY FROM THIS UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SHOULD REMAIN TO OUR NORTH...BUT ALSO SUGGEST THAT IT WILL NOT BE VERY PROGRESSIVE AND STICK AROUND UNTIL AT LEAST SUNDAY. CONSIDERING THAT A FEW WEAK BOUNDARIES MAY SLIP INTO THE REGION TO PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL FOCUS FOR CONVECTION...RAINFALL CHANCES WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT THAT HAS ALREADY PRODUCED WIDESPREAD FLASH FLOODING...TORNADOES...AND DAMAGING WINDS IN THE HILL COUNTRY AND I-35 CORRIDOR WILL CONTINUE INTO THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. THE PRIMARY THREAT WILL CONTINUE TO BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL CAUSING FLASH FLOODING AND RIVER FLOODING...BUT TORNADOES AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF THE I-35 CORRIDOR. UP TO 7 INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN IN ISOLATED SPOTS WITH WIDESPREAD 2 TO 5 INCH TOTALS IN THE NORTHERN PARTS OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS. ADDITIONAL RAIN TOTALS MAINLY EAST OF I-35 ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM 1 TO 3 INCHES WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS OVER 5 INCHES POSSIBLE. DUE TO THE MULTIPLE WEATHER THREATS AND RIVER FLOODING THREATS ONGOING DURING THIS MEMORIAL DAY HOLIDAY...IT IS IMPERATIVE TO STAY AWARE OF THE WEATHER SITUATION. TRAVEL IS HIGHLY DISCOURAGED DUE TO WIDESPREAD FLASH FLOODING THAT IS NOT JUST CONFINED TO LOW WATER CROSSINGS. IF YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST TRAVEL...KNOW BEFORE YOU GO WHAT ROADS MAY BE EXPERIENCING FLOODING AND IF ANY ARE ENCOUNTERED...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ABLE TO RECEIVE WARNINGS FROM YOUR TRUSTED SOURCES VIA RADIO...TELEVISION...OR MOBILE DEVICE. ENSURE BATTERIES ARE CHARGED IN DEVICES THAT REQUIRE THEM. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. RIVER FLOODING WILL LIKELY CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...CAUSING A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON TRAVEL. ALTHOUGH WE EXPECT A BRIEF LULL IN HEAVY RAINFALL FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM MAY BRING HEAVY RAINFALL TO SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS LATE THURSDAY AND LINGER THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IT WILL BE UNLIKELY THAT THE AREA WILL BE ABLE TO IMPROVE SUBSTANTIALLY FROM THE RECENT RAINFALL SO MORE FLASH FLOODING POTENTIAL WILL EXIST AGAIN LATE THIS WEEK. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE NEEDED THROUGH THIS EVENING.
