.DISCUSSION...NOTE AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW.

&&

.AVIATION...IFR/MVFR CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES/STRONG TO SEVERE WIND
ASSOCIATED WITH SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE SERN SECTIONS AND
WL CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. AFTERWARD...PREDOMINATE
MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED OVER MOST LOCATIONS. INCREASING PREVAILING
NORTH WIND AND MVFR/VFR CEILINGS EXPECTED SATURDAY MID MORNING/
AFTERNOON. PREDOMINATE VFR CEILINGS/DECREASING WIND SATURDAY
EVENING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1132 PM CDT FRI MAR 18 2016/

DISCUSSION...AGREED WITH SPC REGARDING SVR WATCH FOR THE SERN
CWA/ADJACENT WATERS UNTIL 09Z SAT...LAPS CIN PROFILE NOTWITHSTANDING.
WCN ALREADY ISSUED. UPDATED THE CORRESPONDING WX GRIDS AND THE
ZFP/CWF. NO OTHER CHANGES.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 930 PM CDT FRI MAR 18 2016/

DISCUSSION...DID A QUICK UPDATE FOR ADJUSTING FIRST PERIOD GRIDS.
LOOKS LIKE THE STRONG/SEVERE CONVECTION WILL MAINLY BE CONFINED TO
THE WESTERN AREAS WHERE CAP IS WEAKEST AND INSTABILITY IS
GREATEST. FARTHER EAST...CAP IS STRONGER AND NEAR THE COAST A
MARINE LAYER MAY WELL PRECLUDE STORMS FROM BECOMING TOO STRONG.
AFTER COORDINATION WITH SPC...WILL HANDLE THE STRONG/ISOLATED
SEVERE CONVECTION BY WARNINGS (TOO CONFINED TO THE WEST FOR A
WATCH)...ALTHOUGH COULD NOT RULE OUT A ROGUE STORM EAST OF THE
HIGHWAY PRODUCING HAIL NEAR 1 INCH. LOWERED POPS A BIT OFF IN THE
GULF FOR THIS EVENING...BUT INCREASED THEM AFTER 06Z EASTERN AREAS
WHERE ONLY 50 POPS OR LESS WERE FORECAST. OVERALL...FORECAST IS OK
THE REST OF THE WAY. UPDATES ARE OUT.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 600 PM CDT FRI MAR 18 2016/

DISCUSSION...SEE 00Z AVIATION DISCUSSION.

AVIATION...WILL BASE CONVECTION FORECAST ON A BLEND OF THE HRRR
(WHICH HAS BEEN CONSISTENT AND SLIGHTLY SLOWER WITH EACH RUN) AND
TO A LESSER EXTENT THE TIMING OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH SHOULD
BEGIN TO MOVE INTO THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA AROUND 03Z
THEN MOVE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA BY 07Z. MAY MAKE SOME
LAST MINUTE CHANGES (MAINLY FOR FORECAST WITHIN THE FIRST SIX
HOURS)...BASED ON RADAR TRENDS. THUS...WILL HAVE VCTS IN KLRD TO
START...AND PUT VCTS FARTHER EAST BY 02Z/03Z (MAY ADJUST LAST
MINUTE BY AN HOUR OR SO). WILL HAVE TEMPO THUNDER WITH SUSTAINED
30 KTS AND GUSTS 40KTS STARTING 00Z/01Z AT KLRD...THEN 02Z-04Z
OTHER TERMINALS...WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS SOUTH OF THE AREA BY
04Z/05Z AND 07Z/08Z FROM WEST TO EAST. STILL POTENTIAL FOR SOME
MORE STRATIFORM THUNDER IN THE TERMINALS (MAINLY EASTERN) AFTER
FROPA THROUGH ABOUT 11Z...AND HAVE GONE WITH CATEGORICAL THUNDER
EASTERN TERMINALS. WILL END THUNDER EASTERN TERMINALS BY
11Z...WITH A MENTION OF (PROB30) A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS KCRP
AFTER 11Z. GUSTY NORTH WINDS WITH FROPA...MAINTAINING THEIR GUSTS
THROUGH MOST OF THE AFTERNOON THEN TAPERING OFF LATE (BUT STILL
SUSTAINED 11 KNOTS). CONCERNING CIGS...AM EXPECTING MVFR
CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP OVER THE TERMINALS BEFORE FROPA...THEN
CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING BEFORE THEY IMPROVE AOA 16Z (SEE
INDIVIDUAL TERMINALS FOR DETAILS). COULD HAVE IFR OR LOWER CIGS
WITH THE STRONGEST CONVECTION. ENOUGH SAID...WANTED TO GET THIS
OUT WHILE I HAD THE TIME.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 350 PM CDT FRI MAR 18 2016/

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT)...THE MAIN FORECAST
CONCERN TONIGHT WILL BE STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. CURRENTLY...
THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING TO THE WEST OVER MEXICO. HI-RES
MODELS MARCH THIS ACTIVITY TO THE EAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. STRONG INSTABILITY COUPLED WITH DECENT SHEAR WILL LEAD TO
THE POSSIBILITY OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING AND
TONIGHT. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WOULD BE PRIMARY HAZARDS. A
FEW VERY LARGE HAIL REPORTS (2 INCH OR GREATER) COULD OCCUR OVER
THE RIO GRANDE PLAINS THIS EVENING. SEVERE THREAT WOULD ADVANCE
EASTWARD AS THUNDERSTORMS ORGANIZE INTO A COMPLEX. LATEST RUNS OF
HI RES GUIDANCE HAVE SPED UP THE TIMING AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE
PUSHING OFF THE COAST AROUND 3 AM. FURTHER REFINEMENTS WILL LIKELY
BE NEEDED AS TRENDS BECOME MORE CLEAR THIS EVENING. COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA LATER TONIGHT. MUCH COOLER AIR AND
CONTINUED CLOUD COVER WILL LEAD TO A CHILLY DAY ON SATURDAY.
BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL ALSO PERSIST THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY WITH
STRONGEST WINDS OVER THE GULF WATERS. HIGHS WILL ONLY BE IN THE
LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S OVER ACROSS THE AREA...BUT A FEW SPOTS ACROSS
WEBB COUNTY MAY HOLD IN THE UPPER 50S. RAIN CHANCES WILL THEN
SUBSIDE FROM WEST TO EAST ON SATURDAY AS DRIER FILTERS INTO SOUTH
TEXAS. A VERY CHILLY NIGHT WILL BE IN STORE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY MORNING. LOWS WILL BE IN THE 40S IN MOST LOCATIONS WITH
LOWER 50S ALONG THE COAST. IF SKIES CAN CLEAR MORE QUICKLY...LOWS
MAY BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN WHAT IS FORECAST.

MARINE...STRONG OFFSHORE FLOW WILL OCCUR IN WAKE OF A COLD FRONT
ON SATURDAY. WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN AND HAZARDOUS SEAS WILL DEVELOP
BOTH OVER THE BAYS AND GULF WATERS. A FEW GUSTS TO GALE FORCE WILL
BE POSSIBLE BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH FOR A GALE WATCH OR
WARNING. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT BEGINNING 4 AM ON
SATURDAY AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING (FOR NOW).

LONG TERM (SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)...LONG TERM PERIOD RELATIVELY
QUIET COMPARED TO SHORT TERM. WE START OFF WITH AN UNSEASONABLY COOL
MORNING SUNDAY. LOWS IN THE 40S FOR A MAJORITY OF THE AREA...AROUND
10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR MANY LOCATIONS. SURFACE RIDGE BUILDS
THROUGH TEXAS DURING THE DAY SUNDAY THEN SHIFTS OFF TO THE EAST ON
MONDAY. EXPECT ANOTHER COOL DAY...BUT SUNNY ON SUNDAY WITH HIGHS
IN THE 60S. ONSHORE FLOW RETURNS MONDAY AFTERNOON AS THE RIDGE
SHIFTS EASTWARD AND WILL ALLOW FOR GRADUALLY INCREASING MOISTURE
AND TEMPERATURES. THE NEXT UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE TO POTENTIALLY
AFFECT THE AREA WILL BE MOVING OVER THE ROCKIES BY WEDNESDAY INTO
THURSDAY. WHILE MOST OF THE ENERGY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
DISTURBANCE REMAINS IN NORTH TEXAS...COULD HAVE ENOUGH OF AN
INFLUENCE IN SOUTH TEXAS TO PRODUCE SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS...THE
BEST CHANCE BEING NORTHEAST. GFS DEFINITELY THE WETTER MODEL WITH
THE ECMWF NOT SHOWING MUCH. WITH PWATS WELL OVER AN INCH BY THIS
TIME AND TEMPERATURES ALOFT NOT TOO WARM...FEEL COMFORTABLE
INCLUDING A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR CONVECTION AS A COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH ON THURSDAY. BEHIND THE FRONT WILL SEE TEMPERATURES
COOLING TO HIGHS IN THE 70S ONCE AGAIN.
