Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX
402 PM CDT TUE MAY 17 2016

.SHORT TERM (Tonight through Wednesday Night...Plenty of
instability out there this afternoon with a boundary along our
northern border. This boundary is the focus for convection that
has developed across far northeaster zones this afternoon. Still
have the potential for additional development, but will need some
more heating west to reach convective temperature. Biggest threat
will be large hail and the potential for damaging wind. Very high
CAPE across the entire area. Eastern zones south of the boundary
remain capped...and the environment will likely be such that any
convection that approaches through the afternoon/evening will
weaken. That said...PWAT values forecast to be back up around 2
inches by this evening...18z CRP sounding indicated 1.72 inches,
so plenty of moisture to work with. At this time will not issue
flash flood watch for coastal counties with models indicating
lower chances of significant convection there. However...if
convection does begin to approach the area where heavy rains fell
the past few days, a flash flood watch may become necessary.

Cold front will push into the area tonight keeping the potential
for convection going. Models continue to be all over the place as
far as convection for tomorrow with no consistency. Have chance
pops area wide once again as boundary stalls over the region. QPF
values still not expected to be excessive yet...though isolated
locations could get heavy rains with PWAT remaining around 2
inches. Coastal trough begins to develop Wednesday night, setting
the stage for additional convection.

&&

.LONG TERM (Thursday through Tuesday)...Pattern will begin fairly
wet and stormy as the upper low over the SW CONUS opens up and
shears across TX as a short wave.  Forcing associated with the short
wave combined with deep mstr (pwat >2.0 inch) will create a
favorable heavy rain scenario.  See hydro section for more info.
Strong storms also possible Thurs with decent instability but
limited a bit by high mstr content.

Storm chances decrease through the weekend into early next week as
short wave ridging develops ahead of the next system to dig into the
southwest.  Will maintain low pops over most of the area throughout
the period though as mstr remains high.  We'll also have a residual
boundary over the area Fri/Sat which could focus activity a bit. HPC
temps look tough to beat through the period.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...Isolated locations could see heavy rainfall tonight
and Wednesday with scattered convection, but higher chances remain
for the Thursday time period. Much of the area remains in the Day
3 Slight Risk for excessive rainfall. Highest flooding risk
remains where the heavy rains fell Sun-Mon in an Arc along the
coastal plain. As little as 1-2 inches of rain would cause
flooding problems there and that is around how much is forecast at
this point for Thursday. Flash Flood Watches will likely be needed
for parts of the area. River flooding is also possible especially
on faster responding smaller tributaries.
