The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 1, 12:26 AM CDT, 2 hours 38 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 1, 12:26 AM CDT, 2 hours 38 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 1226 AM CDT WED JUN 1 2016 .AVIATION... SHRA/TSRA are developing well N of KDRT while other SHRA/TSRA are over the Big Bend region. These will move across the Rio Grande and Edwards Plateau area overnight to near the I-35 corridor early Wednesday morning. Additional development of SHRA/TSRA is possible midday thru evening. Have mentioned VCTS/VCSH at the TAF sites for those time periods. MVFR CIGS will form across South Central Texas in the next few hours and lower to IFR by Wednesday morning. CIGS will then slowly rise to VFR by early afternoon. VRBL winds around 5 kts across the east and SEly 5 to 10 kts in the west will become all SEly on Wednesday. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 801 PM CDT TUE MAY 31 2016/ UPDATE... Rain has nearly all moved off to the east with only a few showers developing west of San Antonio. The atmosphere is fairly worked over and we think the chances for any more rain this evening are lower than we previously expected. Have lowered the POPs for the rest of the evening. Temperatures across the eastern half of the area are rain cooled and with the sun almost down can't see any recovery. So, have also lowered the low temperatures. Still expecting precip to develop overnight with locally heavy rain possible. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 653 PM CDT TUE MAY 31 2016/ AVIATION... This TAF period is a tricky one with ongoing high chances for convection in the next 24 hours. Showers and thunderstorms should be over in Austin and San Antonio for the rest of the evening and VFR conditions should prevail. There is a weakening area of showers in Mexico that may move across the river, but at this time that does not look likely. So, DRT should remain VFR through the evening. In Austin and San Antonio, CIGs will drop to MVFR and then IFR overnight. Have included TSRA after 06Z or 07Z until mid-morning Wednesday. This is likely too long a period of rain, but can't pin down exact timing right now. CIGs should improve starting late morning reaching VFR by early afternoon. Convection is possible during the day Wednesday, but have not included any in TAFs. AT DRT CIGs will drop to MVFR around 10z and chances for convection will begin at that time. CIGs will improve to VFR by around 15Z. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 328 PM CDT TUE MAY 31 2016/ SHORT TERM (Tonight through Wednesday Night)... The first of many heavy rain episodes and storm complexes is currently passing through the CWA. The evolution of this system, which is a combination of high instability, high PWAT, mesoscale boundary interactions, and upper level shortwave disturbances will be indicative of the next few days. Hi-resolution models have been essentially guessing at how to handle convective initiation and coverage over the last several days...and with the exception of a decent HRRR handling of today's activity, have not improved. Thus, basically the forecast has heavily favored the synoptic models in conjunction with collaboration with neighbors and regional offices. Looking west of the current convection...IR satellite is showing convection enhancing across New Mexico and south of the Big Bend region. Believe this area will be round number 2 of heavy rain potential overnight tonight. While this round will not have the benefit of the higher instability from this afternoon, and a somewhat worked over atmosphere, would expect this activity out west to evolve into a mature MCS and move east into at least the western half of the CWA late tonight into tomorrow morning. There may be a lull in activity between the Wednesday morning activity but it will likely only be brief as the atmosphere destabilizes again into the afternoon and yet another shortwave swings northeast across...again...the Big Bend and Edwards Plateau. It is extremely difficult to hone in on specific amounts in any particular region, but given the antecedent conditions that have been well advertised, the flash flooding risk will be significant between now and Wednesday night. LONG TERM (Thursday through Tuesday)... The heavy rain and flooding threats continue Thursday as the main upper low responsible for all of these shortwave disturbances enters the state. By Thursday morning, focused upper level lift associated with the right entrance region of the upper low will be positioned from Del Rio to Waco. This, coupled with the same moisture and instability considerations to today and Wednesday will likely be our most significant heavy rainfall threat. At the surface, the EURO and GFS both indicate the development of a surface low over West Texas and pushes southeast along the Rio Grande River. This will...yet again...provide a surface based focus to additional heavy rain development Thursday afternoon and as the main upper low begins to slow in its movement and becomes more stagnant, could potentially result in training heavy rainfall as well. This round could persist through Friday morning before the heavy rain potential begins to finally wane Friday evening...if the upper low does indeed move east as progged. As a result...QPF values have further increased, now expected the potential for 4-7 inches between now and Friday morning but with the potential for some areas to reach as high as 15 inches before this event is over with. If this estimate comes to fruition, flash flooding impacts will be severe. And with so much uncertainty in the positioning of certain variables, it is not possible to highlight any one particular area for this threat. So all persons in South Central Texas should prepare for the prospect of flash flooding, perhaps extreme flash flooding, and make plans to be potentially impacted. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
