Area forecast discussion, May 26, 8:00 PM CDT, 44 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
800 PM CDT THU MAY 26 2016

.UPDATE...
Have updated and extended the Flash Flood Advisory for SE TX into
tomorrow afternoon. Line of training storms have persisted across
northern parts of the CWA this afternoon into this evening. There
is concerns with the possibility of more storms tomorrow and this
could further exacerbate our ongoing flood issues. 41

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...

AVIATION...
A nearly solid line of thunderstorms extends between Cleveland
and Brenham and is slowly drifting to the south toward the KIAH
airspace. I inserted a TEMPO for 3SM TSRA for th enext two hours with
hopes that the main thunderstorms will remain to the north of the
terminal. However, given the poor performance of our available
model guidance, I would not be surprised to see 1/2SM +TSRA within
the next two hours as the line continues to slowly drift to the
south.

A strong southeast flow continues to pump additional moisture in
to the thunderstorm complex while a train of upper level
disturbances and a split flow in the jetstream contribute to
generate sustained lift. It is likely that this system will
continue for the next few hours. We will likelyu get a break during
the early morning hours, however we expect a similar precipitation
scenario on Friday.

Terminals outside of the thunderstorm complex should remain MVFR
overnight. Those affected by the complex will rapidly experience
IFR/LIFR CIG and VIS conditions.                 Keehn
