AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
1001 PM CST WED MAR 9 2016
.DISCUSSION...
TRAINING MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY HEAVY RAINS ACROSS GALVESTON,
CHAMBERS, LIBERTY COUNTIES HAS PRODUCED A SWATH OF 2-4" RAINS
SINCE 5 PM. HIGHER THAN NORMAL TIDES ARE NOT LETTING STREETS
EFFICIENTLY DRAIN ON GALVESTON ISLAND...LEADING TO SOME MINOR
STREET FLOODING. WILL MONITOR CLOSELY AND WILL HAVE A QUICK
TRIGGER TO ISSUE A FLASH FLOOD WARNING SHOULD RAIN RATES INCREASE.
SHALLOW SURFACE BOUNDARY IS NOW SITUATED FROM ROUGHLY WINNIE-
GALVESTON-BUOY 42019. STILL HAVE MOIST AIR OVERRUNNING THIS
BOUNDARY...ALONG WITH FAVORABLE DIFFLUENCE ALOFT...ALLOWING PRECIP
TO CONTINUE. RAIN RATES ARE MOSTLY MANAGEABLE...GENERALLY BEEN
0.1-0.5"/HOUR. THESE RATES SHOULDN'T BE MUCH OF AN ISSUE IN THE
NEAR TERM...BUT PRECIP WILL STILL ADD UP BY THE HOUR. THE MORE
SATURATED THE GROUND BECOMES...THE LESS IT'LL TAKE FOR MINOR FF
ISSUES TO CROP UP. EYEBROWS WILL BEGIN TO LIFT ONCE AREAS THAT
DIDN'T SEE MUCH RAIN TODAY GET TO AROUND 2".
HAVEN'T SEEN A MODEL WORTH PINNING MY HOPES ON...TO NARROW
DOWN/WHEN WHERE MIGHT HAVE THE MORE SIGNIFICANT ISSUES OVERNIGHT.
FACT IS...ALTHOUGH THEY HAVEN'T PERFORMED WELL...THE OVERALL
SETUP & PATTERN BEARS WATCHING ACROSS ALL OF SE TX...ESP SE 2/3 OF
THE AREA.
LOOKING DOWN TOWARD CRP...INTERESTING TO NOTE THE WINDS/CONVECTION
OFFSHORE. POSSIBLE SFC LOW DEVELOPING. MAY SEE WINDS BACK AND
INCREASE OFF THE UPPER TX COAST OVERNIGHT IF SO. COULD SEE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY SWING BACK ONSHORE LATER AS THE LOW APPROACHES OUR
WESTERN COASTAL WATERS. WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON...AS SOME STRONG
CELLS AND RAINFALL MAY IMPACT SOUTHERN PARTS LATE SHOULD THIS
OCCUR.
FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL REMAIN UP AS WILL AS COASTAL FLOOD ADVSY
BASED ON ABOVE THINKING. AGAIN...FAIRLY LOW CONFIDENCE REGARDING
SPECIFIC DETAILS...BUT IT IS A FAVORABLE OVERALL PATTERN FOR
SOME PROBLEMS. 47
