Area forecast discussion, May 13, 6:31 PM CDT, 4 hours 1 minute before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service SAN ANGELO TX 631 PM CDT FRI MAY 13 2016 .AVIATION... /00Z TAFS/ Scattered thunderstorms continue to develop along a surface boundary from KJCT to KSOA and should continue for a few more hours. Showers and/or thunderstorms were carried for these sites through 02z with benign wx included during the overnight hours. A complex of thunderstorms will move south across the Big Country late tonight, but confidence is relatively low at all forecast terminals outside of KABI, where VCTS was included for a few hours around 12z. A cold front will move south into the CWA early Saturday, shifting winds from the northeast at 10-15 kts and resulting in low clouds across the area. Low clouds were maintained all day at KABI and KBBD, with VFR conditions included at the remaining sites by midday. Additional convection will be possible in the vicinity of this cold front tomorrow. Rain chances favor the southern terminals, where a VCSH was included. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 357 PM CDT FRI MAY 13 2016/ SHORT TERM... (Tonight and Saturday) Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible this afternoon across mainly the southern half of West Central Texas. Most of this convection is expected to dissipate shortly after sunset. A cold front is forecast to approach the northern Big Country after midnight, with showers and thunderstorms developing along and ahead of the front. A complex of thunderstorms may develop late this evening, somewhere across the the Panhandle or the South Plains, then move south during the early morning hours. A few of these storms may become strong to severe, with large hail and damaging winds being the main concerns. Locally heavy rainfall will also be possible, which could exacerbate any flooding from rainfall earlier in the week. Overnight low temperatures will be in the low to mid 60s. On Saturday, a cold front will be across the Big Country and slowly move south, approaching the Interstate 10 corridor by mid to late afternoon. Additional shower and thunderstorm development is expected by early afternoon along and just behind the front. Again, a few strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible, with large hail and damaging winds being the main hazards. Locally heavy rainfall will also be possible. High temperatures will range from the upper 60s to near 70 across the Big Country to the low to mid 80s across the Interstate 10 corridor. LONG TERM... (Saturday night through Friday) Unsettled weather will continue across West Central Texas through much of the extended period. A stalled frontal boundary will bisect the forecast area on Sunday and will be a focus for convective development once again, aided by some weak disturbances moving across the area into Sunday night. The best instability and shear for Sunday afternoon and evening will be across the Edwards Plateau south of the stalled front and this is where the best potential for a few organized severe storms is expected. The main threats will be large hail and damaging winds. Convection should remain elevated north of the front but still could see a few strong to marginally severe storms capable of producing some hail. Southwest flow aloft will prevail across the Southern Plains Monday through the middle of next week, ahead of a digging upper level trough across the Intermountain West and southwest states. This will result in periodic disturbances moving across the area through the period. This combined with another front moving into the area on Tuesday, will result in additional shower and thunderstorm development through Wednesday. The medium range models show the upper trough moving east from the Southern Rockies and into the Southern Plains Wednesday night into Thursday, which will keep rain chances in the forecast through early Friday. The potential exists for some severe storms across the area next week but at this time it is still too premature to determine the extent and potential threats at this time. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
