Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Brownsville TX
248 PM CDT Sun Jun 4 2017

.SHORT TERM (Now through Monday Night): Modest CAPE in a
unidirectional wind profile along with above average low level
moisture and mid level energy will support scattered showers and
thunderstorms through this evening. Radar shows a slow, westward
moving sea breeze close to the coast. Strong wind gusts and
possibly some small hail will be the main threat in any late
afternoon thunderstorm development. SPC rates the threat of severe
storms as marginal, or very isolated. While conditions over the
CWA will improve later this evening with the loss of diurnal
heating, instability will still be around due to the proximity of
a mid level low over East Texas, and the associated spokes of
vorticity moving around it. The GFS suggests that one of those
spokes will swing across the northeast section of the CWA early
Monday morning, with increased shower and thunderstorm coverage
there and over the northern portion of the adjacent marine zones.
As the upper low moves farther east along the upper Gulf coast on
Monday, drier air, particularly above the boundary layer, will be
pulled in from the north, with rain chances tapering off Monday
night from west to east. While overnight low temperatures in the
mid 70s will be close to normal, daytime high temperatures will
continue to run above normal, ranging from the mid 90s near the
coast to near the century mark inland.

.LONG TERM (Tuesday through Sunday): The beginning of the long
term period starts with the departure of the 500mb trough/closed
low off the Texas coast on Tuesday. Despite strong northwest flow
aloft, moisture columns still reach above 700mb with another weak
vort max rotating around the trough Tuesday morning. Have decided
to keep slight rain chances in for the eastern half of the area
on Tuesday before the main push of dry air moves into Deep South
Texas.

For the middle of the week, a surface low will develop over the
northern Gulf coast with the main northern stream low well off
the coast of the Mid-Atlantic. The Weather Prediction Center has
a weak trailing cold front moving through South Texas late
Wednesday. The only impacts will be continued northerly flow and
a slight decrease in dew points. Through the end of the week,
ridging moves eastward into the desert southwest and flow becomes
mainly zonal as it approaches the Southern Plains. Rain chances
will be very low as moisture is very limited with little synoptic
support. Temperatures, however, will increase as we move into the
weekend with the return of southeast flow and increasing
1000-500mb thicknesses.

&&

.MARINE: (Now through Monday night): Light to moderate winds and
low to moderate seas. The pressure gradient across the northwest
Gulf will remain unimpressive. A weak surface low in the southwest
Gulf will complicate the wind pattern, resulting in periodic
variability or disruption of the larger scale southeast flow. A
mid level trough will advance over East Texas and over the
Northwest Gulf, supporting scattered moderate to strong showers
and thunderstorms tonight and Monday.

(Tuesday through Sunday): Marine conditions will be favorable
through much of the long term period as winds will be light to
moderate and variable from northeast to southeast. Seas will be 2
to 3 feet through much of the week before southeast winds
increase and seas build late this weekend as low pressure deepens
in the Central Plains.
