TEWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Corpus Christi, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 4, 4:18 PM CDT, 1 hour 46 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 4, 4:18 PM CDT, 1 hour 46 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 418 PM CDT Sun Jun 4 2017 .SHORT TERM (Tonight through Monday Night)... You get a boundary, everyone gets a boundary. Boundaries galore across the region as storms develop along them from the northeast zones, to offshore and in between. Basically we are targeting the eastern half of the CWA/MSA for tonight where the best moisture axis and continued outflow boundary influences will remain. A majority of the convection is sub-severe and expected to remain that way since there is very little in the way of shear for more organization and better updraft/downdraft separation. Some small hail, heavier rain, and gusts to 50 mph are possible but being pulse convection, they won't last long. Another vort max pushes into the region from the northwest as the mid-level low/trough moves by to our north. Again we favor the eastern half of the region as PWATs continue to climb towards 2.0", well above average, with boundaries hanging around. Activity should begin to wane by late evening tomorrow with most activity over the open gulf waters. && .LONG TERM (Tuesday through Saturday)... Rain chances will be winding down as the extended period opens as a longwave pattern change gets underway. Just a small chance for leftover showers on Tuesday as an upper trough clears the area, then drier air begins to push into the region. One more weak disturbance moves through on Wednesday, but by then we should be too dry for rain. After that ridging builds into South Texas, bringing dry weather and gradually warming temperatures the rest of the week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
