$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 25, 1:03 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 25, 1:03 PM CDT, 1 hour 39 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 103 PM CDT Fri Aug 25 2017 .UPDATE... See below for the 18z aviation update... && .AVIATION... The outer rain bands of Harvey are approaching the Interstate 35 TAF sites, and should reach AUS/SAT/SSF around 20z this afternoon. This will usher in SHRA, lowered CIGs to MVFR and around 15 knot sustained winds with gusts up to 25 knots out of the northeast. Periods of heavier rain will be possible within more intense regions of the rain bands. Coverage and intensity of rain should increase as we head into late Friday evening and into the early morning hours of Saturday as Harvey continues its northwestward progression, with wind speeds increasing to around 25 knots sustained with gusts up to 35-40 knots. CIGs are also expected to lower to IFR by around 10z Saturday morning. Significant rainfall accumulations are expected. At DRT, VFR conditions are expected to prevail for the entire forecast period. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1135 AM CDT Fri Aug 25 2017/ UPDATE... Harvey is slowly moving northwestward in the Gulf of Mexico, currently as a strong category 2 hurricane, and continuing to strengthen as it approaches the Texas coastline. This northwestward movement is expected to continue and Harvey should make landfall late tonight/Saturday morning. Confidence remains high in a major rainfall event taking place across much of South Central Texas, in addition to some locations closer to the coast experiencing hurricane force and tropical storm force winds. At this stage, a life-threatening and catastrophic heavy rainfall event appears imminent for much of South Central Texas east of Interstate 35 and Interstate 37. This could lead to significant flash flooding across these areas. Average storm total rainfall amounts of 10 to 20 inches are expected east of Interstate 35 and Interstate 37 today through Tuesday. Isolated higher amounts in excess of 25 inches are possible near and south of the Interstate 10 corridor. For the Interstate 35 corridor and the eastern Hill Country, including the cities of San Antonio and Austin 6 to 12 inches are forecast with isolated higher amounts. Harvey is expected to stall or move very slowly over the area. With these forecasted rainfall amounts catastrophic river flooding is also very likely east of Interstate 35 and south of Interstate 10 in the Colorado, Guadalupe, and San Antonio river basins. Additionally, hurricane force winds of 70 to 80 mph will be possible for the counties within the Hurricane Warning. 40 to 50 mph winds with some gusts to 60 mph, in the tropical rain bands, will be possible for areas within the Tropical Storm Warning including San Antonio and San Marcos. The Austin area could see winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to 40mph within rain bands. The timing of these winds look to arrive as early as Friday afternoon through Saturday morning. There is a low risk of brief tornadoes east of Interstate 35 and south of Interstate 10 Friday evening into the weekend associated with tropical rain bands. ..Happening now and future forecast through this evening... Current radar images show rain bands already affecting the middle to northern part of Texas coast. These rain bands are expected to produce heavy rain across the coastal plains and southeast counties this afternoon before tropical storm force winds arrive late this afternoon or early evening to the middle Texas coast. These rain bands could produce isolated and quick tornadoes as they move inland across the southeast part of South Central Texas. Weather conditions will deteriorate late tonight into Saturday as Harvey makes landfall. A long period of Heavy rain is expected across South Central Texas late tonight through early next week. This is a a life-threatening and catastrophic heavy rainfall event, especially for areas east of Interstate 35 and Interstate 37. Please see our key messaging points for this event: 1) A life-threatening and catastrophic heavy rainfall event is expected east of I-35 and I-37. 2) Average rainfall amounts of 10-20 inches are expected east of I-35 and I-37 Today through Tuesday. 3) Isolated higher totals in excess of 25 inches are possible near and south of the I-10 corridor. 4) Along the I-35 corridor and across the eastern Hill Country, including the City of San Antonio and Austin, 6-12 inches with isolated higher totals are possible. Additional important notes: a) Small shifts in the forecast track of Harvey and where it stalls this weekend could result in very large differences in rainfall totals. b) Catastrophic mainstem river flooding lasting many days is possible east of I-35 and I-37 in the Colorado, Guadalupe, and San Antonio river basins. c) Tropical Storm Force winds arriving as early as of this afternoon in rain bands. d) 70-80 mph winds are expected for counties in the Hurricane Warning. f) Large trees could be snapped, power lines downed, and damage to homes could occur. Power and communication outages are likely. e) 40-50 mph winds are expected within the area now under a Tropical Storm Warning with gusts to 60 mph in rain bands. This includes San Antonio to San Marcos areas. Damage to trees and power lines are possible, leading to scattered power outages. g) For Austin 20-30 mph with gusts in excess of 40 mph in rain bands. h) There is a marginal risk for tornadoes east of a I-35 and I-37 this afternoon through Saturday. These small tornadoes are typically very fast moving and short-lived. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
