Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
643 AM CDT Sun Apr 2 2017

.UPDATE...

#108, which is in effect for the Hill Country and portions of the
I-35 corridor until 1 PM today.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 541 AM CDT Sun Apr 2 2017/

SHORT TERM (Today through Monday)...
A busy weather pattern is already underway and will continue into the
afternoon hours today. Currently, an upper level low pressure system
centered over north central Mexico can be seen on water vapor
imagery. To the east of this feature, convection continues to develop
over the Rio Grande plains and southern Edwards Plateau. Convection
is also being enhanced by a surface low just south of Del Rio and
cold front edging into the western Hill Country.

Severe weather concerns for today include damaging winds, large hail
and tornadoes, especially across the Hill Country and I-35 corridor.
We currently have an ongoing area of severe storms across portions of
the southern Edwards plateau, Rio Grande plains and western Hill
Country. With continued warm/moist advection in the low-levels along
with increasing lift in the mid and upper levels, the active weather
will spread eastward today. In addition, we are already seeing some
surface-based development in the warm sector and expect this trend to
continue with additional daytime heating. Based on the above, we
should see a gradual increase in the severe weather threat across
south central Texas today. In addition, concerns are also increasing
for heavy rainfall across the Hill Country and portions of the I-35
corridor. We have already seen some impressive totals at Del Rio
(almost 5") today and given impressive moist air advection in the
low-levels and a very efficient rainfall setup, we have issued a
Flash Flood Watch for portions of the Rio Grande plains, southern
Edwards Plateau, Hill Country and I-35 corridor today.

We should see a decrease in the active weather from west to east by
late afternoon. Still, can't rule out some showers and storms across
the Hill Country and I-35 corridor north of San Antonio as the center
of the upper low passes across the mentioned areas.

LONG TERM (Monday Night through Saturday)...
The weather pattern for the upcoming work week will be much calmer as
southwest to westerly flow aloft prevails. Above normal high
temperatures are in store on Tuesday, followed by a weak cold front
dropping temperatures down closer to normal on Wednesday and
Thursday. A warming trend takes shape for the latter portion of the
forecast period.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for South-Central Texas..

.DAY ONE...Today And Tonight.

An active weather pattern is expected across all of south central
Today. Initially, the most active weather will be across the
southern Edwards Plateau as a line of storms begins to organize.
As this line of storms strengthens and moves east across the Hill
Country and I-35 corridor through midday, a combination of large
hail, damaging winds and locally heavy rainfall can be expected.
In addition, an isolated tornado can not be ruled out. As this
line of storms approaches the I-35 corridor Sunday morning, the
threat for tornadoes will increase. In addition, rainfall amounts
of 1 to 3 inches could bring the potential for localized flooding,
especially across those areas that had heavy rains earlier in the
week.

By early Sunday evening, the severe weather concerns should be on
the decrease as the line of storms moves east of the region.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.

No hazardous weather is expected at this time.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters are urged to report severe weather and flooding with the
storm system this weekend.
