.AVIATION...
/00Z TAFS/

The main aviation forecast concern is with thunderstorms this
evening and early tonight. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
across the Big Country and Concho Valley areas will continue
to move/develop to the south-southeast through this evening and
into early tonight. Most of the convection should dissipate by or
shortly after Midnight. The main efects should be at the KABI,
KSJT and KBBD terminals. Temporary reductions in ceilings and
visibilities are expected in locally heavy rain accompanying the
convection, and localized wind gusts over 35 knots are possible.
Following dissipation of the showers/thunderstorms, gradually
clearing skies and VFR conditions are expected overnight into
Sunday. A few showers and thunderstorms will be possible by
Sunday afternoon along/south of a San Angelo to Brownwood line,
but low confidence in placement precludes a mention in our TAFs
at this time. Outside of convective activity, wind speeds will
be mostly less than 10 knots.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 324 PM CDT Sat Sep 2 2017/

SHORT TERM...
(Tonight and Sunday)

Scattered showers and storms developing across the Big Country as
expected this afternoon, as a potent shortwave dives south across
the South Plains. High resolution models like the TTU WRF and the
HRRR allow this convection to blossom and sag south this evening
into the Concho Valley and Heartland as well. Increased rain chances
for this evening across much of the area. Upper level support fades
across the area for Sunday, but afternoon heating and adequate low
level moisture will remain. Will keep the isolated storms in the
forecast for Sunday, roughly along and south of a Brownwood to San
Angelo line. As for temperatures, temperatures have returned to
seasonal normals after a few days of relatively cool readings.

07

LONG TERM...
(Sunday night through Monday)

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible
Sunday evening, mainly for areas south of Interstate 20. Overnight
lows will be close to seasonal normals, in the mid to upper 60s.
Highs on Monday will remain near normal, in the low to mid 90s, with
south winds of 5 to 10 mph.

A large upper level trough is forecast to swing across the northern
Plains late Monday, then toward the Great Lakes Tuesday. This will
send a cold front into the northern Big Country Tuesday afternoon,
then through the rest of the area Tuesday evening. Isolated to
scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible along and just
behind the front, with rain chances decreasing from north to south
late Tuesday into early Wednesday. Cooler temperatures are
anticipated behind the front along with gusty north winds. Highs
Wednesday and Thursday will mainly be in the 80s, with overnight
lows in the mid 50s to near 60 degrees. A slow warm up is then
forecast for the end of the week.
