Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX
449 AM CDT Wed Jun 20 2018

.DISCUSSION...

Will make this short as possible. Another round of heavy rainfall
expected today, with the main activity in the morning and
gradually moving inland during the day. Average rainfall amounts
through tonight (not including rainfall before 12Z today) will be
1 to 3 inches over the previous FFA area, so extended it through
tonight as any additional rainfall will likely cause flooding.
Drier air will gradually begin to filter in Thursday and even more
on Friday, generally from the north as an upper level ridge
finally tries to come back into the area. Based on WPC's Day 2
excessive rainfall outlook, will only go with the FFA through
tonight as any flooding on Thursday likely to be more isolated and
farther south. A later shift could decide on whether it is needed
to extend for Thursday, and that will mainly be based on NWS
forecast QPF for Thursday. Plenty of clouds and wet grounds should
help to keep temperatures down today, with similar temperatures
for lows tonight. For Thursday, there may be more sunshine, but
wet grounds will help keep temperatures down again except out to
the west where much less rainfall has been observed. Drier air
Friday and Saturday with upper ridge is expected to come in, but
rain begins to return by early next week as there is a hint of
another upper level low approaching the area. For temperatures,
generally went with a blend of short-range consensus and
Supreblend for high temperatures today and Thursday, with close to
Superblend and Bias-consensus guidance for lows through Friday
morning. After that, went with Superblend for highs (but did trim
temperatures a degree or two east of Highway 281 due to the
saturated soils), with a blend of Superblend and WPCGuide for
minimum temperatures.

&&

.MARINE...

Based on forecast wave heights, will maintain the SCA for the
offshore waters, with SCEC for the nearshore waters. SCA until 3
PM based on wave heights, with SE winds 15 to 20 knots. Conditions
should gradually improve, but still will have scattered to
numerous (if not widespread) convection today and tonight,
beginning (hopefully) to diminish in areal coverage and strength
Thursday through the rest of the week. Near SCA conditions at
times over the waters, as low pressure over West Texas deepens and
high pressure remains in the eastern Gulf of Mexico.

&&

.COASTAL FLOODING...

Astronomical tide levels have come down over the last couple of
days, but levels are running one foot or more above predicted
levels at last look. Given the fact that there is still more
rainfall to come and some areas have received 5 to 10 inches of
rain, will keep the Coastal Flood Advisory going as there is
likely a lot of standing water and once high tide is approached
it could get close again (feeling is that it may not be would
rather be safe than sorry). Also, a borderline rip current risk
between moderate and high. Will again err on the side of caution
and extend both of these hazards through this evening. Additional
heavy rainfall would strand motorists away from beach access roads
so at this time do not want people to believe conditions are
improving.
