KDRT is expected to be impacted by thunderstorm activity this evening into the overnight hours with storms moving across or nearby the terminal for the period. These storms are capable of producing frequent cloud to ground lightning and wind gusts of 20 to 25 knots. There may be a break around 07Z Through 09Z with most of the activity to the east of the airport and VFR cigs could occur for a short period before going back down to MVFR through mid afternoon on Monday. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 247 PM CDT Sun Oct 7 2018/ SHORT TERM (Today through tonight)... The current weather pattern is characterized by a large, high amplitude trough across the western CONUS with the center of the upper low currently situated over northern Arizona/southern Utah and slowly progressing eastward. This has yielded southwest flow aloft across south central Texas, which is bringing a steady stream of Pacific moisture across Mexico and into the region, primarily focused out west along the Rio Grande (which can be seen via GOES-16 water vapor imagery). PWATs, as analyzed by the SPC mesoanalysis, are up to 1.7" in this area, which registers above the 90% percentile per climatology. A few subtle perturbations embedded within the upper level flow as well as weak forcing due to some weak positive vorticity advection from the approaching trough, paired with this area of ample moisture, will create the threat for heavy rainfall this evening and overnight tonight across the Rio Grande and southern Edwards Plateau. The SPC HREF shows a strong signal for heavy rainfall, and single deterministic CAMs such as the HRRR and the NAM nest also continue to suggest a locally heavy rainfall threat for this region. As such, WPC does indeed highlight this area with a slight risk for excessive rainfall. Thus, a Flash Flood Watch has been issued for this region and will be in effect from 7 pm tonight through 7 am Monday. While the focus for heavy rainfall should remain confined to the western portions of the region, the rest of south central Texas should see isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms overnight tonight, with overnight lows ranging from the low to mid 70s. LONG TERM (Tuesday through Sunday)... Scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms are expected to continue through Wednesday morning as the region remains under the influence of the approaching trough and eventual surface cold front. Locally heavy rainfall will be possible, and even some strong to marginally severe storms are also possible. The trough axis and cold front should move through the region on Wednesday, bringing rain chances to an end as weak upper level ridging begins to build. Highs will be in the upper 70s to low 80s for Thursday through Saturday with lows in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Highs on Sunday are only expected to reach the low to mid 70s across the region. The remnants of Hurricane Sergio (in the Pacific) will come ashore across Baja California and is progged to be absorbed into an upper level trough in the vicinity of the desert southwest. This feature may approach the region as we head into next weekend, so have re- introduced some 20 to 30 percent PoPs for Saturday and Sunday. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
