$$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 Oct 8, 6:32 AM CDT, 53 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 8, 6:32 AM CDT, 53 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 632 AM CDT Mon Oct 8 2018 .AVIATION.../12Z TAFS/ Mix of IFR/MVFR cigs again this morning. Should see high end IFR through 15Z-16Z then lifting to MVFR and finally VFR. KDRT currently back to VFR and should remain there. Will likely see a repeat after 05Z tonight with IFR/MVFR cigs developing after 05Z. Main concern for remainder of the forecast period will be convection. Currently seeing showers across the east and showers and thunderstorms out west. Should see convection increase across the east by late morning and continuing into the evening. May see a decrease in convection across the west later this morning before more develops this afternoon and into tonight. Have VCSH/VCTS throughout the forecast period due to timing and location uncertainties of the convection. Winds will be SE at 10-15 knots with occasional gusts to around 20 knots after 16Z. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 328 AM CDT Mon Oct 8 2018/ SHORT TERM (Today through Tuesday)... Upper air analysis last evening showed a deep trough over the southwestern US with southwesterly flow over Texas. The trough axis extended from northern Arizona to the central Baja Peninsula. Surface winds across most of Texas continue to be from the southeast and the airmass remains unchanged from the past 24 hours. PW from the 00Z DRT sounding was 1.87". A shortwave trough will move over South Central Texas today bringing another round of convection. The best chances today will be over the western half of the area. Locally heavy rain is possible again today and we will extend the Flash Flood Watch through Tuesday morning for the area from Kerr to Maverick Counties and westward. An additional 2-4 inches of rain with isolated amounts to 8" are possible. This will be particularly problematic over Edwards and Real Counties where there was significant rain today. This will also be a problem with the rivers in that area where there have been some significant rises Sunday night. In addition to the heavy rain threat there is also a chance that some thunderstorms this afternoon could be severe across this western area. Large hail and damaging wind gusts are the most likely threat, but tornadoes are also possible. The pattern will be slowly progressive through this period and we will see high POPs through Tuesday. The highest will be across the northern part of the area. Convection Tuesday will be aided by a surface front that will move down through Central Texas. There will continue to be a threat for heavy rain and severe storms. LONG TERM (Tuesday Night through Sunday)... Tuesday night the upper level trough axis will swing across Texas and up into the central plains. Showers and thunderstorms will continue particularly across the eastern half of the area. The surface front will drop down from central Texas and move through our CWA Wednesday. Some drier air will move in behind the front bringing an end to rain chances. The front will stall over eastern Mexico and there will be a chance for showers and thunderstorms developing along the boundary and moving into our western counties Friday night and Saturday. Sunday another upper level trough will swing into West Texas and bring another cold front into our CWA with another chance for thunderstorms. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
