$$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 18, 9:06 AM CDT, 26 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 18, 9:06 AM CDT, 26 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 906 AM CDT Thu Oct 18 2018 .UPDATE... Area radars are currently showing light showers mainly across the southern counties of south central Texas. However, a line of light to isolated moderate showers just entered the southern parts of Karnes and Dewitt counties while moving to the northwest. So far, the rain rates are less than a one tenth of an inch. Based on current radar and satellite data, the moderate to localized heavy rainfall expected for this morning is been delayed for this afternoon and evening per latest HiRes models and guidance. Still expecting 1 to 2 inches with isolated 4 inches for the next 18 to 24 hours. Will keep you updated as new information comes in and the shower activity begins to impact the region. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 618 AM CDT Thu Oct 18 2018/ AVIATION... IFR/MVFR CIGs and intermittent SHRA with restrictions to VSBY can be expected at all TAF sites today through Friday morning. There is a potential for LIFR VSBYs in the heavier SHRA, however, due to uncertainty on timing will leave out for now and update based on radar trends. Northerly winds 6 to 14 KTs prevail. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 410 AM CDT Thu Oct 18 2018/ SHORT TERM (Today through Friday)... For today and into Friday a disturbance will rotate around the western side of the upper level high situated across the Gulf Coast interacting with very moist air to create more scattered light to moderate showers across the area. The best chance of any of these heavier showers will be later today, through the overnight hours into Friday morning. With additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches possible, with isolated totals up to 4 inches we have extended the Flash Flood Watch through Friday morning. Beyond Friday morning the watch may need to be reconfigured as the threat for heavier rain will shift from across the Rio Grande Plains to focus on the Texas Hill Country. This disturbance will drag in rich Gulf moisture and increase precipitable water values to 1.9-2.1 inches for late today through Friday (check out the Wednesday evening update AFD for a more in- depth explanation on PW). These values are well into the 90th percentile for this time of year and could translate into pockets of heavier rainfall. Soils, especially across the Edwards Plateau (from Real to Kerr counties) and Hill Country (from Gillespie to Llano to Burnet counties), are so saturated that even 1 to 2 inches of rain will cause increased runoff and could lead to additional river rises or flooded road ways. Over the last 3 days anywhere between 4 and 12 inches of rainfall have fallen on the Edwards Plateau and Hill Country so these areas remain the focus for the flash flood threat, but moderate to heavy rainfall could work into the I-35 corridor today and tonight as well leading to their inclusion in the watch. Afternoon highs will continue to run about 10 degrees below seasonal normals, with lows right around where they should be for mid October. With the saturated soils across parts of South Central Texas and the continued wet forecast this remains a dangerous situation as rainfall from the last few days continues to work its way through area rivers. The Lower Colorado River Authority announced that by mid-day Thursday up to 8 flood gates at Mansfield Dam could be opened (4 are currently releasing about 25,000 cfs down the Colorado) to move some of the water from Lake Travis down the Colorado. Lake Travis, as of 3am is at just over 700 feet msl, the 6th highest the lake has ever been (Visit the NWS AHPS page and search for MSDT2 to view the other past crests). The Devils River in Val Verde County, the Nueces River in Dimmit County, and the Frio River in Frio County all continue to be in flood this morning as well. We urge residents and visitors to South Central Texas to monitor closely the weather conditions for the next several days as any rainfall amounts could lead to additional flash flooding or river flooding. Also, those along the Colorado River should monitor information coming from the Lower Colorado River Authority concerning releases from area lakes and take needed actions to protect lives and property along the Colorado. LONG TERM (Friday Night through Wednesday)... The longterm forecast is a mixed bag of good news and bad news. The good news is that on Saturday a large trough will dig out of Canada across the eastern half of the U.S. and drag a cold front through Texas. While this will act as a focus for more rain during the day on Saturday the front should clear out precipitation for Saturday night through Sunday night, other than some isolated showers across the Rio Grande Plains. This should give a good 24 hours for water to work through area rivers, with no additional rainfall. The front will also help to knock down temperatures that will have rebounded to afternoon highs near 70 by Saturday (still below normal), back down into the lower 60s. A lucky few may see some peaks of sun on Sunday though mostly cloudy skies should prevail. Now the bad news...there is more rain in the forecast for the first half of next week. Both the ECMWF and GFS show the persistent upper level low pressure system that has been sitting across the Southwest U.S. finally ejected eastward across the Southern Plains. This in itself will provide a catalyst for another round of potentially heavy rainfall beginning on Monday and lasting through Wednesday night. What bares watching is the possibility than a Pacific tropical system gets pulled into the through as it traverses across Texas. This system has yet to form, but is shown in both the ECMWF and GFS and NHC currently has a 90% chance of formation along the southern Mexican coast. The GFS has the trough picking up the tropical system Wednesday into Thursday producing widespread heavy rainfall across much of Texas. The ECMWF is faster with the main trough pulling it through Texas as tropical system makes landfall. The difference here will be the amount of moisture the trough has to work with. With all of the Pacific moisture the GFS dumps 5-10 inches from San Angelo to Abilene, while the ECMWF with the miss-match of trough first, then tropical system shows only 2-4 inches. There are a lot of factors that will come into play next week from the timing of the trough moving eastward, to the location, strength, and timing of the yet-to- form Pacific Tropical System, and how much the area gets to dry out this weekend. How these come together will determine how much and where the rain falls during the first half of next week and what additional impacts will be felt across South Central Texas. Probably the *best* news is that both long-term global models show ridging trying to work into Texas behind the trough and a drier forecast beginning Thursday of next week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
