Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
937 PM CDT Sun Jun 3 2018

.UPDATE...
Complex of storms to the east of the CWA continues to crank west.
Cloud tops still remain near -80C in places with no signs of warming.
Latest mesoanalysis shows little CIN for the next couple of hours and
therefore expect it to continue west aided by cold pool interactions.
The bulk of the convection can be seen building near the stalled
boundary near College Station. In addition, this axis along the
boundary is where the best CAPE/little CIN is located and have thus
raised PoPs in this area in the northeastern CWA to 40 percent. The
HRRR does weaken the complex after 3 hours as CIN increases but if
this does not happen PoPs would have to be increased a bit higher.
Large amounts of CAPE would support the threat of a strong storm with
gusty winds, but would bet storms would be in a somewhat weakened
state before arriving to the CWA. The focus then turns west and our
northern CWA could get clipped by this system after 2 AM and will
keep 30-40 PoPs for the northern Edwards Plateau and Hill Country for
this.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 627 PM CDT Sun Jun 3 2018/

AVIATION DISCUSSION...FOR 00Z TAF PERIOD...
Isolated TSRA has developed on the Plateau and Hill Country but
should stay clear of all terminals this evening. Another complex in
West Texas is expected to develop late tonight and push east towards
South Central Texas, but should also avoid terminals.

Thus, VFR is expected to prevail throughout the next 24 hours.
However, some periodic cloud cover at 600 and 1200 ft may be possible
around 12Z for the I-35 sites. Amendments may be needed around this
time if coverage becomes more extensive than anticipated.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 516 PM CDT Sun Jun 3 2018/

UPDATE...
Made some updates to reorient PoPs for the remainder of the afternoon
and in the tonight period. Cu field is non-existent along Highway 90
and have removed the mention of PoPs for most of this region and
this includes San Antonio. Also lowered PoPs by 10 percent for areas
near and east of Austin as cu field there is not too good looking for
now. The best area of surface convergence remains in the northern
Hill Country and Edwards Plateau where storms have initiated and
increased PoPs a bit there. MLCAPE values around 2,500 J/kg will
support the threat of localized severe updrafts within multicellular
clusters given the lack of deep layer shear.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 248 PM CDT Sun Jun 3 2018/

SHORT TERM (Tonight through Monday Night)...
A cold front was stretched across the northern part of our CWA. This
front is beginning to stall and will move slowly to the south
tonight. We expect this front to produce some showers and
thunderstorms as it moves through mainly across the northern half of
the area. The airmass the front is moving into is very warm and moist
and instability will be high. SPC has included our CWA in the
marginal outlook for tonight and storms could be strong to severe
with the high instability. The most likely threat from severe storms
tonight will be strong winds. Monday an upper level shortwave trough
will move across North Texas/Oklahoma and there will be low chances
for showers and thunderstorms across the eastern part of the area.

LONG TERM (Tuesday through Sunday)...
Tuesday the subtropical ridge will build back over the region
suppressing any convection. The ridge will dominate over South Texas
through the end of the period with no rain chances during this
period. Temperatures will continue to be above normal through the
week with highs in the middle 90s to near 105. A slight shift in the
low level flow may bring temperatures down a couple of degrees for
the weekend.
