Area forecast discussion, Mar 26, 3:46 PM CDT, 26 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service San Angelo TX 346 PM CDT Mon Mar 26 2018 .Discussion... ...Severe Thunderstorms Possible This Afternoon and Tonight... Severe Thunderstorm Watch 19 continues in effect for all of the Big Country area along/north of I-20, until 9 PM CDT. A new Severe Thunderstorm Watch (#20) is in effect for much of the Concho Valley, along with Schleicher and Crockett Counties, until 2 AM CDT Tuesday. Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are occurring at mid-afternoon across the northern and western Big Country, ahead of a dryline. The dryline extends from Fisher County southwest to near Fort Stockton. Other thunderstorm development is expected farther south along the dryline late this afternoon. Thunderstorm coverage is expected to increase across our northern and western counties this evening and early tonight, with the convective activity overspreading much of the rest of west-central Texas during the night. Moderate instability combined with favorable vertical shear will support a large hail threat for large hail and damaging winds across our area northwest of a Brownwood to Sonora line. Very large hail (larger than golfball size) is a threat across the Big Country area. With precipitable water values of 1 to 1.5 inches (much above normal for late March) and the possibility of training convection, will have a possibility of localized flooding from heavy rainfall. On Tuesday and Tuesday night, additional development of showers and thunderstorms is expected. Some strong to severe storms will be possible, with the main threat southeast of a Brownwood to Sonora line. A cold front will move south into the Big Country Tuesday evening, and make slow progress into our central counties Tuesday night. A cooling trend in temperatures is expected Tuesday through Wednesday. An upper level low will develop over Arizona tonight, and then track slowly east across southern New Mexico Tuesday night. This system is progged to open into a trough move east into West Texas on Wednesday. Chances for showers and thunderstorms will continue across our area on Wednesday, with rain chances shutting off as the trough axis shifts east across our area. Dry conditions are expected Thursday into the weekend. A weak cold front progged to enter our northern counties Thursday afternoon, with a stronger cold frontal passage for our forecast area Saturday afternoon and night. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
