Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
326 PM CDT Tue Jun 4 2019

.SHORT TERM (Tonight through Wednesday Night)...
What's left of the morning MCV is gradually weakening near Bexar
county. Nevertheless, scattered to numerous showers and embedded
thunderstorms will occur through the remainder over the afternoon as
what's left of the feature moves east through Bexar county, meeting
up with the leading edge of the influx of tropical moisture moving
through the coastal plains. Locally heavy downpours will be possible
from the San Antonio metro area south and eastward, which could lead
to some localized flooding concerns through sunset. We then expect a
reduction in coverage of showers and storms initially after sunset
across central and eastern areas of the CWA.

Models are in agreement with another complex of storms forming across
West Texas, the Big Bend, and northern Mexico. However there is some
disagreement with how far east this complex makes it. There is
enough support in some of the CAMs that it will at least make it to
Val Verde county later this evening and overnight. Given the heavy
rainfall that fell early this morning, any additional heavy rainfall
over the same areas will likely result in flash flooding. Therefore
we have elected to issue a Flash Flood Watch for tonight across Val
Verde, as well as Edwards and Kinney counties for buffer. In
addition, a few stronger to severe storms could be possible across
western Val Verde county, given forecast CAPE and DCAPE values, with
straight-line winds the primary threat.

Also overnight we expect an increase in coverage of tropical showers
and a few thunderstorms working through the northern Coastal Bend and
into southeastern portions of the CWA.

Satellite imagery this afternoon indicates that the broad area of
low pressure located over the southwestern Gulf of Mexico remains
disorganized. It appears the system is running out of time for
tropical cyclone development, and NHC has lowered the chances for
development to 20%. It also appears the bulk of the deepest tropical
moisture with the system will work into Southeast Texas tonight
through Thursday, however there is a window from late tonight through
the day on Wednesday where a deeper tap of 2-2.3" precipitable water
values do work into the eastern half of the CWA ahead of the upper
level trough.

Likely PoPs are indicated across the eastern Hill Country and I-35
tomorrow, with categorical PoPs and a mention of locally heavy
rainfall east of I-35 and I-37. Between 1-3" are currently forecast
where the categorical PoPs are shown. Lesser amounts are forecast for
the I-35 corridor and westward (with the exception of the far
western CWA and the complex of storms possible later tonight as
mentioned above). WPC's Day 2 Excessive Rainfall Outlook does keep
eastern areas of the CWA in a slight risk for excessive rainfall, and
this seems reasonable given the precipitable water values.

&&

.LONG TERM (Thursday through Tuesday)...
As the upper level trough and closed low advances east into West
Texas Wednesday night and Oklahoma on Thursday the deeper tropical
moisture tap gets shunted east of the CWA. Rain chances look to come
to and end by Friday.

An upper level ridge is then forecast to build over the region
Saturday and Sunday, leading to very warm temperatures. Model
guidance continues to trend warmer with temperatures during this
time. High temps Saturday and Sunday are forecast to be into the mid
and upper 90s across the Hill Country, upper 90s to around 100 along
the I-35 corridor, and 100-107 across the western and southwest CWA.
Forecast heat index values of 105-110 are forecast for many areas,
outside of the Hill Country, both days. A weak cold front is
indicated by both the GFS and ECMWF Monday into Tuesday of next week.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon And Tonight.

Scattered thunderstorms with heavy rainfall will impact some
locations near and south of a San Antonio to Schulenburg line
through the late afternoon and early evening. Pockets of heavy
rainfall will be possible, leading to localized flash flooding
concerns.

Additional thunderstorms are possible along the Rio Grande and
southern Edwards Plateau late tonight. These storms could move
over locations that received heavy rainfall this morning, leading
to additional flash flooding. A Flash Flood Watch has been issued
for tonight for Val Verde, Edwards, and Kinney counties.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

A tropical air-mass will continue to produce a threat of locally
heavy rainfall across much of the area through late Wednesday.
Isolated pockets of 1 to 2 inch rains will be possible along and
west of I-35, while scattered pockets of 1 to 3 inch amounts will
be possible over the Coastal Prairies east of I-35 and I-37.

Hot and humid conditions are expected over the area Friday through
Sunday. Heat indices are forecast to reach 105 to 110 degrees
across many areas Saturday and Sunday, with slightly lower values
expected over the Hill Country. A heat advisory may be needed.
