Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
844 PM CDT Thu Oct 24 2019

.UPDATE...
The front has moved across I-35 and stretches from near Taylor to
San Antonio to Eagle Pass. Storms along the front continue to be
strong with locally heavy rain. The heaviest rain thus far has been
in the South Austin and Buda area. The front will continue to push to
the southeast taking the storms to the Coastal Plains. Some storms
could be strong with gusty winds and produce locally heavy rain.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 629 PM CDT Thu Oct 24 2019/

AVIATION...
A strong cold front is currently progressing across the area and has
already passed over KDRT. Scattered to widespread thunderstorms are
ongoing ahead and along the front with both the AUS and SAT under an
Airport Weather Warning for lighting within 5 miles. Winds will be
gusty behind the front gusting up to 35 kts from the north. The front
will approach the I-35 terminals within the next couple of hours.
Showers and thunderstorms will continue along and slightly behind the
front, before clearing all terminals early tomorrow morning.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 310 PM CDT Thu Oct 24 2019/

SHORT TERM (Tonight through Friday Night)...
At 3PM the cold front was just south of a Brady to Sonora line with
the dry line pushing into far northwest Val Verde County. As
mentioned in the morning update, the 12Z HREF guidance has converged
nicely on the timing of the front and convective evolution across the
area.

Capping has almost completely eroded and SPC mesoanalysis reveals
MLCAPE of around 1500-2000 J/kg developing through portions of the
southern Edwards Plataea and northwest Hill Country. We expect
additional shower and storm development through the late afternoon
across this region as forcing from the front arrives and overtakes
the dryline. Initially some storms could produce small to marginally
severe hail in addition to stronger downdrafts producing gusty winds.
Guidance is in agreement with a line of storms evolving this evening
into the remainder of the Hill Country and I-35 corridor trailing
all the way back to the Rio Grande. There still could be a window for
strong to marginally severe storms up through the I-35 corridor,
before updrafts begin to get undercut by the cold pool.

However, the main threat as the storms develop into portions of the
southeast Hill Country and urban areas of the I-35 corridor will be
heavy rainfall. Rainfall rates could lead to localized areas of flash
flooding concerns. A widespread 1-2 inches of rainfall is indicated
across this region. However, convective allowing and global models
have been consistent with indicating pockets of 3-4 inches. Where
these pockets occur is difficult to pinpoint, but will likely be the
locations for the potential for flooding.

Hi resolution and global models have trended more progressive with
the rain ending west to east early Friday morning, and so has our
forecast, as dry slotting around the base of the mid and upper level
low occurs across South Central Texas.

A Wind Advisory has been issued for post frontal winds. Initially a
strong surge of wind is forecast to develop down the Rio Grande and
portions of the I-35 corridor behind the front this evening, then a
little more widespread mid morning through early afternoon on Friday.
Sustained winds of 20-30 mph are expected, with some locations
seeing gusts around 35-40 mph.

Much cooler on Friday with high temperatures tricky. The NAM12
is colder and slower clearing out the cloud cover versus the global
models. Generally mid an upper 50s are forecast through the Hill
Country and Central Texas with low to mid 60s elsewhere, however the
gusty north winds will make it feel cooler.

Winds gradually subside late in the day on Friday, with lows by
Saturday morning into the 40s for most locations, and even upper 30s
across portions of the Hill Country.

LONG TERM (Saturday through Thursday)...
Another upper level trough is forecast to develop across the western
CONUS on Sunday and move east through the southern Rockies and into
the Plains on Monday. A warming trend is expected across the area
over the weekend. This some disagreement still in the models on
whether a weak, dry frontal boundary will make it into the area on
Monday, with the GFS indicating a passage but the 12Z ECMWF not
indicating the weak front until Tuesday. Global models do agree on a
stronger front for Wednesday, however the GFS is dry while the ECMWF
and Canadian develop precip along and behind.
