Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Brownsville TX
102 AM CDT Sun Jul 26 2020

.DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.

&&

.AVIATION...Hazardous aviation conditions continue over the next
several hours as Hurricane Hanna continues to move inland. KHRL
went down earlier this evening due to a power hit, so have been
relying on radar and nearby observations to extrapolate conditions
at KHRL. Heavy rain will bring visibilities down periodically and
lead to slick runways at times. Winds will continue to shift out
of the south and then southeast later on Sunday as Hanna moves to
the southwest. Gusts have been gusting to 50 knots at KMFE and
near KHRL over the last hour or two and these gusts should
continue through the night. Kept LLWS for all the the TAF sites
through most of Sunday morning. Overall conditions will improve
east to west by midday tomorrow, with rain gradually diminishing
in the afternoon, becoming more showery and winds decreasing.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 642 PM CDT Sat Jul 25 2020/

..00z Aviation Update...

DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.

AVIATION...Flying conditions continue to be very adverse across
Deep South Texas as Hurricane Hanna makes landfall across coastal
Kenedy County. Latest surface observations across the region show
generally MVFR ceilings in place, with a few VFR observations.
The main concern, other than the various flight rules, are the
very gusty winds occurring at the surface and just above the
surface. Gusts have generally been around 40-50 knots at MFE, HRL,
and BRO over the past few hours. Kept LLWS for all the the TAF
sites through most of Sunday morning. As Hanna continues to move
inland and moves more southwest, winds will turn more southerly to
southeasterly and increase further overnight tonight, especially
at HRL and MFE. Went ahead and removed TS out of all of the TAFs
with this update. There may be a few rumbles of thunder over the
next 24 hours, but Hanna is not producing much lightning right.
Will update the forecast if this changes. Overall conditions will
improve east to west by midday tomorrow, with rain gradually
diminishing in the afternoon, becoming more showery and winds
decreasing.

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 502 PM CDT Sat Jul 25 2020/

.HURRICANE HANNA MAKING LANDFALL...

SHORT TERM (Tonight through Sunday Night): Hurricane Hanna is in
the process of transitioning from the western Gulf of Mexico to
the inland areas of Deep South Texas and the Rio Grand Valley, and
a plethora of Watches, Warnings, and Advisories (Hurricane
Warning, Tropical Storm Warning, Storm Surge Warning, Flash Flood
Watch, Coastal Flood Advisory, High Surf Advisory) are in effect
within the BRO CWFA. Conditions will deteriorate from now through
the overnight hours as Hanna treks west-southwest across the
region. Although Hanna is forecast to be just across the Rio
Grande River in Mexico around sunrise Sunday, additional showers
and thunderstorms moving inland on Sunday through Sunday night
could exacerbate any flooding that develops tonight within Deep
South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley.

LONG TERM (Monday through Saturday): A general elongated 500 mb
trough axis will remain in place across Deep South TX and the RGV
from Mon through Wed. This will combine with leftover tropical
moisture from the remnants of Hanna to maintain the conv chcs
during the first half of next week. The 500 mb ridging will start
rebuilding over the TX Coastline and the RGV during the latter
half of the week allowing for hotter temps and lower conv chcs.
The GFS wants to hold on to the pops a bit longer versus the ECMWF
which shuts down the pops pretty quickly after Wed.

MARINE (Now through Sunday Night): Buoy 42020 reported southeast
winds around 52 knots gusting to around 70 knots with seas of 21
feet with a period of 9 seconds at 1450 CDT/1950 UTC. Dangerous
marine conditions are expected tonight through Sunday as Hurricane
Hanna transitions from the open waters of the Lower Texas Coast to
the inland areas of Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley.
Although winds and seas will improve markedly for Sunday night, a
Small Craft Advisory may still be needed for the Laguna Madre and
Gulf of Mexico waters from 0 to 60 nautical miles offshore due to
remaining strong winds and rough seas.

Monday through Thursday: Surface ridging over the Gulf of Mex will
maintain a general light to moderate onshore flow pattern along
the lower TX coastline next week. Some of the Gulf swells may
experience SCA swells into Mon with conditions improving
afterwards. Some SCEC swells may linger across the Gulf waters
through Thursday.
