What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Brownsville, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jul 26, 4:26 AM CDT, 1 hour 22 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 26, 4:26 AM CDT, 1 hour 22 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Brownsville TX
426 AM CDT Sun Jul 26 2020

...TROPICAL STORM HANNA MOVING FURTHER INLAND...

.SHORT TERM (Today through Monday): Overnight, Hanna transitioned
into a Tropical Storm as it slightly weakened in the process of
moving further inland into areas of Deep South Texas and the Rio
Grand Valley. A plethora of Watches, Warnings, and Advisories
(Tropical Storm Warning, Flash Flood Watch, Coastal Flood
Advisory, High Surf Advisory) are in effect within the BRO County
Warning Forecast Area (CWFA). Hazardous conditions will continue
through the overnight hours and into Sunday morning as Hanna
continues to trek west-southwest across the region. Although
Hanna is forecast to be just across the Rio Grande River in Mexico
around sunrise today, additional showers and thunderstorms moving
inland throughout the day and into tonight will likely exacerbate
the flooding experienced already tonight within Deep South Texas
and the Rio Grande Valley. By Monday, showers will likely continue
as deep tropical moisture from Hanna lingers across the area.

.LONG TERM (Monday Night through Saturday): A general elongated
500 mb trough axis will remain in place across Deep South TX and
the RGV from Monday through Wednesday. This will combine with
leftover tropical moisture from the remnants of Hanna to maintain
the convective chances during the first half of next week. 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 rain chances.

.MARINE: Now through Monday...Buoy 42020 reported southeast winds
around 25 knots gusting to around 33 knots with seas of 12 feet
with a period of 9 seconds at 4 AM CDT. Dangerous marine
conditions are expected through this evening as Tropical Storm
Hanna moves further inland across Deep South Texas and into
Mexico. 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 Night through Thursday: Surface ridging over the Gulf of
Mexico 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 Monday night with
conditions improving afterwards. Some SCEC swells may linger
across the Gulf waters through Thursday.
