Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Brownsville TX
644 AM CDT Tue Jun 1 2021

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

&&

.AVIATION...Brownsville radar currently indicates a cluster of
convection northwest of the RGV aerodromes, extending near from
Rio Grande City to east of BKS, moving to the southeast. The
latest HRRR run shows this activity moving towards the coast by
mid morning. Will mention TEMPO wording for TSRA at the all local
aerodromes, especially before 15Z. Otherwise, mainly VFR
conditions and light to moderate southeast winds are expected
through much of the period. Another round of convection is
expected to approach the RGV terminals late in the period.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 341 AM CDT Tue Jun 1 2021/

SHORT TERM (Now through Wednesday): A 500mb long wave trough
continues to dig southward out of the Rockies/Plains into Texas
early this morning. Also, a weakening mid-level ridge currently
prevails over central/northern Mexico with a cutoff low over the
Baja. A series of 500mb short wave troughs upstream will move into
deep south Texas through the period. The combination of the series
of impulses passing overhead and abundant low-level moisture in
place will support periods of convection through the short term.

A mid/upper level short wave currently moving towards the area from
Mexico is generating a cluster of convection just northwest of
Zapata County. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch remains in effect for
Zapata, Jim Hogg and Brooks Counties until 6 AM this morning. The
main threats with any strong to severe storms that develop will be
damaging winds, large hail and heavy rainfall. These storms may
spread into the middle part of the CWA by mid-late morning, but less
likely to be severe by that time. A moist and unstable atmosphere
will keep the threat of isolated to scattered showers and
thunderstorms possible through today. The Latest 07Z HRRR run
indicates that ongoing convection may collide with previous surface
boundaries allowing for additional development across the Rio Grande
Valley and eastern portions of the CWA later today.

Another short wave trough is expected to develop over Mexico and
move into South Texas later this evening into tonight. This will
likely produce another storm complex to form over northern Mexico
and/or southwest Texas by late this evening and move towards the
CWA. The Storm Prediction Center has a Marginal Risk of severe
thunderstorms for Zapata and portions of Starr and Jim Hogg Counties
in their Day 1 and Day 2 outlooks.

Highs today and Wednesday are expected to range from the lower 80s
at the beaches and the mid/upper 80s to lower 90s inland due to the
increase rain chances and cloud cover. Low temperatures tonight will
fall into the mid to upper 70s under mostly cloudy skies. Broad
surface high pressure across the Gulf of Mexico will continue to
moderate to breezy southeast winds today and Wednesday.

LONG TERM (Wednesday Night through Monday): Closed 500 mb low
pressure over the Baja California will morph into mid-level
troughiness over the central United States and yet another closed
500 mb low there during the period. This pattern will produce
generally scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms for Deep
South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley for a vast majority of the
forecast period. The sustained chance for precipitation and the
associated significant cloud cover will result in near to slightly
below daytime high and overnight low temperatures.

MARINE (Now through Wednesday): Broad high pressure will support
favorable conditions on the Laguna Madre and Gulf water today
through Wednesday. Light to moderate southeast winds and low to
moderate seas will prevail through the period. Isolated to scattered
showers and thunderstorms will be possible from time to time.

Wednesday Night through Monday: Favorable marine conditions will
prevail through a majority of the period courtesy of weak high
pressure over the western Gulf of Mexico. Increasing winds and
building seas will then occur for Sunday and Monday due to an
intensifying pressure gradient, resulting in Small Craft Exercise
Caution and/or Small Craft Advisory along the Lower Texas Coast.
