Areal Flood Advisory 24, NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
315 PM CDT Sat May 1 2021

.SHORT TERM (Tonight through Sunday Night)...
A band of showers and thunderstorms is rapidly pushing away from the
I-37/I-35 corridors with areas of rain over the eastern Hill Country
and Central Texas. The band has and continues to produced excessive
rainfall and renewed flooding. As a result, will keep the Flash Flood
Watch going through 7 PM when the rain, showers, and thunderstorms
move east of our area. Weak instability and lapse rates continue a
possibility of a strong storm or two with gusty winds.

There are scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms over the
Edwards Plateau to near Big Bend associated with an upper level low
over the Serranias del Burro of Mexico. The upper level low will
accelerate moving over the Edwards Plateau later this afternoon,
Hill Country this evening, and Central Texas overnight. The showers
and thunderstorms will accompany the low as it moves across those
areas. With the faster movement, the flood threat is lower. However,
ongoing flooding will be slower to recede in areas that get this
additional rain. A strong storm or two is possible due to weak
instability and lapse rates. The upper level low takes the showers
and thunderstorms with it as moves off to the east by Sunday morning.

As a surface low also moves away on Sunday, southwesterly lower to
mid level flow takes hold drying the airmass somewhat. This allows
for much warmer temperatures. However, high temperatures will be
slightly lower than blended guidance due to moist soils from recent
and ongoing rains.

&&

.LONG TERM (Monday through Saturday)...
A dryline moves toward the I-35 corridor Monday afternoon allowing
temperatures to soar to well above normal across our area. Forecast
soundings show a weak capping inversion at time of peak heating that
may be able to be broken by the dryline and strong heating. Have
maintained slight chances of showers and thunderstorms across the far
eastern Hill Country to along the I-35 corridor late Monday
afternoon into early evening. Forecast soundings show MUCAPEs of
2,000 to 3,000 J/kg along the dryline indicating a potential for
isolated strong to severe storms. A cold front and upper level trough
move across our area Monday night into Tuesday generating isolated
to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms over the eastern half
of our area where moisture will be deepest. Cannot rule out a strong
storm. Breezy conditions are expected late Monday night into Tuesday
as high pressure builds into our area along with cooler temperatures.
Dry northwesterly flow aloft and reinforcing surges of high pressure
result in fair skies and near to slightly above normal temperatures
for mid week into next weekend.
