Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
657 AM CDT Wed May 19 2021
.AVIATION [12Z TAF ISSUANCE]...
Mix of VFR to IFR conditions expected through the TAF period.
Line of strong TS that passed through SE Texas during the night
and most of the activity is now over the Gulf waters. Additional
SH/TS is expected to develop throughout the day, starting along
the coastal areas and then expanding northward. For tonight, the
HRR shows another line of stronger SH/TS developing over south
central TX, which moves over SE TX sometime late afternoon through
early tonight. With these storms, expect periods of heavy to
torrential rain, strong gusty VRB winds, frequent lightning, and
possible small hail. 24

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 407 AM CDT Wed May 19 2021/
..Potentially Dangerous Flood Event Continues...
SHORT TERM [Today Through Thursday]...
More rounds of showers and thunderstorms can be expected across
parts of Southeast Texas through Thursday as deep tropical moisture
remains place. With saturated grounds from recent rains and with more
rain coming, have extended the area's Flash Flood Watch through Thursday
morning. Rainfall totals are expected to average 2 to 4 inches with
locally higher amounts possible, and these could happen in a very short
period of time. If any heavy rain falls on already saturated grounds,
flash flooding can be expected. Rainfall totals for the week with this
event are still expected to average 4 and 8 inches with isolated totals
possibly exceeding 10 inches.
Early morning radar has the latest cluster of showers and thunderstorms
in/around the Matagorda Bay area and parts of our southwest and west
counties with activity gradually expanding northward and eastward. This
trend can be expected for the next several hours with a flood threat
for already saturated locations. At this time, do not see a whole lot
of model solutions getting the western parts of this activity correct,
so not really sure how far north or northeast this will expand. Would
think that airmass would be a little more stabilized from earlier activity,
but this is apparently not the case.
Keep up with the latest forecasts, and remember to NEVER drive across
flooded roads! 42
LONG TERM [Thursday Night through Wednesday]...
Periods of showers and thunderstorms expected throughout portions of
the long term period with chances ebbing late weekend into early
next week.
Additional amounts of rainfall can be expected Thursday night into
Friday as a possible coastal trough/low over the northwestern Gulf
waters moves into the Texas coast. This will allow for moisture to
surge mostly from the central-upper Texas coasts eastward across the
LA coasts possibly developing the heaviest rainfall along the
western half of the CWA into LA. This surge of moisture will result
in PWs of 2.0-2.1 inches along these areas on Friday afternoon. The
moisture then progresses westward over the rest of SE Texas Saturday
and into Central Texas Sunday as surface high pressure builds over
the Central Gulf coasts. With consistent S-SE wind flow persisting
through at least Thursday of the upcoming week, moisture transport
will pretty much linger over Central and Eastern Texas through the
end of the forecast period. Influences in the upper levels, however,
will determine how much development will actually happen across
Southeast Texas. On Friday an upper cut-off low over Northeastern
Mexico along with an area of strong upper level winds aloft, may
still have a good influence in aiding storm development over the
local area and have thus kept PoPs in the 40-60% range. Saturday,
upper level ridging scoots over to the west and into the eastern
sectors of Southeast Texas and could provide enough subsidence to
limit rain chances over that area. By Sunday, the ridge should
extend over much if not all of the CWA. Models hang the ridge
through at least Tuesday, suppressing much of our rain chances.
Though it is too soon to know for certain, Wednesday may have slight
rain chances as a very weak shortwave quickly moves through. 24
MARINE...
A series of disturbances will move through the area through the remainder
of the week with periods of showers and thunderstorms. Mariners should
expect periods of increased winds and rough seas. 42
HYDROLOGY...
Recent rains have lead to rises in area rivers, bayous and creeks.
Any additional rainfall will lead to more rises which could result
in flooding. Continue to monitor the latest Flood Warnings/Advisories/
Statements for the latest information. 42
