The storms which prompted the warning have weakened below severe
limits, and no longer pose an immediate threat to life or property.
Therefore, the warning has been cancelled.  However small hail, gusty

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
1253 AM CDT Mon Apr 25 2022

...New AVIATION...

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1125 PM CDT Sun Apr 24 2022

After discussion with SPC we have locally extended the Severe
Thunderstorm Watch (154) through 3 AM. There are some indications
from the HRRR and other models that additional development is
possible across northern portions of Val Verde and Edwards Counties
over the next few hours. WFO SJT just severe warned a new cell to the
southwest of Ozona and we continue to have a Severe Thunderstorm
likely producing hail in rural areas of Val Verde County between
Pandale and Juno.

In addition, slight adjustments in PoPs have been made to cover the
increased shower and isolated thunderstorm activity associated with
the pre-frontal trough extending from between Pearsall and Charlotte
up to Eastern Bexar County. These PoPs were increased from slight
chance to chance. Isolated lightning and thunder are possible,
although most of the activity should remain showers as CAPE and Shear
remain very low in these areas.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Monday night)
Issued at 208 PM CDT Sun Apr 24 2022

Warm and humid conditions continue this afternoon across south
central Texas. Current temperatures are in the 80s, with near 90
degrees out west along the Rio Grande. Similar to the last few
days, gusty south to southeast winds continue across the region.

Surface observations and satellite data show a cold front making
some southward progress through the eastern Permian Basin and west
central Texas. South of the front, the dryline is located across
eastern Pecos county southward into eastern Brewster county per
agitated cu field and surface obs. The dryline will tend to move
slowly to the east over the next few hours, but will likely halt
eastward progress closer to 23-00Z. Meanwhile, the cold front will
advance southward and with peak heating, some convection should
develop over the lower Trans Pecos region by late afternoon into
early this evening. Convective clusters would then tend to propagate
southward into the southern Edwards Plateau region. There is good
consensus among the hi-res models and we have opted to increase
precipitation chances across northern Val Verde and Edwards county
this evening. SPC maintains a Slight Risk for severe weather across
Val Verde, most of Edwards and eastern Kinney counties, with large
hail and damaging winds being the main severe weather concerns. Once
we loose daytime heating, we should see a decrease in convection
across the mentioned region. It is worth noting that at least a model
or two also show the possibility of convection developing across the
higher terrain west of the Rio Grande this afternoon and evening. We
will need to monitor for this possibility as well and have kept a
slight chance for showers and storms across the Rio Grande plains
this evening. Elsewhere, chances for rainfall remain fairly low
through early this evening. However, this will change as we get
closer to the very late evening hours into Monday morning as models
show the cold front will be moving into the Hill Country. Additional
showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop as the front
encounters plenty of moisture (PWATs ~ 1.5") and some upper level
support embedded in the southwest flow aloft. The models have trended
a little faster with the cold front and this is likely due to the
expected convection developing along and behind the boundary. Rain
chances will definitely be on the increase from north to south
throughout most of the day on Monday. As of now, the models tend to
favor the Hill Country into the I-35 corridor near and north of San
Antonio for the higher forecast rainfall amounts. With fairly slow
movement of storms and the available moisture, some locally heavy
rainfall is possible. WPC continues to maintain a Marginal Risk for
excessive rainfall across most of south central Texas on Monday. In
addition, we can't rule out a few strong to severe storms developing
along the front with perhaps an isolated hail and damaging wind
threat with the strongest updrafts. Severe weather concerns should be
on the decrease behind the cold front as cooler air in the boundary
layer advects into the region. Forecast high temperatures for Monday
remain a challenge as much will depend on the speed of the front. For
now, we will keep highs only in the mid 60s over the Hill Country,
with lower to mid 80s farther south into the coastal plains.

Rain chances remain fairly high across all areas through Monday
evening as some additional shortwave activity moves over the region.
We should see a decrease in precipitation chances from north to
south through the early morning hours on Tuesday. Low temperatures
Monday night will be cool, with upper 40s in the Hill Country to near
60 in the coastal plains.

Any rainfall will be beneficial, especially considering the ongoing
drought conditions across the region. Expected rainfall totals of
1/2" to near 2" are forecast, with locally higher amounts near 3"
possible. Most of the rainfall is expected Monday and Monday night,
with some lingering rain chances still in the forecast on Tuesday.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through Saturday)
Issued at 208 PM CDT Sun Apr 24 2022

Shower and thunderstorm chances will persist through the day on
Tuesday as Monday's cold front continues to nudge into far southern
Texas and the western Gulf of Mexico. Despite the front's surface
convergence zone being well to our south, overrunning moisture
transport in the 850-700 mb layer will support elevated showers and
thundershowers through the late afternoon hours. Activity should
shut off my midday north of a La Grange - San Antonio - Del Rio line
as the overrunning pattern slowly drifts south. Additional
accumulations will be minor compared to tomorrow, however, some
locations south of an Eagle Pass - San Antonio - La Grange line
could see an additional tenth of an inch of rainfall before the end
of the day on Tuesday. Expect the bulk of the overrunning activity
to vacate to the Brush Country and Coastal Plains by Tuesday
evening.

After the wet start to the work week, dry conditions should prevail
outside of our southwestern counties on Wednesday. An impulse of
energy is forecast to eject out of the Colorado Front Range during
the afternoon and early evening, encouraging a transition from
easterly to southeasterly flow at the surface. Resultant Gulf
moisture returns should keep broken to scattered cumulus coverage
around through the duration of the day, holding high temperatures in
the upper 70s across the northern half of the CWA. A shower or
thunderstorm cannot be ruled out across the southwest, where daytime
heating will be maximized and highs will reach the low 80s. Any
showers and thunderstorms will quickly subside following sunset and
the onset of nocturnal stabilization in the boundary layer.

Thursday through Saturday will be characterized by dry conditions
and breezy southerly to southeasterly surface winds. This will keep
humidity high, which will support a repetitive pattern of nocturnal
low stratus, followed by a gradual mix out giving way to partly
cloudy skies by the afternoon hours. As is typical in these regimes,
warmest high temperatures will be across the Rio Grande Plains,
where low cloud coverage will break up the fastest. High temps
should range from the low-mid 80s Thursday, with warmer values in
the upper 80s and low 90s expected on Friday and Saturday afternoons.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1235 AM CDT Mon Apr 25 2022

MVFR ceilings establish overnight ahead of a slow moving cold front
dropping southward into South Central Texas. DRT will be the slowest
to fall to MVFR levels sometime around 08Z. Due to the approach of
the front, ceilings will not only remain MVFR through the overnight
hours into Monday morning but will likely drop to IFR as the front
advances across the region from midday through the afternoon. In
addition, precipitation will also increase across all of South
Central Texas Monday morning after daybreak. Showers will first
approach AUS between 09z and 12z with thunderstorms possible across
all four TAF sites soon afterwards. It appears that the best chances
of precipitation will occur as the front moves across the region
during that midday through afternoon time period. However, showers
and thunderstorms will likely continue to linger behind the front as
well. Confidence remains low with regarding placement and timing of
convection as several rounds are likely with models indications
different areas. Winds will become northerly behind the front with
precipitation continuing through the day on Monday.
