Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
625 PM CDT Wed Apr 5 2023

...New AVIATION...

.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Thursday night)
Issued at 214 PM CDT Wed Apr 5 2023

Much drier air has filtered in behind the cold front early this
afternoon with dewpoints tanking into the 10s and 20s. This will
result in critical fire weather conditions despite some morning
rainfall over portions of the Red Flag Warning. Northerly winds of
15-25 mph with some gusts up over 30 mph will be common through the
early evening with minimum relative humidity values falling between
5% and 20%. Fire weather concerns should rapidly diminish after 4pm
when the RFW is set to expire as sfc winds relax due to a weakening
pressure gradient. We will quickly follow our fire concerns with
rain/flooding concerns into the next 24-36 hours.

Tonight and Thursday, expect northeasterly flow to continue at the
surface, but flow between 850mb and 200mb will be southwesterly.
This will lead to a textbook overrunning type setup with a series of
shortwaves rippling through the flow at 500mb over South-Central
Texas through the duration of the short term forecast period. This
will result in rounds of rain and thunderstorms with locally heavy
rain/low chance of flooding rain possible, especially over the
Coastal Plains, where guidance continues to depict the possibility
of totals in the 2-4" range through Friday morning. At this point,
severe weather is not expected, however, there does appear to be an
outside chance for a small hail report or two over the southern Rio
Grande Plains (south of Highway 90) on Thursday afternoon, with SPC
placing this region in a Marginal Risk (Level 1 of 5) for hail.
Additionally, with regard to the flooding threat, WPC does place the
Coastal Plains in a Day 1 Slight Risk ERO, with a Slight Risk
extending to the I-35 Corridor on Thursday.

Much cooler temperatures can also be expected for Thursday, as
overcast skies and cooler air filters into the area. Rain-cooled air
will also contribute to a lack of warming through the day, with
nearly steady temperatures in the upper 50s to around 60 through the
day Thursday. Thursday night will feature continued rounds of
showers and storms with temperatures falling into the upper 40s to
mid 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 214 PM CDT Wed Apr 5 2023

The frontal boundary will remain stalled near the coast and
isentropic upglide over the boundary will produce showers and
thunderstorms across the CWA Friday. Most of the locally heavy rain
will have ended as some drier air moves in from the northeast. An
additional half inch of rain will be possible in some places east of
I-35. The boundary will become progressive again Friday afternoon and
rain chances will decrease through the evening. Dry weather will
return by Saturday morning. We expect rainfall totals for the event
to be 1/4" to 1/2" over the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande
Plains, 1" to 2" over the Hill Country, 2" to 3" over the I-35
corridor, and 3" to 4" over the Coastal Plains. WPC has included our
Coastal Plains counties in the Marginal Excessive Rain Outlook for
Friday. High pressure will move across the region over the weekend
keeping the weather dry into the start of next week. Temperatures
will warm each day Saturday through next Wednesday. Easter Sunday
will be partly cloudy and a little cool with temperatures a few
degrees below normal. Dry weather will continue into the work week
and temperatures will reach the middle 80s by Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 613 PM CDT Wed Apr 5 2023

The South-Central Texas I-35 TAF sites (KAUS, KSAT, KSSF) will see
deteriorating flight conditions later tonight through the end of the
TAF period (Thursday night) as rain and convection advances across
the region from the southeast. Ceilings and visibility will be
expected to gradually lower with the prevailing rain and occasional
thunderstorms to MVFR overnight then eventually IFR to near LIFR
during Thursday into Thursday night. With occasional thunderstorm
activity, have elected to go with VCTS at the sites rather than any
prevailing thunderstorm groups. Moderate northerly breezes should
continue of around 10 to 15 knots through the period.

KDRT will remain VFR through tonight and for most of Thursday with
increasing mid to high level clouds. MVFR ceilings are to develop
late Thursday afternoon towards the end of the TAF period from the
southeast. Additionally, shower chances gradually uptick Thursday
afternoon into Thursday where have elected to keep vicinity shower
chances within the TAF. Thunderstorm may be possible but overall
confidence is too low to insert into this TAF at this time. Winds
will generally trend out of the east to east-northeast around 5 to
10 knots at KDRT.
