...HIGH WIND WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH LATE TUESDAY NIGHT...

* WHAT...Southeast winds 20 to 30 mph Tuesday afternoon, 
  becoming southwest 25 to 35 mph Tuesday night. Gusts up to 50 
  mph possible.

* WHERE...For the entire forecast region.

* WHEN...From Tuesday afternoon through late Tuesday night.

* IMPACTS...Damaging winds could blow down trees and power 
  lines. Widespread power outages are possible. Travel could be

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Strong wind gusts are expected to quickly
  spread across the region from west to east Tuesday into Tuesday
  night. There is potential for numerous trees to come down across
  the area, along with downed powerlines and power loss. Given 
  the nocturnal nature of this system and the higher potential for
  power loss before the approaching severe weather, it is 
  critical that you have MULTIPLE ways to receive warnings that 
  will wake you up. Ensure that at least two ways are battery 
  powered and the batteries are charged including phones and 
  weather radios.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates on this
situation. Fasten loose objects or shelter objects in a safe
location prior to the onset of winds.

...New AVIATION...

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1140 AM CST Mon Jan 23 2023

A broken MVFR cloud deck, with ceilings generally around
2000-2500ft, is currently in place across the region at issuance
time. Throughout the afternoon, this cloud deck should begin to
scatter out, with VFR conditions prevailing through the remainder
of the period. Northerly to northeasterly winds at around 10 kts
will turn more easterly overnight tonight to eventually
southeasterly by late Tuesday morning. Wind speeds will quickly
increase throughout the day on Tuesday. /96

&&

.NEAR TERM...
(Now through Tuesday)
Issued at 440 AM CST Mon Jan 23 2023

The next 48 hours or so will be the proverbial calm before the
storm as we fall in between systems. Primarily zonal flow will
develop in the wake of the last system with the surface cold front
pushing well offshore. Surface winds will remain northerly today
keeping drier and cooler air across the area. Monday night into
Tuesday will be when we attempt to reload in advance of a rather
deep upper trough and potent embedded shortwave trough. The main
change Monday night into Tuesday will likely be the wind. As the
main upper trough progresses across central Texas on Tuesday, the
embedded shortwave will round the base and interact with a rather
strong subtropical jet ejecting across southern Texas. As a result
the upper shortwave will take on a negative tilt and begin a
period of rather intense deepening across east Texas. This will
allow for strengthening southwesterly flow aloft to overspread
our area by Tuesday allowing for moisture to begin to rapidly
surge northward. At the surface, a rather strong surface low will
develop across east Texas leading to a strengthening gradient
southeasterly surface wind. Expect clouds to increase during the
afternoon Tuesday as moisture steadily increases and the stage
becomes set for our next impactful weather system. A couple warm
advection showers will be possible late Tuesday afternoon mainly
across southeastern Mississippi.

High temperatures will be cool this afternoon with highs in the
mid to upper 50s. Highs on Tuesday will be tricky as the daytime
high will likely remain in the 50s to maybe 60 along the coast;
however, the actual high will probably occur overnight closer to
midnight Tuesday night but more on that later. Lows tomorrow night
will continue the trend of cool as they will likely dip into the
mid to upper 30s. A HIGH risk of rip currents is expected to
continue through Wednesday. BB/03
