NWS Brownsville, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 3, 1:40 PM CST, 4 hours 12 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BROWNSVILLE TX 240 PM CDT MON JUL 3 2006 .DISCUSSION...ONCE AGAIN...SHORT RANGE GUIDANCE KEEPS PERSISTENT 500 MB LOW OVER WEST TEXAS MEANDERING AROUND THE STATE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. BOTH THE ETA AND GFS WANT TO DRIFT THIS LOW BACK TO THE EAST AND EVENTUALLY BACK SOUTHEAST TOWARDS THE BRO CWA ON WEDNESDAY WITH THE GFS SHOWING THE LOW FURTHER. THIS DIFFERENCE IN POSITIONING BETWEEN THE TWO MODELS YIELDS UP A MUCH DRIER GFS RUN IN COMPARISON TO THE ETA. BELIEVE THAT THE GFS IS DRYING THINGS OUT A BIT TOO FAST AND CONSIDERING THE HIGH PWATS AROUND THE REGION...WILL GO WITH A BLEND OF THE MAV AND MET POPS KEEPING SOME MENTION OF RAIN CHCS IN THE SHORT TERM. THE RECENT QPF OUTLOOKS FROM HPC CONTINUE TO PLACE THE MIDDLE AND UPPER TEXAS COASTLINES IN THE MOST FAVORABLE POSITION FOR HEAVIER RAINFALL WHERE LOW LEVEL INFLOW AND CONVERGENCE APPEARS THE MOST FAVORABLE. SO CONSIDERING THESE OUTLOOKS AND THE CURRENT NUMERICAL GUIDANCE...WILL HOLD OFF ON THE FFA AT THE MOMENT. SINCE THE MET GUIDANCE IS WETTER...THE MET TEMPS ARE A LITTLE BIT COOLER COMPARITIVELY TO THE MAV NUMBERS. DESPITE THIS...TEMPERATURE FORECAST GUIDANCE LOOKS REASONABLE FROM BOTH MODELS AND WILL STICK FAIRLY CLOSE TO THIS OVERALL TREND. THE POSITIONING OF THIS UPPER LOW REMAINS A LITTLE QUESTIONABLE IN THE LONGER RANGE GUIDANCE AS THE GFS AND THE ECMWF SHOW QUITE A BIT OF DIFFERENCE IN THE OVERALL HANDLING OF THIS FEATURE. THE GFS KEEPS THE LOW WANDERING AROUND SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS INTO THURSDAY EVENTUALLY SHEARING OUT THE FEATURE TO THE WEST AS 500 MB RIDGING BUILDS INTO THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO. THE ECMWF SHOWS A WETTER SCENARIO FOR DEEP SOUTH TEXAS WITH THE 500 MB LOW SITUATED FURTHER SOUTH OF BRO. DESPITE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE TWO MODELS...WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION CHC POPS FOR MUCH OF THE EXTENDED RANGE PERIODS AS TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL LIKELY REMAIN POOLED OVER PORTIONS OF THE REGION DUE TO THE CLOSER PROXIMITY OF THIS UPPER LOW. THE CURRENT MEX TEMP GUIDANCE STAYS PRETTY CLOSE TO PERSISTENCE INTO THE LONGER RANGE AND THIS LOOKS OK. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
