AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CORPUS CHRISTI TX
303 PM CDT WED JUN 20 2007
.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)...CLUSTERS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE ALONG AND NEAR INTERSTATE 35 FROM KLRD ALL
THE WAY BACK TO KSAT...PRODUCING LOCALLY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER
LASALLE AND NORTHERN WEBB COUNTIES. FORMER OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT
ORIGINALLY TRIGGERED ALL THIS IS NOW ALL BUT UNDETECTABLE FROM
RADAR IMAGERY...AND WITH WEAK FLOW ALOFT EXPECT LITTLE MOVEMENT OF
THE MAIN CONVECTIVE CLUSTER.
FURTHER EAST...JUST ISOLATED CONVECTION IS FIRING IN VARIOUS SPOTS
INLAND AROUND THE VICTORIA CROSSROADS...WITH THE SEABREEZE
APPARENTLY INHIBITING ANY ACTIVITY CLOSER TO THE COAST.
GFS SOLUTIONS HAVE CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY FROM PREVIOUS RUNS...WITH
MUCH HIGHER CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION ACROSS SOUTH TEXAS AS A WEAK
UPPER LOW/INVERTED TROF WORKS TO AID LIFT. WITH INSTABILITY
BECOMING A MAIN LIMITING FACTOR...BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION
WILL BE EARLY THIS EVENING AND AGAIN THURSDAY AFTERNOON. TRIMMED
TEMPERATURE RANGES A BIT DUE TO INCREASED MOISTURE AND CLOUD COVER.
&&
.AVIATION...ISOLATED CONVECTION POSSIBLE THROUGH SUNSET OR SO AT
ALL FORECAST POINTS...WITH HIGHER CHANGES AT KLRD CLOSER TO THE
LARGE CONVECTIVE MASS OVER THE NORTHERN RIO GRANDE PLAINS. SOME
BRIEF MVFR VSBYS POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT BEFORE RETURNING TO VFR
CIGS THURSDAY.
&&
.MARINE...SCEC CONDITIONS SHOULD DIMINISH NEAR SUNSET AS THE
THERMAL GRADIENT RELAXES...AND WITH GENERALLY WEAK FLOW EXPECT
WINDS TO REMAIN BELOW SCEC CRITERIA THURSDAY. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE OFFSHORE THROUGH THE SHORT TERM PERIOD.
&&
.LONG TERM (THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...TO SOME DEGREE...MCS
TODAY WHICH MAINLY HAS STAYED OVER THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE AREA
MAY HAVE PUT A BIT OF A FLY IN THE OINTMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE
MOISTURE FIELDS OVER THE WEEKEND...AS MOISTURE IS PROGGED TO LINGER
A BIT LONGER THAN PREVIOUS MODEL RUNS HAVE SHOWN (SINCE SURFACE AND
UPPER WIND FIELDS ARE WEAK THIS TIME OF YEAR). WILL STILL MAINTAIN A
DRY FORECAST FOR THE WEEKEND...AS MODELS INDICATE SOME CIN AND LESS
MOISTURE/DRYING AS PREVIOUSLY PROGGED. HOWEVER...SINCE WEAKNESS IN
THE UPPER RIDGE REMAINS...COULD SEE SOME ISOLATED SEA-BREEZE
ACTIVITY OVER THE WEEKEND BUT FOR NOW DO NOT WANT TO BITE ON THIS
HIGHER MOISTURE FIELDS AND MENTION RAIN JUST YET. THUS...GIVEN
AFOREMENTIONED...PUT IN SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR FRIDAY MOST LOCATIONS
THEN JUST HAVE GHOST 5 TO 10 POPS FOR THE WEEKEND. HOWEVER...DID
INCREASE CLOUD COVER FOR THE WEEKEND AS MOSTLY CLEAR FOR OVERNIGHT
MAY BE A BIT OPTIMISTIC. MODELS WERE SHOWING INVERTED TROUGH WITH
GOOD MOISTURE APPROACHING AREA ON MONDAY...APPEARS MAIN EFFECTS WILL
BE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY BUT GIVEN CONSISTENCY OF ECMWF ON HANDLING
THIS (AND ITS MOISTURE FIELDS) DID PUT IN A MENTION OF RAIN FOR
MONDAY EASTERN AREAS. CHANCE POPS MAINLY EASTERN 2/3RDS OF AREA
STILL LOOK GOOD FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. MADE A FEW SLIGHT
ADJUSTMENTS TO TEMPERATURE FORECASTS BASED ON HIGHER MOISTURE FIELDS
OVER THE WEEKEND.
