AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
1245 PM CDT WED JUN 25 2014
.DISCUSSION...
UPDATED PUBLIC FCST BASED ON SHORT TERM TRENDS AS DESCRIBED BELOW
IN THE AVIATION DISCUSSION.
.AVIATION...
SHORT TERM TRENDS:
METRO/COASTAL TERMINALS: LARGE AREA OF CONVECTION OFFSHORE IS
ROBBING MOISTURE FLOW INLAND & DEBRIS CLOUDINESS IS LIMITING
INSTABILITY FROM IAH TO THE COAST. STILL ANTICIPATE SOME SHRA &
STRATIFORM PRECIP IN THE EARLY AFTN HOURS. WILL NEED TO KEEP AN
EYE FOR ANY BREAKS OF SUNSHINE AS IT WON'T TAKE MUCH FOR
CONVECTION TO LIGHT BACK UP WITH ANY HEATING THOUGH.
WEST OF I-45 AND FURTHER INLAND: PEAKS OF SUN HAVE ALLOWED TEMPS
TO CLIMB INTO THE MID 80S. THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO SEE SOME SCT
TSTMS EMBEDDED IN THE PRECIP. LIKE YDAY AFTN IT'LL PROBABLY
EVOLVE INTO OUTFLOW DOMINATED SCENARIO. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND
GUSTY WINDS IN THE STRONGER STORMS.
LONGER TERM: DEEP MOISTURE WILL RESIDE ACROSS SE TX THROUGH THURS
(AND BEYOND) AND SCT PRECIP CAN'T BE RULED OUT ANYTIME. TO KEEP IT
SIMPLE FOR THE TAFS...GENERALLY ADVERTISED A BREAK IN THE EVENING
HOURS FOLLOWED BY REDEVELOPMENT NEAR THE COAST AFTER MIDNIGHT.
THEN EXPANDING & MOVING FURTHER INLAND THRU THE DAY. BRIEF IFR
CONDITIONS IN/NEAR CONVECTION. 47

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 941 AM CDT WED JUN 25 2014/
12Z CRP SOUNDINGS SHOWS A PW VALUE OF 2.08 INCHES WITH A
CONVECTIVE TEMP OF 82 DEGREES. THE LCH SOUNDINGS HAS A PW VALUE OF
1.97 INCHES WITH A SLIGHTLY WARMER CONVECTIVE TEMP OF 87 DEGREES.
IT WON'T TAKE MUCH HEATING FOR SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY TO REDEVELOP. A
CORRIDOR OF DEEPER 850 MB MOISTURE RESIDES OVER CENTRAL TEXAS WITH
850 DEW PTS AROUND 15 C. A WEAK 700 MB TROUGH AXIS EXTENDS EAST-
WEST ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS. AT 250 MB...WEAK UPPER LEVEL
DIVERGENCE WAS NOTED OVER DEEP SOUTH TEXAS AND THE MIDDLE TEXAS
COAST. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A WEAK DISTURBANCE OVER CENTRAL
TEXAS AND GOES IMAGERY SHOWS A PLUME OF DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE
OVER THE SW GULF. CONDS WILL STABILIZE A BIT THIS MORNING BUT WITH
THE INFLUX OF DEEP MOISTURE LEVEL...EVEN MODEST HEATING WILL
INITIATE CONVECTION. WILL MAINTAIN HIGH POPS TODAY AND CONTINUE TO
MENTION LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. WILL HOLD OFF ON THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH
FOR NOW SINCE THE STORMS ARE MOVING AT AROUND 25 MPH. FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE IS STILL RATHER HIGH AND RIVERS/BAYOUS STILL LOOK TO BE
IN GOOD SHAPE. WILL EVALUATE THE POTENTIAL FOR A FLOOD WATCH THIS
AFTERNOON. ONLY MINOR CHANGE TO CURRENT ZONES...TWEAKED MIN TEMPS
DOWN A BIT AND RAISED POPS TO 80 PERCENT. CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE
FOR FUNNEL CLOUDS TODAY AND AGAIN TOMORROW. 43
