Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 5:29 PM CST, 1 hour 38 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAN ANGELO TX 629 PM CDT Fri Jun 26 2015 .AVIATION... /00Z TAFS/ VFR conditions will generally prevail across West Central Texas terminals through the period. Scattered showers and storms will continue ahead of a weak cold front, but coverage should remain limited. At this point, will just opt to continue the VCTS already mentioned in the forecast. Front will produce a weak northerly wind as it passes late tonight and on Saturday. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 351 PM CDT Fri Jun 26 2015/ SHORT TERM... (Tonight and Saturday) A weak cold front will move south into the Big Country tonight. At present, anticipate that this front will reach the Interstate 20 corridor by early Saturday morning. With unstable air and some weak upper support, scattered showers and thunderstorms are developing across the Low Rolling Plains and into the Big Country this afternoon. Expect additional development of scattered showers/storms through the evening and early tonight across our northern and western counties. A few strong or marginally severe storms are possible across the Big Country, parts of the Concho Valley and northwestern Crockett County. Locally heavy rainfall is also possible, with precipitable water values between 1.5 and 1.9 inches. The rain chance will expand across our southern counties overnight. On Saturday, the weak cold front will progress south through our central and southern counties. Carrying chance PoPs across our central and southern counties, with rain chances dropping off north of Interstate 20 during the afternoon. With increased cloud cover and rain chances, temperatures should be confined to the upper 80s for highs Saturday across most of our area. LONG TERM... (Saturday night through Friday) The long term forecast remains essentially unchanged. The weak cold front tomorrow will serve as a potential focus for additional showers and thunderstorms, across mainly our southeastern counties, tomorrow night. The potential for any lingering convection Sunday, across our Interstate 10 corridor counties, now looks very low. Thus, Sunday's forecast is now dry for all of West Central Texas. For Monday through Tuesday, northwest flow aloft could help initiate showers and thunderstorms; however, confidence is low here. So, continuing only slight chance PoPs looks reasonable. For Tuesday night and beyond, look for dry conditions, with afternoon highs mainly in the 90 to 95 range. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
