Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 307 PM CDT Sat Jul 8 2017 .SHORT TERM (Tonight through Sunday Night)... Area radars are showing isolated showers and thunderstorms across the coastal Plains and few light showers across the northern part of the Hill Country. The coastal activity is due to the sea breeze and the one to the north of the Hill Country is associated to an outflow boundary moving to the south. Surface observations show a drier airmass dominating the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande. The GFS model guidance and area forecast soundings suggest for this conditions to persist through the evening and continuing through Sunday morning. However, the eastern half of South Central Texas has a better chance to see isolated showers and one or two thunderstorms later this afternoon and early evening as breeze activity pushes further to the north and the outflow boundary pushes to the south and into the Hill Country. Showers and storms should come to an end by 9 PM this evening. Expect partly cloudy skies for the tonight period mainly across the eastern half of the area with overnight lows in the low to mid 70s most areas. There will be better chances for rain on Sunday as a strong sea breeze activity is expected and a back door cold front/boundary pushes down into the eastern half of the area. Otherwise, partly cloudy skies for the rest of the area with high temperatures in the mid to upper 90s. && .LONG TERM (Monday through Saturday)... Upper level ridge looks to take control Sunday evening into Tuesday of next week with chances for rain mainly across the coastal Plains. By Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday, rain chances are expected to increase across the area as an inverted upper level trough moves into the area from the northwest Gulf of Mexico. Chances for rain continue into the latter part of the week as upper level trough energy remains across the area in addition to an upper level shear axis forecast to sit across the northern part of the Hill Country. Cloud coverage is expected to help daytime temperatures to only reach the low 90s by the end of the work week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
