Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 617 AM CDT Tue Jun 27 2017 .DISCUSSION... See aviation discussion below for the 12Z TAF's. && .AVIATION... Cigs are expected to be at VFR levels most of the time with brief periods of MVFR conditions due to sct/num showers/thunderstorms. The best chc of convection will be across the eastern portions of S TX, especially this morning, then shifting farther west through this afternoon. Convection is expected to diminish this evening before redeveloping once again late tonight. Drier mid/upper levels by late tonight will lead to less activity, but still expecting isol/sct convection along the coast overnight tonight. && .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... /Issued 359 AM CDT Tue Jun 27 2017/ SHORT TERM (Today through Wednesday)... Abundant deep moisture with PWATs around 2 inches will remain in place across the region today. The moisture combined with a baggy trough aloft, moderate CAPE, and fairly strong low level convergence along the coast where a coastal trough resides, will produce sct to num SHRA/TSRA's. The best chances will be across the eastern half of the CWA. The convection is expected to wane this evening before redeveloping across the waters and along the coast once again late tonight/early Wed morning. Am expecting rain chcs to be a tad lower on Wed as the upper trough shifts S and E of the region with some drying in the mid/upper levels and PWATs decreasing to between 1.5 and 1.7 inches. Max temps Wed will also be a tad higher as a result. Winds will generally be east to northeast this morning becoming more easterly this afternoon, while over the coastal waters, winds will remain generally southeast. The weak to moderate onshore flow over the coastal waters is expected to become more moderate tonight. Tide levels continue to run slightly elevated, but are expected to remain below 2 FT MSL through the next high tide. Levels are expected to be around 1.5-1.7 FT abv MSL at the time of the next high tide. LONG TERM (Wednesday night through Monday)... The mid level shear axis will remain along the coast from Wednesday night through Friday with the deeper moisture being over the Gulf waters. Will continue with high chance PoPs over the Gulf waters to the Mid-Coast region Wednesday night into Thursday with PoPs tapered to slight chance along Highway 281. The shear axis weakens by Friday and moisture slowly decreases but will continue low end chance PoPs over the Gulf waters to the Mid-Coast region for Thursday night into Friday. Low level flow will increase by Thursday as low pressure forms over West Texas. SCEC to low end SCA conditions are expected Thursday night through Saturday. Drier air moves into the area by Saturday as the mid level ridge axis over the Gulf of Mexico builds to the west into the area. Heat index values will be back to the range of 105-109 degrees for Friday through the weekend into Monday. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
