Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 257 PM CDT Fri Aug 23 2019 .SHORT TERM (Tonight through Saturday Night)... Convection over the region once again very limited across the forecast area with most of the activity north into HGX area. A few showers noted along the sea breeze, and could see a bit of an increase in this yet this afternoon. So far no storms, but can't rule that out through the afternoon. Most of the moisture currently in the Gulf of Mexico is still progged to head northward into the weekend, thus dont have PoPs on Saturday much higher than what we're seeing today. Could again have a slightly more active seabreeze, so do have 30 PoPs for the coastal bend. By tomorrow evening an upper level shortwave over west to central Texas will provide a slight chance for showers/storms for western zones. Generally sticking with persistence for min temps, near seasonal normals. Max temperatures will also be similar tomorrow to what we're seeing today, especially west. East and northeast could see some cooler values if showers coverage is higher. && .LONG TERM (Sunday through Thursday)... Isolated to scattered rain chances continue across the Coastal Bend/Plains and the Middle Texas Gulf Waters for Sunday and into early next week. The best rain chances through the extended period are expected to be on Sunday as the 12z model runs are progging a bit higher PWATs than yesterday with values ranging from 2.1 to 2.4 inches across South Texas. In addition to the ample moisture, the right entrance region of a fairly unimpressive 40-50 knots 250mb sub- tropical jet setups up across the region on Sunday as a 500mb shortwave trough pushes into Central/South Texas from northern Mexico. The combination of copious moisture and upper-level dynamics is expected to provide enough synoptic scale lift to support isolated to scattered convection across most portions of South Texas through the day on Sunday. Like yesterday's model runs, today's 12z GFS remains the most bullish with a prominent 500mb vorticity max and DCVA associated with that shortwave. However, the 12z NAM does not have as significant of a vorticity max as the GFS, but it is still hinting at a more conducive DCVA than the ECMWF/Canadian. Since GFS/NAM are beginning to align more with the shortwave trough and higher moisture, confidence for slightly higher PoPs is increasing a bit more for Sunday, but still have sided more along the lines of the ECMWF/Canadian solutions for rainfall on Sunday. For early part of next week, models prog the mid-level ridge to build eastward with the eastern extent of the ridge setting up over Texas. Subsidence from the ridge will likely result in drier conditions through the layer with lower environmental moisture through the week. However with moisture mainly confined near the surface, PWATs are still expected to remain around 1.8-2.0 inches, which combined with lift from the afternoon sea breezes will likely support isolated shower activity each day through the week. As for South Texas temperatures, can expected hot and humid conditions with highs ranging from near 90 degrees along the coast to mid 100s degrees out west and overnight lows in the upper 70s to low 80s through the extended period. As the ridge continues to build in across the region through next week, can expect a bit warmer temperatures by Monday and Tuesday. With the persistent summertime pattern, heat indices will range between 105-114 degrees with SPS's likely to be needed through Monday, while heat advisories may be needed by mid-week. && .MARINE... Showers and thunderstorms are expected tonight into Saturday through the coastal waters as a disturbance moves northward. Summertime pattern continues across the Middle Texas Coastal Waters with weak to moderate onshore flow persisting through early next week. Could see slightly more moderate winds Sunday & Monday afternoons for the southern nearshore waters resulting in SCEC conditions. Lingering moisture across the area waters will contribute to scattered showers and thunderstorms Sunday. As high pressure builds in early next week, moisture is progged to slightly decreases and result in mostly isolated convection through next week. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
