NWS Corpus Christi, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Sep 6, 5:29 PM CST, 51 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 629 PM CDT Sun Sep 6 2020 .DISCUSSION... 00Z aviation discussion follows. && .AVIATION... Just a few showers near VCT, LRD and COT are on track to dissipate in the next hour or so ahead of VFR conditions for most/all of the night. Toward daybreak, indications still point to some low clouds developing mainly at ALI and LRD, but only the former shows enough confidence for MVFR mention at this time. Very spotty afternoon TS are expected Labor Day with light winds prevailing. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 343 PM CDT Sun Sep 6 2020/ SHORT TERM (Tonight through Monday Night)... Lingering boundaries and a weak mid-level shear axis across coastal Texas has led to isolated to scattered convection this afternoon. PWAT still remain near 2.0 inches per GOES satellite. Will expect activity to diminish through the evening with the loss of heating. Mid-level ridging will nudge in from the gulf which should help suppress activity, but we will still be influenced by a few vort max lobes. With PWATs near 2.0 inches again for Labor Day, will maintain thermally driven isolated showers and possible thunderstorms despite weak ridging. Will keep only slight chance POPs mainly for the Coastal Bend and Victoria Crossroads where models position best lift. Temperatures tonight should again drop into the low to mid 70s, with near 80 degrees along the immediate coast. Highs for Labor Day should warm into the lower 90s. Moisture is expected to gradually increase through Monday night, so have trended with slightly warmer overnight lows. LONG TERM (Tuesday through Sunday)... Overall very challenging extended forecast with less certainty on strength and timing of the cold front later in the week. Forecast hinges on the evolution of the next trough progged to dig into the central Rockies on Tuesday. A pair of leading S/W's will eject northeastward across our CWA Tuesday and Tuesday Night ahead of the main trough bringing a chance for showers and thunderstorms. The main trough is then expected to meander near the 4 corners region on Wednesday before lifting northeast across the plains Thursday and Friday. As the trough lifts northward a surface ridge/frontal boundary is expected to settle southward into a very moist environment (PWATs 2.4") across South Texas bringing scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms. The NAM is most progressive and strongest with the front bringing it into South Texas Wednesday Afternoon. If that solution verifies, there will be a potential for locally heavy rainfall Wed-Wed N. The ECMWF is slowest and farthest NW and brings little in the way of lift or cold air into the region. With so much uncertainty, trended toward the National Blended Model (NBM) which hedges toward a warmer forecast. Drier air gradually settles into the region Thurday Night and continuing into the weekend with only slight chances for precipitation. Expect temperatures to be below normal, the question remains how much below normal. MARINE... Weak to occasionally moderate southeast wind will develop through the night as weak ridging builds in from the east. Any isolated showers and thunderstorms this afternoon should diminish with loss of heating. Additional isolated showers and thunderstorms are expected Monday. Increasing moisture on Tuesday will provide scattered showers and thunderstorms through Tuesday night. Scattered to numerous showers and storms will be possible Wednesday into Wednesday night as a cold front approaches the region. Moderate offshore flow is expected behind the cool front Wednesday night through Thursday night. Rain chances will decrease Thursday into Thursday night as drier air moves in behind the front. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
