NWS Austin/San Antonio, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 2, 7:38 PM CST, 7 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 838 PM CDT Wed Jun 2 2021 .UPDATE... Adjusted the PoPs upward in the short term along and east of the I-10/37 corridor as the 00Z HRRR, which has initiated fairly well compared to previous runs, shows the current convective complex advancing across that region. An isolated severe thunderstorm remains possible with large hail and strong winds. Given heavy rainfall rates, concern for flooding also exists where cells are capable of producing 1 to 3 inches quickly. Additionally, still showing some signals on models for a possible second convective complex approaching from west Texas late overnight into Thursday. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 650 PM CDT Wed Jun 2 2021/ AVIATION...00Z TAF Package VFR conditions begin the period at the TAF sites and that trend should continue throughout much of tonight. However, that depends largely on the evolution of ongoing convection. Latest guidance paints low confidence, but some activity may move into the region from the Hill Country later this evening into tonight. The late overnight hours through Thursday seems to feature the better opportunity for possible impacts from rain and/or convection with the possible approach of a complex of activity from the north- northwest. However, placement and timing of any activity with the complex is difficult to pinpoint and resulting in a overall low confidence forecast. MVFR ceilings likely develop during Thursday morning and will last through the remainder of the TAF period. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 448 PM CDT Wed Jun 2 2021/ UPDATE... Elected to make adjustments to the PoPs through the rest of today and into tomorrow given the latest observational trends and hi-res model guidance. Have generally lowered the PoP values through 12Z Thursday. Highest concentration of scattered activity this evening should continue to primarily focus across the Hill country into the Travis/Williamson County area and across the coastal plains. Once daytime heating is lost, models indicate that some kind of lull may develop later tonight and into the overnight hours. The latest 18Z HRRR and 3km NAMNEST then show the formation and/or the advancement of a MCS across the region from early Thursday morning through the day. Despite low confidence on exact timing and placement regarding this complex, this will be when PoPs will be highest across South- Central Texas over the next 36 to 48 hours. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 224 PM CDT Wed Jun 2 2021/ SHORT TERM (Tonight through Thursday Night)... A deep upper level trough extends from the Central Plains to the northern Baja Peninsula this afternoon with southwesterly flow over Texas. At the surface warm, moist air remains in place with temperatures in the 80s and dewpoints in the middle 60s to the lower 70s. Isolated convection has begun over the eastern half of South Central Texas. The forecast has changed very little today. The southern part of the upper trough will close off during the next 12 to 24 hours and drift across northern Mexico. As shortwaves rotate through this pattern they will initiate convection over the region. This afternoon and evening conditions are conducive for strong to severe thunderstorms across the northern part of our CWA where SPC has issued a slight risk for large hail and damaging winds. South of the slight risk is a marginal risk for most of the rest of South Central Texas. PW values across the area are above 1.5" and this will make locally heavy rain possible as well. Short term models a bit scattered in their solutions for this evening. It's hard to say where convection will develop and move. But storms that do form will be capable of producing a quick 1-2 inches of rain. Convection will continue overnight and into Thursday. Timing and location are hard to determine at this time. The airmass will remain essentially unchanged, so locally heavy rain will be possible again Thursday and Thursday night. LONG TERM (Friday through Wednesday)... The long term forecast shows some, but only little improvement to the upper pattern. Friday, an upper low, currently over Baja, gets absorbed into the trough before cutting back off over Texas. This upper low hangs out though the weekend causing multiple rounds of showers and storms at various locations spread throughout the CWA. So with little time to recover from the saturated soils from previous rain, areas will need to be monitored for flash flooding and/or river flooding. By early to mid-week next week, the upper low over Texas moves northeast while the upper ridge peeks in from the west. For the rest of the long term forecast, POPs will be split west to east, with rain chances east and dry out west. Temperatures through the long-term stay below normal with highs in the 80s through the period. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
