Aviation Brief MVFR conditions for ali, vct and cot this morning will give way toVFR conditions by mid morning.VFR conditions are expected across S tx through this afternoon and evening. Brief MVFR conditions will be possible once again toward early Thu morning, mainly for ali, vct and cot. A few showers or thunderstorms will be possible today, however will not mention in the tafs due to the low probability. If a shower or storm moved across a TAF site, it would be very brief with minimal aviation impacts. Prev discussion issued 330 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 short term (today through Thursday)... mid upper level high pressure remains centered over N central tx this morning with an inverted trough tropical wave located over mex west of the CWA resulting in a deep easterly flow across S tx. This will help bring deeper moisture toward the tx coast today with pwats increasing to near 2 inches by this afternoon across the eastern cwa. The best instability and deepest moisture is expected to remain over the gulf waters, however isolated showers thunderstorms should shift inland with the sea breeze. Warm 850-700mb temps cap will hinder convection from becoming more active. Isolated convection will be mostly confined to the waters tonight with more scattered convection farther east over the open waters. Models are in fair agreement with a surge of tropical moisture (pwats around 2.3 inches) moving more northward across the northwest gulf on thu. However, some of this moisture is expected to work its way into the east and northeastern cwa. Through Thu morning. The deeper moisture is then expected to begin shifting to the northeast away from the area Thu afternoon, but the sea breeze should help maintain iso sct convection across eastern portions of the cwa. With the increase in moisture, high temps are expected to be closer to normal with afternoon heat indices expected to reach 105-109 across mainly the southern cwa. A special weather statement has been issued for the southern CWA to address the heat indicies. Heat indices may briefly approach 105 across the northern CWA but should only be for an hour or so. Long term (Thursday night through Tuesday)... the persistent ridge over the area will drift northward allowing a |
weak trough to drift westward across the northern gulf. Moisture is expected to return to the area along the trough, but models continue to indicate that the majority of the moisture will remain over the gulf waters. Pwats should increase to around 2.3 inches on Friday, before backing off slightly over the weekend. This should allow for some seabreeze convection through the weekend and into the first part of next week. Models indicate moisture moving over the western CWA and a 700mb vort MAX to the west of the area Sunday Monday, which should allow for some isolated to scattered showers over the rio grande plains and the brush country. The GFS is quite a bit stronger with this vort MAX than the ecmwf, and therefore, brings higher QPF into the area. Blending the two seems to be the most prudent at this time, with pops of 30 percent for much of the area early next week. Temperatures will remain warm, but will trend more towards normal through the weekend and early next week, particularly as cloud cover begins to move in. Relative humidity will remain high, which will contribute to heat indices of 105 to 109 across much of the coastal bend. Marine... weak to moderate onshore flow is expected today through Thursday. Increasing moisture will contribute to isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms today through tonight, then becoming more scattered Thursday as deeper moisture surges northward across the northwest gulf. Weak to moderate onshore flow will continue through the weekend and into early next week. Increasing chances of showers and thunderstorms are expected through Saturday. These could continue through early next week, though the chances will be decreasing Sunday through Monday night.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
