000 FXUS64 KHGX 202112 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 412 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017 .DISCUSSION... Early afternoon coastal convection that flared up over Chambers ...Galveston and Brazoria Counties aided in regulating heat indices to under Advisory criteria. Towering Cu/Cbs and their subsequent cooling rain and outflow(s) kept many ambient temperatures in the lower 90s and...with dew points in the middle 70s...allowed heat indices to top out between 100 and 105 F degrees. Today`s near coastal enhanced storm activity a sign of what we can expect in the coming days. The approach and eventual stall of broad cyclonic Gulf circulation will tap into a greater than 1.8 inch pw plume creeping in from the east and produce daytime scattered showers and thunderstorms. The higher chances for late morning into afternoon TSRA activity will be generally focused along and south of an I-10/Highway 59 corridor tomorrow and Tuesday. Thicker cloud cover and precipitation/damp grounds will have subtle (relative cooling) effects on daytime temperatures. As dew points will still remain in the middle to upper 70s (mid to upper 60s within any area lucky enough to experience outflow air)...lower to middle 90s maximum temperatures will likely keep heat indices at or under 105 F. As has been the case the last couple of days SPS versus Heat Advisories should remain the norm. The broad western Gulf low or inverted trough will come ashore by early Wednesday. Although upper ridging will generally rule the synoptic over eastern Texas...an approaching Southern Plains boundary reaching the Red River Valley at mid-week may be the impetus that keeps at least low end POPs in place through week`s close. Per weaker winds brought on by upper ridging and it being late August...anticipating a more active mid to late work week sea/bay breeze boundary. Either convection and its subsequent outflow fronts emanating from and along these late AM/early PM meso boundaries...or residual boundaries laying around from previous day`s activity...may interact with this aforementioned northeastern Texas front to produce more widespread northern county convection on Thursday. Rain chances stay fairly high to close out the week to account for the above forcing within a continued heated and very moist late August environment. 31 && .Tropical... The remnants of Harvey...now a wave over the northwestern Caribbean Sea...is forecast to meander west towards the Honduras/Nicaragua coastlines. Models do have this feature moving back into the southern Bay of Campeche by early Thursday. A brief strengthening is then forecast with a short jog across the far southern Bay of Campeche with a progged landfall over the Tampico area Friday. As of now...there is no immediate concern that Harvey will impact Texas or its neighboring waters. 31 && .MARINE... 2-3ft seas and a light-moderate onshore flow will continue for the next several days. Scattered late night and morning showers and thunderstorms can be expected for much of the week. 47 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
