000 FXUS64 KHGX 100253 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 953 PM CDT Mon Oct 9 2017 .DISCUSSION... A line of showers and isolated thunderstorms were well to the northwest of Burleson, Brazos, Madison, and Houston counties at 9:45 PM. Expect these will continue to slowly move toward the forecast area. The 01Z HRRR and the 18Z Texas Tech WRF keep the forecast area free of precipitation until after 4:00 AM. Could see isolated showers moving onshore into the coastal counties before anything arrives from the west and northwest. Tweaked the rain chances for the rest of the evening. 40 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 653 PM CDT Mon Oct 9 2017/ AVIATION.../00Z TAF/ Surface analysis and GOES 16 imagery show pre-frontal trough located through north Texas/DFW down towards the NW Hill Country with a line of convection. The actual cold front was located back from western Oklahoma into west Texas near Lubbock. Ahead of the front expect area terminals to expect a mix of MVFR/IFR conditions with low clouds and fog forming. Cold front will catch the pre- frontal trough tonight and push into the area during the morning hours. Front should reach KCLL/KUTS around 09-10Z, KIAH/KHOU/KSGR 13-15Z and then along the coast 16-17Z. Hi-res models show convection developing along the front as it approaches the coast so will keep VCTS for KLBX and KGLS. MVFR ceilings will be likely post frontal and could hold on through the late morning to afternoon hours. Ceilings will improve through the afternoon with gusty northerly winds. Overpeck PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 350 PM CDT Mon Oct 9 2017/ DISCUSSION... Another very warm afternoon where Bush-Intercontinental Airport`s maximum temperature record of 94 F was achieved by 3 PM with Galveston not being far off...a degree from tying 2007`s Tmax record of 90 F. An approaching cold front will be making its way through the northwestern CWA shortly after midnight tomorrow...moving across metro shortly after sunrise and then be off the coast by 10 or 11 AM. Early morning (pre-dawn) patchy fog may develop just downstream of the approaching surface front. Not an overly-impressive cold nor dry backing air mass but...in relative terms...cool and dry enough to take us from summer heat to comfortably autumn warm in less than a day. A mostly overcast morning with scattered showers and thunderstorms in the vicinity of the lower level front as it encounters the higher pooling of downstream moisture over the southern half of the forecast area. Partially clearing through the day with afternoon ambient temperatures slowly warming into the middle 70s up north to lower 80s further south. Drier air to slide in on weakening northerlies early Wednesday with the mid-week (afternoon) mid-level dry air mix down equating to interior 50 F dew points/upper 30 to mid 40 min %RHs. Winds veer around the dial through Thursday and be back onshore by Friday midnight. Nothing extreme in the post-frontal T/Td field as mid-level temperatures remain in the upper teens. This will equate to subsequent day warming from the coolest days of Tuesday-Wednesday back into the late week average upper 80s. Slight maritime rain chances this weekend as weak central Gulf disturbances rotate in from the east under a westward expanding southeastern U.S. upper ridge. This 5H ridge is forecast to be unseasonably strong as mid-590dam heights clamp themselves down on the northern Gulf coast. There should be enough suppression to counter increasing lower level moisture. Very low weekend rain chances focused across the coastal counties to account for breeze activity as the upper 80s are met. The next cold front is slated for late Sunday or early Monday. 31 MARINE... The main marine hazard through tonight will remain elevated tides along the Upper Texas coast before a cold front sweeps off the upper Texas coast Tuesday. Tide levels are currently running about 1-1.5 feet above normal and this may result in levels peaking at or just above 3 feet at times of high tide tonight. Have held off on a coastal flood advisory as overall levels continue to decrease with time and wave periods are 8 seconds or less at both buoys, but minor wave run-up may result in isolated issues on Bolivar Peninsula. Tide issues will come to an end behind a cold front moving off the coast tomorrow morning as moderate offshore winds become established behind the front. A Small Craft Should Exercise Caution statement will likely be needed behind the front Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday morning. Winds are expected to decrease mid-week and gradually shift from the northeast/east to onshore by this weekend. Huffman && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
