342 FXUS64 KHGX 210456 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 1156 PM CDT Mon Aug 20 2018 .AVIATION [06Z TAF Issuance]... The showers and thunderstorms east of CLL this evening have finally diminished, leaving behind some high clouds. A shallow scattered deck will fill in during the early morning hours before rising and thickening by late morning. VFR ceilings and visibilities should prevail until early afternoon. VCSH/VCTS will be possible especially for the Houston Metro terminals and northward, with development focusing along the weak frontal boundary tomorrow. Overall, 00Z short term guidance has increased coverage starting around 21Z and filling in southward through the evening hours across SGR/HOU/IAH and maybe as far south as LBX. Therefore have added in VCTS to the northern TAF sites to account for these trends, while only keeping VCSH in at LBX. Any showers or thunderstorms that do develop will be battling subsidence as upper-level ridging attempts to build into the region. Winds will range between 5-12kts and variable in direction through most of the day tomorrow as this boundary washes out across SE TX. Hathaway && .PREV DISCUSSION /Issued 922 PM CDT Mon Aug 20 2018/... .UPDATE... 01Z Surface analysis shows a weak cold front draped across NW Louisiana, to north of Crockett, and just south of Waco. This frontal boundary should continue to slug southward across SE TX tonight and into tomorrow. Current radar imagery is continuing to show a splattering of thunderstorms spread out across this feature, impacting Houston, Madison, and northern Trinity counties. Short term guidance is having a tough time initializing these showers and thunderstorms, as most of the guidance had the precipitation dissipating shortly after sunset. Expecting these showers to eventually diminish in the next hour or two as they continue to move to the southeast. Additionally, winds behind this feature are light and out of the northwest. South of this boundary, onshore flow remains with wind speeds between 6-12 mph. Low temperatures tonight will dip into the upper 70s inland to lower 80s along the coast, not allowing for much relief after another warm summer day. With dewpoints still in the mid 70s south of the frontal boundary, areas south of this boundary will start off muggy tomorrow morning. Showers and thunderstorms are again expected to develop along the sea and bay breezes tomorrow as the marine layer pushes inland. These mesoscale features combined with the front sliding slowly southward will help to provide a chance for precipitation. Tomorrow will still be on the hot side with heat index values forecast to range between 101-109 degrees, with the highest values along and south of I-10. Hathaway && .MARINE... As a weak cool front descends into eastern Texas through Tuesday, the maritime pressure gradient will relax going into mid week. This weaker regional gradient will maintain a primarily light west to southwesterly wind field through early Wednesday. This surface boundary may reach the nearshore waters by Wednesday afternoon and briefly swing light winds more north of west. Low end rain and storm chances Tuesday and Wednesday in relation to this vicinity boundary. Sea heights will generally range between 1 near 3 feet through the remainder of the week. 31 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Thoughts: I saw lots of rain during the afternoon only to find out that the area that I live in northwest Houston, TX didn't get any rain at all. I always find that to be really interesting that one area of a big city could have a rainy day while other parts of the city had a dry non-rainy day.
