Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
942 PM CST Wed Feb 7 2018

.DISCUSSION...
Cloud cover is scattering out across northern parts of the area
and guidance suggests most inland locations should see some peaks
of the stars tonight as drier air deepens thru the column. Areas
closer to the coast will probably see a broken cloud deck thru
most of the night. Temps are currently running a few degrees below
numerical guidance, but ongoing fcst already had this under
control. Other than to match current obs and trends with grids, no
changes were made to the ongoing forecast. 47

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 610 PM CST Wed Feb 7 2018/
AVIATION...
While the bulk of the stronger storms along the coast
are moving off to the E/SE, radar is indicating that some bands
of light RA are still developing/moving into the northern parts of
the area. As such will be keeping at least the mention of VCSH in
for most of the TAFS through the evening. Otherwise, the strong
inversion in the wake of this front will help to keep CIGS low
through the overnight hours even with the encroaching drier/colder
air...especially for the central and southern sites. Northern
sites (CLL and UTS) will see clear skies as the back edge of the
cloud deck nudges south shortly...but MVFR/IFR ceilings could
linger across the rest of SE TX until morning. Will keep with the
trend of improving conditions tomorrow afternoon for all but
LBX/GLS. 41
