Area Forecast Discussion

000 FXUS64 KHGX 032343 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 543 PM CST Tue Nov 3 2020 .AVIATION [00Z TAF Issuance]... A few high cirrus clouds showing up across the area this evening, with conditions remaining clear and within VFR thresholds through the duration of the TAF period. Winds will become light and variable overnight, veering slightly to the southeast by tomorrow afternoon but remaining around 5 to 10 knots. No cig/visibility concerns are anticipated. Cady && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 222 PM CST Tue Nov 3 2020/ SHORT TERM [through Wednesday Night]... It`s been another pleasant day across southeast TX today as ridging aloft moves overhead. Afternoon temperatures have climbed into the mid 70s, but a drier airmass remains in place with dewpoint values in the 30 to 55 degree range. A quiet night is on tap with overnight lows from the 40s well inland to near 60s along the coast. The main weather story on Wednesday will be warmer temperatures. Winds turn more southeasterly as the surface high migrates east of the region, bringing warmer and slightly humid conditions. 850 hPa temperatures climb into the 14 to 16 degree Celsius range; therefore, some locations could see temperatures in the upper 70s to near 80. LONG TERM [Thursday through Tuesday]... A mid/upper level short wave trough will replace the upper ridge that has been over SE Texas on Wednesday night and Thursday. This trough evolves into a closed mid/upper low just east of the area or in the NW Gulf by Saturday. This feature will put the breaks on the max temp warmup and basically hold them steady at the end of the week and early in the weekend, and will also produce some cloud cover over the area. Any precip with this upper low should remain east of the area. The surface high which is now centered east of the area will move further east to the mid-Atlantic region by Friday. This will produce a prolonged period of E/SE winds over the area. This pattern will produce above normal max temperatures with minimum temps continuing to warm through Tuesday morning. Early next week, a large and deep mid/upper level low centered over the four corners region will begin to advect eastward into the plains. The GFS is slightly more progressive than the ECMWF with this upper trough/low and its associated cold front. Expect the cold front to move into SE Texas on Tuesday and push off the coast Tuesday night or early Wednesday. It looks like there will be enough destabilization for isolated showers on Monday across western portions of the area, and then scattered showers and thunderstorms on Tuesday and Tuesday night ahead of and near the cold front. 33 MARINE... With a surface high pressure east of the area, light east to southeast winds are expected through the weekend. While winds remain light to moderate, seas could range up to 5-6 ft at times by the end of the week into early next week thanks to a persistent east to southeast flow. Small Craft Should Exercise Caution conditions for seas will be possible late this week into the weekend. 05 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
