000 FXUS64 KHGX 050440 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 1140 PM CDT Mon Jun 4 2018 .AVIATION... Convection should remain north and east of area TAF sites overnight. VFR conditions will persist through 08-09z before a mix of IFR and MVFR conditions begin to develop. Drier air off the surface will begin to mix down on Tuesday morning and VFR conditions should develop after 15z. Model QPF is benign on Tuesday and fcst soundings are trending significantly drier with PW values falling to around 1.50 inches by 21z. Will remove the VCTS as probabilities look too low to mention precip. Skies will clear in the evening with VFR conditions prevailing through 06z. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 905 PM CDT Mon Jun 4 2018/ UPDATE... Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms continue to develop north and northeast of the forecast area this evening along a boundary evident in surface theta-e fields stretching from Sherman/Denison to Lufkin to Opelousas, LA. The KHGX RAP VWP shows low level winds in the 1-3kft layer have strengthened anywhere from 15-25 knots and expect isentropic ascent associated with these winds and the surface boundary to allow for the potential for thunderstorm development to persist near the northeastern counties through most of the night. 305K lapse rates along the boundary remain steep through the night (6-6.5 C/km) so the potential for an isolated strong to severe thunderstorm near Houston, Trinity, and Polk counties will continue for at least a few more hours. Nacogdoches reported a 61 MPH gust from a thunderstorm earlier this evening and anticipate gusty to damaging winds being the main threat from any activity that is able to wander off the boundary and into the northeastern counties. A shortwave trough translating eastward out of Oklahoma this evening may also contribute to additional flare ups in convection along the boundary over northeast Texas, but expect most of this activity to remain well north of the region. Light surface winds across the southwestern counties Tuesday morning may be able to encourage patchy or light fog development with overnight lows in the 70s inland to lower 80s along the coast. Huffman PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 352 PM CDT Mon Jun 4 2018/ DISCUSSION... Not a whole lot of action going on as of 3 PM thanks to a cap in place, but we will have a shot at at least some scattered showers and thunderstorms later this afternoon and evening. Best chances for now look to be across the northeast portions of the area as this is where the stalled frontal boundary has settled in for now. With a little bit of an inverted V in the soundings and PWs near 2 inches, gusty winds and locally heavy rainfall will be possible with any storms that are able to develop. High temperatures were adjusted down a touch for the Brazos Valley as they kept higher cloud cover than was expected for much of the day. A shortwave trough rotates across the ArkLaTex late tonight into tomorrow morning, which could bring another round of showers and thunderstorms to the area. Most of this should be focused just to the northeast, but especially the NE and E portions of the area could get a round of showers and thunderstorms early tomorrow morning and into the daytime tomorrow. Lack of heating when the worst rolls through should generally limit the severe potential. After the shortwave exits, upper ridging builds back in over West Texas with SE Texas on the eastern periphery. Depending on the strength and placement of the ridge each day, we do keep enough moisture that a few showers and storms could develop along the seabreeze during the afternoons. Probably will have a little variance day to day based on the finer details, but overall the pattern will pretty much be the same through the rest of the forecast period. Afternoon temperatures will warm into the 90s basically every afternoon, so summer heat safety messaging will need to continue. 11 MARINE... A typical summer time pattern is expected over the northwest Gulf for the next several days. South to southwest winds are expected through the middle of the week at around 10 to 15 knots. Winds turn more to the southeast for the end of the week with speeds of 10 to 15 knots. Seas will remain around 2 to 3 feet in offshore areas with bays slightly choppy. 39 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
