247 PM CDT Sun Aug 20 2017

.SHORT TERM (Tonight through Monday Night)...
Increased low level moisture is expected late this evening into
Monday as southerly flow dominates the region. This will keep lows in
the mid to upper 70s across much of the area with lower 70s over the
Hill Country. An upper level inverted-trough located over the
northern part of the Gulf this afternoon is forecast to move to the
west and into our area Monday and perhaps aid isolated
showers/storms across the coastal plains in the afternoon hours.
Some of the activity could get as far north to just east of
Interstate 35. Highs will run between the mid to upper 90s range.
Cloud coverage increases once again Monday night with overall lows
in the mid 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM (Tuesday through Sunday)...
The upper level ridge dominating our region the past several days
moves to the west and weakens as the upper level trough/TUTT
continues to move to the west. This will bring another chance for
rain across the coastal plains and our southeast counties Tuesday
afternoon. By mid-week into early next weekend, chances for rain
increase across the entire local area as a cold front approaches the
region from the north in combination with the passage of several
short-wave disturbances. The Euro and Canadian solutions are more
aggressive with precipitation than the GFS through the extended
forecast period. At this time, will keep PoPs between 20 to 40
percent range for the Wednesday through Saturday period until
medium-range models have better agreement with the passing short-wave
disturbances and increased moisture(remnants of Harvey) entering the
southwest part of the Gulf.
