Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX
915 PM CDT Tue Jul 25 2017

.DISCUSSION...Scattered convection continues to develop offshore
this evening in response to a northward moving outflow boundary
(from convection that collapsed earlier this afternoon off the NE
TX Coast). This boundary marks the leading edge of deep tropical
moisture advection across the W/NW gulf and is leading to enhanced
low level moisture convergence across a corridor of stronger
instability (along with some minor interaction with a TUTT low
and approaching mid level vort max). Convection should persist a
few more hours offshore before moisture convergence wanes and
activity begins to dissipate. As such, I have increased POPs for
this evening for the Gulf waters.

Over land, earlier deep convection has dissipated with the loss of
diurnal warming. Debris CI should gradually thin through the
night. Have yanked POPs for land areas for the rest of this
evening, though will have to monitor areas along Matagorda Island
as a brief isolated shower may develop later tonight.

No other changes made to inherited forecast at this time.
