Area Doppler radars are showing light rain across parts of the southern Edwards Plateau and Val Verde county as of 1 AM CDT Monday. Some hires models continue this trend while others show moderate to locally heavy rain later this morning into the afternoon. The latest GFS and NAM solutions keep shower and thunderstorm activity across the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande for most of today (Monday). For areas across the Hill Country, I-35 corridor, and coastal plains, things look drier, however, a few moderate to heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms could develop in the afternoon. Based on latest weather guidance, decided to cancel several counties from the Flood Watch while kept those along and west of I-35 corridor through noon today. The frontal boundary responsible of Sunday`s rain is now across the coastal plains and extends into the Rio Grande. There is little movement to the tail end of the frontal boundary and remains over the Rio Grande through Tuesday. Over these locations is where the best chances for rain remain. Otherwise, dry weather conditions are expected over most areas on Tuesday. && .LONG TERM (TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)... Dry weather conditions prevail Tuesday night through Friday. By the upcoming weekend, rain chances return as an upper level disturbance moves across the local area according to the GFS solution while the ECMWF keeps dry conditions. Time will tell as we get closer to the weekend and get hires data to identify the potential for rain. Daily temperatures are likely to range from the lower to upper 90s and overnight lows in the mid to upper 60s to mid 70s. && .AVIATION (12Z MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)... SHRA/TSRA have redeveloped over parts of our area. Have PROB30s at KDRT for this morning and at the I-35 sites for late morning through this afternoon. Restrictions for CIGs/VSBYs have become more isolated early this morning.
