262 FXUS64 KEWX 131857 AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 157 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 ...New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... - Flood Watch in effect until 7 PM for the Hill Country, Southern Edwards Plateau, and I-35 Corridor. - Level 3 of 4 risk of excessive rainfall for tonight into Monday morning for parts of the southern Edwards Plateau, Hill Country, and northern I-35 Corridor; a Level 2 of 4 risk for the rest of South Central Texas. - Additional rainfall of 1 to 3 inches with isolated 6 inches possible across the Flood Watch area through Monday. - Rapid river rises are possible with this event. && .SHORT TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... Issued at 155 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 An upper level low pressure system is generating showers and thunderstorms in an usually moist airmass over South Central Texas. The system has been more progressive this afternoon, and rainfall totals have been more moderate than early today. This system will continue to move slowly across the region and rain chances will continue tonight. As the low moves away from our area chances should decrease to the 30%-40% range overnight. The deep moisture will remain in place making locally heavy rain possible in any strong updrafts. We will continue the Flood Watch until this evening, but for now let it end at 7 pm. We will re-evaluate the situation later this afternoon to see if we need to extend it. The upper low will continue to influence the region Monday. The airmass will still be very moist and the lift from the upper low will be enhanced by daytime heating leading to about a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon over the western Hill Country and Southern Edwards Plateau. At this time it looks like the chances for heavy rain will be limited, and we do not expect any flooding. Monday night rain chances will decrease to slight. Most of the CWA should be dry. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Issued at 155 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 Tuesday the subtropical ridge will begin building of TX. There will still be enough instability for a slight chance for rain during the day Tuesday. Subsident flow should suppress convection beginning Tuesday night. This will continue through the rest of the work week. Drier weather and more sunshine should lead to warming temperatures through the week. This should bring highs back up to near normal. Friday and Saturday we could see some seabreeze showers over the Coastal Plains during the afternoon. Temperatures will stay near normal over the weekend. && .AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1253 PM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 A mix of MVFR and at times IFR cigs are forecast to continue across the I-35 corridor terminals through early afternoon as this line of TSRAs makes its way across the area. VFR cigs are then expected for the rest of today into early evening before more storms are expected to move across the I-35 sites bringing down cigs and vsbys to MVFR levels once again. Added PROB30s to account for the possibility of more redevelopment this afternoon with all TSRA activity likely finished by 00Z. -RA is possible thereafter so added VCSH to account for this as well. MVFR conditions return overnight with VFR conditions returning by early Monday afternoon for all sites. South to southeast flow is forecast to prevail through the period. For KDRT have a PROB30 for overnight hours for possibility of redevelopment of TSRAs then. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
