320 FXUS64 KEWX 082358 AFDEWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX 658 PM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 ...New AVIATION... .SHORT TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... Issued at 150 PM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 An upper level trough over the Gulf is approaching the TX coast. This feature is generating showers and thunderstorms over the Coastal Plains. Showers and thunderstorms will continue to spread toward the I-35 Corridor and may reach the eastern Hill Country by late this afternoon. Rainfall rates have been moderate and this should continue through the afternoon. Convection should dissipate rapidly after sunset. Temperatures will drop to near normal lows overnight. The upper level trough will continue to move into TX Wednesday bringing another round of showers and thunderstorms across the Coastal Plains and I-35 to the Hill Country. The airmass over the region will continue to slowly dry and rainfall should be mostly moderate. High temperatures Wednesday will be about the same as today. Convection should die off quickly again with the loss of daytime heating. It looks like there will be less cloudiness Wednesday night allowing temperatures to drop a couple of degrees lower than tonight. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... Issued at 150 PM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 Thursday the upper trough will move away from our CWA and the subtropical ridge will strengthen bringing an end to convection for most of the area Thursday and Friday. There will be slight chances for showers over the Coastal Plains along the seabreeze. With no rain and less cloudiness temperatures will rise a few degrees getting back to near normal. The subtropical ridge will weaken again over the weekend allowing for another chance for showers and thunderstorms. Convection will be possible both afternoons across our entire CWA. Chances will be highest over the east where moisture will be deepest. Slight chances for rain will continue Monday and Tuesday during the day. Temperatures will rise a little more getting a bit above normal. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 654 PM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 Early evening convection is focusing away from the I-35 Corridor and should be gone by dusk for the rest of the area. Less coverage of convection is expected for Wednesday, so will not plan on any Prob30 groups for now. Scattered areas of low cigs are expected again tonight, but with the south breeze falling below 5 knots at times, there will be more periods of SCT coverage with VFR skies mixed in. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
