SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
A very large area of low pressure over the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico continues to increase its likelihood of development into a
tropical system over the next 18-24 hours as it slowly traverses the
western Gulf. This system is expected to turn to the west-northwest
and become a tropical storm late tonight into early Wednesday
morning with a most likely eventual landfall along the Mexican coast
Wednesday evening. Tropical Storm Warnings remain in effect along all
coastal counties across South Texas, the bays and Gulf waters out to
60 nm from Baffin Bay through Port O`Connor.
Regardless of development and eventual landfall location, there are
several hazards and impacts expected across South Texas from tonight
through Thursday due to the large extent and slow movement of this
system. The main threats continue to be:
- Flash Flooding: Moderate to high threat of flash flooding today
through Thursday. Rainfall accumulations of 8-10" are expected along
the Coastal Bend with localized rainfall amounts up to 15". Across
the rest of the region, the Victoria Crossroads could see
accumulations of 6-8" through Thursday, while the Brush Country
could have amounts as high as 4-6".
- Coastal Flooding: Significant coastal flooding is expected with
around 3 ft of inundation possible across the Middle Texas Coast
including the bays between Baffin Bay and Matagorda Bay. In
addition, there is a High risk of rip currents.
- River Flooding: Considerable river flooding along portions of the
eastern Coastal Plains and Victoria Crossroads from tonight
through Thursday. There is a 25% chance of Major flooding at the
Aransas River at Skidmore and a 12% at Oso Creek.
- Winds: Sustained winds of 35 mph with gusts to 45 mph can be
expected across the Coastal Bend, while winds of up to 50 knots can
be expected over the bays and Gulf waters out to 60 nm from Baffin
Bay through Port O`Connor.
- Hazardous Seas: Wave heights 12 to 15 feet with occasionally up to
18 feet.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* FLOODING RAIN:
Protect against life-threatening rainfall flooding having possible
extensive impacts across South Texas. Potential impacts include:
- Major rainfall flooding may prompt many evacuations and rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may rapidly overflow their banks in
multiple places. Small streams, creeks, canals, and ditches may
become dangerous rivers. Flood control systems and barriers may
become stressed.
- Flood waters can enter many structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or washed
away. Many places where flood waters may cover escape routes.
Streets and parking lots become rivers of moving water with
underpasses submerged. Driving conditions become dangerous.
Many road and bridge closures with some weakened or washed out.
* SURGE:
Prepare for locally hazardous surge having possible limited impacts
across the Coastal Bend. Potential impacts in this area include:
- Localized inundation with storm surge flooding mainly along
immediate shorelines and in low-lying spots, or in areas
farther inland near where higher surge waters move ashore.
- Sections of near-shore roads and parking lots become overspread
with surge water. Driving conditions dangerous in places where
surge water covers the road.
- Moderate beach erosion. Heavy surf also breaching dunes, mainly
in usually vulnerable locations. Strong rip currents.
- Minor to locally moderate damage to marinas, docks, boardwalks,
and piers. A few small craft broken away from moorings.
* WIND:
Prepare for hazardous wind having possible limited impacts across the
Coastal Bend. Potential impacts in this area include:
- Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored
mobile homes. Unsecured lightweight objects blown about.
- Many large tree limbs broken off. A few trees snapped or
uprooted, but with greater numbers in places where trees are
shallow rooted. Some fences and roadway signs blown over.
- A few roads impassable from debris, particularly within urban
or heavily wooded places. Hazardous driving conditions on
bridges and other elevated roadways.
- Scattered power and communications outages.
Elsewhere across South Texas, little to no impact is anticipated.
* TORNADOES:
Protect against a tornado event having possible limited impacts
across southern Coastal Bend. Potential impacts include:
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power
and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, chimneys
toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned,
large tree tops and branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees
knocked over, moving vehicles blown off roads, and small boats
pulled from moorings.
Elsewhere across South Texas, little to no impact is anticipated.
