yet, but I'm hoping !  we do have some cloud cover today, keeping things a bit cooler, only 97 reported in Tomball right now.  there is some scattered rain in some areas - hoping the system holds together, HGX didn't think it would

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX
1055 AM CDT SAT AUG 13 2011

.DISCUSSION...
LARGE MCS ONGOING ACROSS WEST TEXAS THIS MORNING PRODUCING
FLOODING IN THE SAN ANGELO AREA. IR IMAGERY SHOWING THAT CLOUD
TOPS ARE WARMING OVER NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS ALONG THE EASTERN
PERIPHERY OF THE CONVECTION. THIS INDICATES THAT THE EASTERN
PORTION OF THE MCS WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN THROUGH EARLY AFTN. SFC
ANALYSIS SHOWS VERY LITTLE IN THE WAY OF A COLD POOL WITH THE MCS
AND A POORLY DEFINED OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. THE END RESULT OF ALL THIS
UNFORTUNATELY IS THAT THERE IS LITTLE IF ANY CHANCE OF THE
COMPLEX OF STORMS MAKING IT TO SE TX. 12Z ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT THE
DEEPEST MOISTURE IN THE 850-700 MB LAYER REMAINS NORTH AND WEST OF
THE AREA WITH PWS OVER SE TX GENERALLY IN THE 1.5-1.7 INCH RANGE.
CAPPING WILL BE SLIGHTLY WEAKER THAN ON PREVIOUS DAYS WITH THE
UPPER HIGH NOW WEST OF THE AREA. WILL KEEP 20 POPS GOING THIS
AFTN/EVENING FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF ISOLATED CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE SEABREEZE...AND POSSIBLY OVER THE NORTHERN
PORTIONS OF SE TX IF A SFC OUTFLOW FROM THE STORMS MANAGES TO MAKE
IT THAT FAR SOUTH. 12Z NAM SHOWS THE POTENTIAL FOR AN MCS TO
DEVELOP OVER NE TX THIS EVENING AND AFFECT PARTS OF SE TX LATE
TONIGHT/SUNDAY. WILL INVESTIGATE THIS MORE IN THE AFTERNOON PACKAGE.

AS FOR TEMPS...THEY ARE RUNNING VERY CLOSE TO YESTERDAY`S VALUES
THIS HOUR. HIGH CLOUDS FROM THE MCS MAY HAVE A SLIGHT IMPACT ON
TEMPS UP NORTH. ONGOING FORECAST LOOKS GOOD AND DID NOT MAKE ANY
CHANGE TO FCST TEMPS. AND NOW TO FINISH OFF WITH TODAY`S CLIMATE
FACT: THE ALL-TIME RECORD HIGH MINIMUM TEMPERATURE OF 85 DEGREES
IN GALVESTON OCCURRED A TOTAL OF NINE TIMES BETWEEN 1874 AND 2010.
IT HAS NOW OCCURRED NINE TIMES THIS SUMMER...INCLUDING ON THE
LAST SEVEN CONSECUTIVE MORNINGS.
