janetjanet998 Posted April 18, 2016 Author Share Posted April 18, 2016 AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HOUSTON/GALVESTON TX 1056 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016 UPDATE ONGOING EXTREME FLOODING EVENT...WITH MOST OF THE CITY OF HOUSTON EXPERIENCING RECORD LEVEL FLOODING FROM ITS REGIONAL BAYOUS AND BASIC SHEET FLASH FLOODING. THE STRONG WEST-TO-EAST BAND OF CONVECTION IS BACK BUILDING THROUGH THE COASTAL COUNTIES WITH RECENT REPORTS OF HIGH RAINFALL RATES OF 1 TO 3 INCHES BEGINNING TO DECREASE AS THE LINE BECOMES OUTFLOW DOMINANT. NUMEROUS ROADWAYS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN SUBURBS OF HOUSTON DOWN TOWARDS (AND INCLUDING) GALVESTON ISLAND ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING FLOODING. THE BEST ADVICE TO ANYONE ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 10 CORRIDOR WHO IS CONSIDERING TRAVEL IS TO STAY PUT AND DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TRAVEL OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. AREAWIDE RAIN PROBABILITIES REMAIN HIGH THROUGH THE EVENING WITH ANOTHER 2 TO 4 INCHES OF RAIN ON TOP OF WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT RAINFALL RATES WILL BEGIN TO WANE IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND WE'LL SEE A BREAK FROM THE HIGH RAINFALL RATES INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. THE GENERAL MODEL TREND GOING INTO EARLY TUESDAY IS FOR A POSSIBLE SECONDARY BOUT OF RAINFALL LATTER THIS EVENING...WITH A THIRD ROUND OF AREAWIDE RAINFALL SLATED FOR WEDNESDAY?
