Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible Valid 300130Z - 300630Z SUMMARY...Lingering thunderstorms with capability of intense sub-hourly rain-rates and quick 2", may track across similar locations resulting in localized 2-3" totals and possible flash flooding overnight. DISCUSSION...A mature thunderstorm complex continues to develop along the forward flank/outflow boundary across south-central TX generally heading southward along theta-E gradient into Deep South Texas. A few individual thunderstorms have also developed along this gradient along/ahead of the mature complex. RAP analysis suggests air remains fairly buoyant even though outflow boundaries have been kicked westward from underneath the pre-cursory development, with 1500-2500 J/kg of MLCAPE still available. While CINH has been building in the wake of initial cells, weak inflow from surface to boundary layer and forward progression of the complex should be sufficient for moisture convergence to maintain thunderstorms into the overnight period. Moisture is fairly deep with total PWats of 1.75"+ to keep rainfall efficiency & rates high for sub-hourly totals up to 2" and spots of 2-3" totals, given expected forward translation speeds. The best risk for possible flash flooding will be in locations where pre-cursory development wets the grounds and increases stream flow, this may result in spots of up to 4" before the event is over. Higher risk for flash flooding will be west of 98.5W where FFG values are about .5-1"/hr or 3hrs lower than near the coast.
