 Wind Advisory  Statement as of 3:13 PM CDT on March 20, 2010


... Wind Advisory remains in effect until 8 PM CDT this evening...

A Wind Advisory remains in effect until 8 PM CDT this evening.

A strong cold front pushing through south central Texas this
morning will bring blustery north winds to the region today.
Northerly winds will increase to 25 to 35 mph with higher gusts
of 35 to 45 mph behind the cold front. Therefore a Wind Advisory
is in effect from 6 am until 8 PM this evening. Winds will
subside to 15 to 20 mph after 8 PM.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that sustained winds of 26 to 39 mph are
expected. Winds this strong can make driving difficult...
especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution.






 Fire Weather Watch  Statement as of 4:16 am CDT on March 20, 2010


... Fire Weather Watch in effect from Sunday afternoon through
Sunday evening...

The National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio has issued a
Fire Weather Watch... which is in effect from Sunday afternoon
through Sunday evening.

On Sunday humidities will fall into the teens to near 20 across
much of the region as winds will continue to blow out of the north
and northwest at 15 to 25 mph. This will result fire weather values
near or above critical levels by Sunday afternoon. Therefore a
Fire Weather Watch has been issued for Sunday afternoon and evening.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Fire Weather Watch means weather conditions are expected to
promote fires that will be difficult to control across the watch
area. A Fire Weather Watch is completely separate from a local
burn ban which is issued by local officials.

Previous discussion... /issued 427 PM CDT Sat Mar 20 2010/ 


Discussion... 
middle to upper level ridging to keep south central Texas under a 
subsidence northwesterly flow for 24 to 36 hours before it turns 
more westerly (zonal flow) during Monday afternoon/evening. 


Surface high pressure will continue to build across central Texas 
tonight while it moves southeastern and then into the Gulf of 
Mexico late Monday into Tuesday. 


This weather setup will give US pleasant weather conditions for 
the next few days while northwesterly wind flow will keep the 
local area under a cold air mass...with high temperatures expected 
to be around the middle 60s on Sunday...but low temperatures to be 
near freezing on Sunday morning and once again on Monday morning. 


By Monday afternoon into Tuesday...the zonal flow mentioned above 
will build in while a surface returning flow is expected. This 
will bring back seasonal Spring temperatures for much of next week. 


A cold front is anticipated to come across the local area Wednesday 
afternoon/evening continuing through Thursday...increasing the 
chances for showers and isolated thunderstorms across south 
central Texas...but much likely to The Hill Country...northeast 
and east of the County Warning Area. Significant rainfall amounts are not expected 
at this time in association with this system. 


For the record...preliminary 24 hour storm total rainfall amounts 
measured as frontal passage went by the area: 


0.49 inches at New Braunfels Municipal Airport 
0.59 inches at San Antonio International Airport 
0.69 inches at Austin international Airport 
1.05 inches at Camp Mabry
