Areas affected...East Texas
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 081540Z - 081745Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Scattered elevated thunderstorms over east Texas may begin
to pose a risk of hail in the strongest cores. Watch issuance seems
unlikely at this time, but trends are being monitored.
DISCUSSION...Recent radar/satellite loops show scattered showers and thunderstorms slowly intensifying over parts of east TX. This
activity is along the core of a strong southerly low-level jet, and
north of a surface warm front. Parcels near the surface remain
stable. But forecast soundings in this area show steep mid-level
lapse rates and weak-but-sufficient elevated CAPE for the risk of a
few robust updrafts. Low-level/deep-layer shear is quite strong,
which would support at least transient supercell structures as well.
So far, trends of this activity have remained below severe limits,
and model guidance suggests it may still be several hours before a
more focused severe threat develops. Nevertheless, trends will be
closely monitored for an increasing risk.
