    Areas affected...Deep South Texas

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 237...

    Valid 070900Z - 071030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 237
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Some increase in severe-wind potential is possible before
    storms move offshore, in addition to a continued large hail threat.

    DISCUSSION...A small but occasionally intense thunderstorm complex
    has evolved across Deep South TX early this morning. Earlier 00Z
    soundings from CRP and BRO depicted very rich low-level moisture
    (with 1 km mean mixing ratios greater than 18 g/kg) beneath steep
    midlevel lapse rates, resulting in strong instability. Strong
    deep-layer shear and elongated hodographs were also observed with
    these soundings, which aided in earlier intense supercell
    development that resulted in giant hail in San Ygnacio, TX.=20

    Some recent upscale growth has been noted, with smaller cells
    forming within a low-level warm advection regime to the east of the
    initial supercell cluster. It remains uncertain if substantial cold
    pool development can occur prior to storms moving offshore, but some
    increase in the severe-wind threat is possible, in addition to a
    continued hail threat.=20

    If a more organized MCS does develop, there will likely be some
    tendency for it to propagate east-northeast near an
    outflow-influenced surface front, within the buoyancy gradient and
    along the northern periphery of warmer 700 mb temperatures and
    stronger capping.
