Areas affected...Parts of Deep South Texas
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 081258Z - 081430Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent
SUMMARY...Strong to locally severe storm development is possible
this morning.
DISCUSSION...Very rich low-level moisture remains in place across
Deep South TX this morning, with MLCAPE above 2500 J/kg and minimal
MLCINH already noted on regional 12Z soundings and recent
mesoanalyses. With the primary mid/upper-level shortwave trough
still well to the west, coverage and intensity of morning convection
across the region is uncertain. However, showers have recently
developed within a zone of weak surface confluence across Cameron
County, and some guidance depicts development of deep convection
within this area later this morning.=20
If deep convection can initiate and be sustained this morning,
strong instability and favorable deep-layer shear will support
supercell potential, with an attendant threat of large hail, locally
damaging gusts, and possibly a tornado. Given the conditionality of
the morning threat, the short-term need for watch issuance is
uncertain. Additional rounds of strong to severe storms will be
possible later today, with eventual watch issuance possible.
