Areas affected...Deep South TX

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 212253Z - 220100Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...A couple slow-moving storms may become sustained across a
part of Deep South Texas, with an accompanying threat of large hail
and localized severe gusts.

DISCUSSION...Incipient convective development appears to be underway
over Zapata and Jim Hogg counties, along an earlier differential
heating corridor that is now covered by a cirrus canopy from nearly
stationary thunderstorms over Nuevo Leon. With weak winds in the
lowest 4 km per forecast soundings and CRP VWP data, along with
nebulous large-scale ascent, sustaining organized updrafts is
uncertain. Adequate speed shear does exist in the upper portion of a
very large buoyancy profile. With already sustained convection over
Nuevo Leon unlikely to spread across the border in the next few
hours, the severe threat in Deep South TX will probably remain
localized through at least mid-evening. Still, any sustained
convection will pose a threat for large hail and downbursts given
the degree of instability.
