AREAS AFFECTED...SOUTH-CENTRAL INTO EAST-CENTRAL TX
CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 230...
VALID 061111Z - 061415Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 230
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...AN INCREASE IN THE TORNADO THREAT IS EXPECTED WITH TIME
THIS MORNING. TORNADO WATCH ISSUANCE IS LIKELY LATER THIS MORNING,
THOUGH TIMING IS UNCERTAIN.
DISCUSSION...SOME INCREASE IN CONVECTION HAS RECENTLY BEEN NOTED
ACROSS PARTS OF THE TX HILL COUNTRY, IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO A SURFACE
WARM FRONT THAT IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTHWARD THROUGH THE MORNING
ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTH-CENTRAL INTO EAST-CENTRAL TX. FAVORABLE
DEEP-LAYER SHEAR AND LOW-LEVEL SRH (AS NOTED ON THE KEWX VWP) WILL
RESULT IN SUPERCELL POTENTIAL THROUGH THE MORNING, ESPECIALLY AS THE
WARM FRONT MOVES NORTHWARD AND RICH LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE CONTINUES TO
SUPPORT MODERATE TO LOCALLY STRONG BUOYANCY.
TIMING OF ADDITIONAL SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT AND MATURATION WITHIN THE
WARM-ADVECTION REGIME REMAINS SOMEWHAT UNCERTAIN, AS DOES THE
POTENTIAL INFLUENCE OF AN ONGOING EASTWARD-MOVING STORM CLUSTER NEAR
SAN ANGELO. HOWEVER, AS THE THREAT FOR SURFACE-BASED SUPERCELLS
INCREASES, A CORRESPONDING INCREASE IN THE TORNADO THREAT IS
EXPECTED WITH TIME THIS MORNING, IN ADDITION TO POTENTIAL FOR LARGE
HAIL AND LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS. A TORNADO WATCH WILL LIKELY BE
NEEDED LATER THIS MORNING, THOUGH TIMING IS UNCERTAIN.
