AREAS AFFECTED...MUCH OF CENTRAL TEXAS
CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 196...197...
VALID 102315Z - 110215Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 196, 197
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...SEVERE STORMS MOVING INTO CENTRAL TEXAS CONTINUE TO
PRODUCE LARGE HAIL AND A FEW DAMAGING GUSTS. A TRANSITION TO
DAMAGING WIND THREAT IS EXPECTED THIS EVENING.
DISCUSSION...SUBSTANTIAL STORM CLUSTERS PERSIST NEAR THE
SOUTHWARD-MOVING COLD FRONT, WITH VERY LARGE HAIL REPORTED IN
RUNNELS COUNTY. ANOTHER LARGE STORM COMPLEX WAS LOCATED OVER
HAMILTON COUNTY AS OF 23Z. THE AIR MASS REMAINS VERY MOIST AND
UNSTABLE, AND WILL CONTINUE TO FAVOR SOUTHEASTWARD PROPAGATION AS
THE COLD FRONT PUSHES SOUTH.
DEEP-LAYER SHEAR IS GENERALLY NEAR 35 KT AND BOUNDARY-PARALLEL, AND
LOW-LEVEL SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS ARE NOT PARTICULARLY STRONG. HOWEVER,
MERGING STORMS AND OUTFLOWS MAY EVENTUALLY SUPPORT FORWARD
ACCELERATION ACROSS MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF THE WARM SECTOR LATE
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT, WITH ATTENDANT INCREASE IN
STORM-RELATIVE INFLOW.
PORTIONS OF EAST-CENTRAL INTO SOUTHEAST TX MAY REQUIRE A WATCH LATER
THIS EVENING, SHOULD THE EXISTING SEVERE ACTIVITY DEVELOP BEYOND THE
EASTERN BOUNDARIES OF WATCHES 196/197.
