Areas affected...parts of west-central Texas to the middle Rio
Grande Valley
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 041948Z - 042215Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...At least isolated severe storms producing large hail will
be possible from late this afternoon into the evening.
DISCUSSION...Visible imagery shows a CU field near a dryline
extending from northwest TX southwestward toward the Rio Grande.
Winds have veered to west/southwest behind the dryline, with
temperatures currently into the mid 80s F. East of the dryline,
cirrus has generally thinned, with areas of heating in the moist air
mass. A moisture gradient does exist from central into southwest
TX, and is not expected to move much in the near term.
Continued heating as well as deepening of the moist boundary layer
ahead of the dryline may yield several storms by late afternoon,
perhaps aided by a weak midlevel feature moving across southwestern
TX. Little else will be present to support a more organized severe
threat, but trends will be monitored for signs of increasing severe
storm coverage through early evening. Modest instability and
favorably long hodographs should favor mainly hail.
