    Mesoscale Discussion 2290

    Areas affected...Southeast TX

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 301759Z - 302000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...The tornado threat may gradually increase with time
    through the day. Eventual watch issuance is possible, though timing
    is uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...Convection is gradually increasing across parts of
    southeast TX within a low-level warm-advection regime, with recent
    satellite and radar trends indicating an increase in storm intensity
    southwest of Galveston Bay. Mid/upper 60s F dewpoints are gradually
    streaming northward across the region, though widespread cloudiness
    and increasing precipitation will continue to limit heating and
    destabilization through the afternoon.=20

    The timing and extent of surface-based supercell development this
    afternoon remain uncertain, and may continue to be limited by weak
    low-level lapse rates and buoyancy. However, it remains possible
    that consolidation of the stronger ongoing elevated convection may
    result in transient supercell development, and there is also some
    potential for a supercell or two to develop offshore and move inland
    later this afternoon. Favorable low-level and deep-layer shear (as
    noted on the TIAH/THOU VWPs) will support a conditional tornado risk
    if any mature supercells can evolve with time. Tornado watch
    issuance is possible sometime this afternoon, if observational
    trends begin to support imminent supercell potential.
