Areas affected...portions of northern into central Texas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 13...
Valid 030220Z - 030345Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 13
continues.
SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across northern parts of
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 13, over central into northern TX.
Damaging gusts appear to be the main threat with a squall-line
moving across the region.
DISCUSSION...A squall line has become established from Wichita to
Kimple Counties in TX and is progressing eastward amid a marginally
sheared and buoyant airmass (i.e. 30+ kts of effective bulk shear
and 500+ J/kg MLCAPE). Surface temperatures have cooled into the
lower 60s F. However, the 00Z FWS observed sounding suggests
convective inhibition is negligible (despite a thin CAPE profile),
with a hodograph characterized by enlarged low-level curvature and
some elongation. As such, isolated damaging gusts may still
accompany the squall line for at least a few more hours. A brief
QLCS tornado also cannot be ruled out with any embedded mesovortices
that can become established within the squall line.
