    Areas affected...TX Coastal Plain into Southeast TX

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 712...

    Valid 250502Z - 250700Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 712
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated hail remains possible across much of the region.
    Some additional severe potential possible over the Middle Texas
    Coast and another watch may be needed.

    DISCUSSION...Complex convective evolution is underway from the TX
    Hill Country into Southeast TX as thunderstorms along the front
    begin to interact with prefrontal cellular/supercellular
    development. This interaction will likely lead to gradually
    diminishing storm strength across much of the region over the next
    hour or two. Until then, cellular prefrontal development across much
    of the region will likely remain strong to occasionally severe,
    supported by steep mid-level lapse rates and moderate deep-layer
    vertical shear.=20

    The only exception is from Karnes/Dewitt Counties northeastward into
    Fayette County, where the strongest storms are currently ongoing.
    Here, downstream buoyancy may be high enough for storms to maintain surface-based character as the frontal interaction occurs, leading
    to upscale growth and a progressive convective line. Increasing
    large-scale ascent associated with the approaching shortwave trough
    could contribute to this evolution as well. The resulting convective
    line would likely push southeastward to the Middle TX Coast with an
    attendant threat for damaging gusts and isolated hail. Given this
    potential, a downstream watch may be needed shortly.
