    Areas affected...portions of central Texas

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 149...

    Valid 200127Z - 200300Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 149 continues.

    SUMMARY...An uptick in the tornado threat may be underway over
    southern portions of Tornado Watch 149. The extent of the tornado
    threat is dependent on further intensification of warm-sector
    supercells. A strong tornado is possible.

    DISCUSSION...Multiple small supercells have gradually organized over
    the past couple of hours over portions of central TX within the warm
    sector. KFWS NEXRAD data shows a likely low-level mesocyclone
    becoming established with a more dominant supercell in Erath County.
    These storms are intensifying amid a moist and unstable
    surface-based airmass, along the western periphery of an
    intensifying low-level jet. Given strong low-level shear in place,
    any further intensification with these storms may support tornado
    development. Some of the latest WoFs guidance also indicates the
    potential for increased low-level rotation with these storms over
    the next few hours.
