    Areas affected...south-central Texas.

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 112...

    Valid 130149Z - 130315Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 112 continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated supercells may continue to pose a risk for large
    hail, strong winds and perhaps a couple of tornadoes this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Regional radar analysis showed two isolated supercells
    have broken away from the main convective line in the vicinity of
    College Station, TX. IR/Echo top trends have remained fairly steady
    state indicating little overall change in convective intensity over
    the preceding hour. While surface temperatures have begun to cool in
    response to the loss of diurnal heating, a fairly strong (30-40 kt
    low-level jet) will continue advecting rich moisture (tds 70F)
    northward ahead of these storms offsetting nocturnal stabilization
    somewhat. Low-level shear (0-1km SRH 150-200 m2/s2) has also
    increased from regional VWPs, suggesting some potential for a couple
    of tornadoes (especially with the lead storm) in addition to large
    hail and strong winds. Observational trends suggest the severe
    threat may linger for a few more hours with these storms given their
    favorable mode and strong updrafts.

    Areas affected...Central Illinois

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 115...

    Valid 050054Z - 050230Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 115 continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated supercell may continue for the next 1-2 hours.

    DISCUSSION...Supercell that evolved along the southwestern flank of
    a more complex cluster of storms over northeast MO has progressed
    into central IL southwest of PIA. This storm has a history of
    producing tornadoes and continues to exhibit severe characteristics
    over eastern Fulton, southern Peoria, and western Tazewell County
    region. This storm appears to have slowed a bit over the last hour
    as it begins to encounter increasingly hostile air mass downstream.
    00z sounding from ILX is strongly capped at 850mb which supports
    weakening updrafts with time. However, strong low-level SRH and
    deep-layer shear may allow this storm to survive a bit longer than
    otherwise would be expected. It's not entirely clear how long this
    supercell will remain severe but it may advance beyond the eastern
    edge of ww115.

    Areas affected...portions of eastern/southeastern Iowa into
    northwestern Illinois

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 117...

    Valid 162147Z - 162315Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 117 continues.

    SUMMARY...The ongoing convective line has evolved into semi-discrete
    supercells which will allow for an increase in the risk for all
    hazards over the next couple of hours. A favorable
    shear/thermodynamic environment may also support a strong (EF-2+)
    tornado.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2140 UTC, regional radar and satellite data
    showed the ongoing convective line in southeastern IA has trended
    towards more semi-discrete elements, especially with southward
    extent, over the last hour. The broader environment remains
    favorable for severe storms with moderate buoyancy and strong
    deep-layer shear established. Low-level shear has also increased
    ahead of the storms with backed surface flow supporting 300-400
    m2/s2 of effective SRH observed from area VADs and SPC mesoanalysis.
    With a more supercellular mode emerging, the potential for stronger mesocyclones within a strong low-level shear environment suggests an
    increasing potential for tornadoes, in addition to the continued
    risk for damaging winds and hail. STP values of 2-3 along with 0-3km
    CAPE of 50-100 J/kg favor strong low-level stretching of vertical
    vorticity. Large low-level hodogaphs may also support the risk for a
    strong (EF-2+) tornado with the longer lived supercells. This
    increasing risk may extended near the Quad Cities and farther east
    into parts of northwestern IL over the next couple of hours.
