    Areas affected...Upper Texas Coast vicinity

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 241448Z - 241615Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Locally strong gusts may occur across portions of the
    Upper Texas Coast the next couple of hours.

    DISCUSSION...A band of strong storms is lifting northward near the
    Upper Texas Coast this morning at around 40 kt. Latest radar data
    indicates a pocket of 45-55 kt velocities around 1-2 kft. Deep-layer
    flow is rather weak, but some local enhancement is likely occurring
    as this activity is developing on the east side of an MCV/lead
    shortwave impulse shifting east toward the Middle Texas Coast.
    Surface dewpoints in the low 70s are supporting a corridor of
    1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE ahead of the line of convection. However, low
    and mid-level lapse rates remain weak, while DCAPE values are less
    than 1000 J/kg. Forecast RAP soundings do indicate a modest dry
    layer just above the surface, which could aid in stronger outflow as
    the convection advances quickly northward. Locally strong gusts may
    accompany this activity the remainder of the morning, but overall
    severe threat is expected to remain marginal and a watch is not
    expected at this time.

    Areas affected...Southeast WY...Eastern CO...Northeast NM

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

    Valid 301910Z - 302115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe gusts are possible across the
    central and southern High Plains this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Visible satellite imagery has shown cumulus building
    across the higher terrain of central CO, north-central NM, and
    south-central WY from late morning until now. Lightning has recently
    been observed in a few areas, indicating these cumulus have now
    reached enough depth for lightning production. This overall trend of
    gradually deepening cumulus is expected to continue, resulting in
    progressively increasing thunderstorm coverage. Westerly mean flow
    will take these currently developing storms into the lower
    elevations of the southern and central High Plains.=20

    The air mass over these lower elevations is already deeply mixed,
    with this mixing expected to persist through the afternoon. Despite
    this deep mixing, gradually increasing mid-level moisture will help
    support modest buoyancy. As a result, storms will likely persist as
    they move into this environment, with the high cloud bases and deep
    mixing contributing to strong outflows and the potential for some
    severe wind gusts. Overall severe coverage is expected to be
    isolated, with the severe potential increasing farther east later
    this evening as this storms and associated outflow interact with the
    more buoyant air mass over that region. A watch will eventually be
    needed as this activity moves east, but timing is uncertain.
