    Areas affected...Central NC...Central/Northern VA

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 271001Z - 271200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Increasing thunderstorm coverage is anticipated over the
    next few hours. A few supercells may develop, with damaging wind
    gusts and tornadoes possible.

    DISCUSSION...Increasing forcing for ascent is expected to gradually
    spread eastward as the upper low over the Lower OH Valley progresses
    eastward. Ongoing moisture advection across the region will help
    destabilize the air mass from south to north over the next few
    hours. This destabilization coupled with the increasing forcing for
    ascent should lead to an increase in thunderstorm coverage over the
    next several hours. Area VAD profiles and mesoanalysis also show a
    35 kt low-level jet (in addition to moderate mid-level flow)
    extending across the region.

    A predominantly shallow, multicellular mode is anticipated, but,
    given the moderate shear, a few supercells are also possible.
    Primary threat with any of these storms would be damaging downburst
    winds, but a few tornadoes are possible as well. As a result, a
    Tornado Watch will likely be needed over portions of the region.

    Areas affected...Deep South Texas

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

    Valid 032318Z - 040115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms spreading into the lower Rio Grande Valley may
    gradually organize and eventually pose increasing risk for strong to
    severe surface gusts while progressing toward lower Texas coastal
    areas through 7-9 PM CDT.

    DISCUSSION...Forcing for ascent associated with a subtle short wave
    impulse digging toward the lower Rio Grande Valley has likely
    contributed to the widespread ongoing vigorous thunderstorm
    development. Storms initiated across the higher terrain to the west
    of the river, where seasonably moist (upper 60s/lower 70s F surface
    dew points) southeasterly upslope flow has contributed to large
    mixed-layer CAPE in the presence of steep lapse rates.=20=20

    While light westerly ambient deep-layer mean flow has contributed to
    advection off the higher terrain, a somewhat less moist and more
    strongly capped environment with more modest CAPE prevails in lower
    elevations, across the Rio Grande River through much of Deep South
    Texas. Still, aided by pronounced veering of the wind fields in
    lower through mid-levels, deep-layer shear is moderate to strong.=20
    Coupled with the mid-level forcing for ascent, it is possible that
    convection will continue to overcome the inhibition, and gradually
    organize during the next few hours, particularly as strengthening
    surface cold pools begin to consolidate. If/when this occurs, a
    localized severe hail/downburst threat may transition to potential
    for more widespread strong to severe gusts as activity progresses
    toward lower Texas coastal areas into this evening.
