   Areas affected...West-central and Southwest Texas

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 240643Z - 240915Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

   SUMMARY...An isolated large hail threat may continue into the
   overnight period across parts of west-central and southwest Texas.
   Weather watch issuance will be possible.

   DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery shows several small
   thunderstorm clusters extending from north-central Texas
   southwestward toward the Big Bend. The strongest thunderstorms are
   located along a surface trough in southwest Texas along an axis of
   moisture and instability. Within this airmass, the RAP shows MLCAPE
   in the 1000 to 2000 J/kg range. Storm coverage is expected to
   continue as low-level flow and large-scale ascent both gradually
   increase. The latest WSR-88D VWP at San Angelo has 0-6 km shear near
   55 knots with some directional shear in the low to mid-levels. This
   environment may support rotation within the strongest storms, and
   isolated supercells with large hail will be possible. RAP forecast
   soundings at San Angelo have poor mid-level lapse rates suggesting
   any hail threat should be marginal overnight.
