Areas affected...the southern Texas Coastal Plain into Deep South
Texas

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 236...

Valid 070300Z - 070500Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 236
continues.

SUMMARY...The threat for severe hail will continue through at least
04 UTC along parts of the southern Texas Coastal Plain and into Deep
South Texas.

DISCUSSION...Isolated supercells along the TX Coastal Plain and into
parts of Deep South TX have shown periods of vigorous
intensification followed by rapid weakening. This is likely due to
storm propagation along and just behind the convectively-reinforced
cold front/outflow boundary that continues to push towards the
coast. Recent radar analysis from KCRP shows that this boundary
likely extends to at least 2 km above radar level, which should be
near the mixed-layer LFC based on a modified 00 UTC CRP sounding and
recent forecast soundings. Consequently, re-intensification of
ongoing convection and/or new convective development appears
possible along the boundary as near-surface parcels are lifted close
to their LFC. Even with modulated nocturnal cooling, MLCAPE remains
between 3500-4000 J/kg, which when combined with the strongly
sheared environment (~50 knots of 0-6 km shear sampled by KCRP's
VWP) will continue to promote a large to very large hail threat with
the more robust supercells. Hail reports up to 2.0 inches have been
noted over the past hour, but the convective environment is
supportive of supercells capable of producing hail between 2.0 to
3.0 inches in diameter. This threat should persist for at least the
next hour or so before the front/outflow reaches the coast.
