    Areas affected...pars of the Rio Grande Valley in southern Texas

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 241...

    Valid 082225Z - 090000Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 241
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Scattered severe storms, including a few supercells
    persist across the Watch area. Hail and isolated damaging winds
    remain likely this evening.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2220 UTC, scattered strong to severe storms were
    ongoing across much of the Rio Grande Valley and south TX. Several
    supercells were noted across Zapata/Jim Hogg and Dimmit Counties.
    The environment ahead of these storms, and additional storms
    crossing the border, remains broadly favorable for severe weather
    with 40-50 kt of effective shear and 2000 J/kg of MLCAPE. Hail
    remains the primary severe risk with steep mid-level lapse rates and
    the supercell mode. However, some clustering has been noted along
    the diffuse front farther north. This should continue into the
    evening as noted by some CAMS. This may support a greater risk for
    damaging winds across the Rio Grande Valley and south TX into
    tonight. Given the ongoing storms, and additional development
    crossing the border through the next few hours, the severe risk will
    continue across much of WW241.
