   Areas affected...portions of central Texas

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 112315Z - 120045Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

   SUMMARY...The severe threat may increase over the next several
   hours. Multicells and supercells may develop with a severe hail/wind
   threat, and a tornado is also possible.

   DISCUSSION...Cumulus clouds and thunderstorms are increasing across
   the free-warm sector as the boundary layer destabilizes in the wake
   of an earlier MCS. Surface temperatures are warming into the 80s F
   amid upper 60s to lower 70s F dewpoints, contributing to 1000-1500
   J/kg MLCAPE. Mid-level lapse rates are not overly steep (i.e. 6
   C/km), and deep-layer shear remains modest. When also factoring in
   overall weak synoptic forcing for ascent, it is unclear how
   widespread and robust thunderstorms will become. However, several
   diffuse mesoscale boundaries do exist, and continued heating along
   these boundaries may support the development of enough robust storms
   to warrant the consideration of a WW issuance. Large hail and severe
   gusts would be the main severe threats, though a tornado could occur
   with a supercells that manages to anchor to a boundary.
