A WW may be needed. DISCUSSION...Water vapor loops show subtle shortwave trough moving across central TX. Lift in advance of this feature will begin affecting southeast TX in the next 1-2 hours, leading to scattered thunderstorm development. A surface warm front is lifting slowly northward across this area, providing the leading edge of near-70F dewpoints and ample CAPE. Strengthening southeasterly low-level winds ahead of the upper trough, combined with the favorable thermodynamic environment, suggest the potential for supercells capable of large hail and a tornado or two. The primary severe threat is likely to evolve farther east and later this afternoon over LA, but the initial storms may pose sufficient risk to require a WW. ...Hart/Guyer.. 03/26/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7fZ1bASEraxlBJCM-v7KLIl96Vv0OLs0-N0UTAvKC1VN2U8IoeCJj-ix2tBUZGcTXmlT0WLzw= iJvFl0q_9hWWyAvyps$ for graphic product...
