Watch not expected. DISCUSSION...Diurnal heating of a moist boundary layer (upper 60s/lower 70s surface dewpoints) beneath modestly steep midlevel lapse rates (per latest MSY ACARS sounding) is supporting isolated to widely scattered thunderstorm development along a stationary boundary draped across LA this afternoon/early evening. Regional VWP data along with the aforementioned ACARS sounding indicate a long/mostly straight mid/upper-level hodograph (characterized by 50-55 kt effective shear) and weakly veering low-level flow. Given this parameter space and weak large-scale ascent over the area, a couple discrete/semi-discrete supercell structures capable of marginally severe hail and/or a damaging gust or two are possible this afternoon/early evening. While low-level flow could strengthen into this evening ahead of an approaching midlevel trough crossing the central Plains, the overall severe threat appears too marginal/localized for a watch. ...Weinman/Edwards.. 03/27/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4i3kTIvFagFnjtkjVsIaayMVYwItR1XOjRHGmI6kgy9XleDK6Q19ULNFz_3HaMoyj-y_win94= qMWOWTsTEvXni4Zou4$ for graphic product...
