Mesoscale Discussion 1177

Areas affected...parts of eastern Texas and western Louisiana

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 202043Z - 202315Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated intense thunderstorm development is possible
through 5-7 PM CDT.  It remains unclear how long any storms that do
develop will persist, but they may pose at least a short-lived risk
for very large hail and strong downbursts.  It does not currently
appear that a severe weather watch will be needed, but trends will
continue to be monitored.

DISCUSSION...Attempts at new thunderstorm development are ongoing
near/east-southeast of Longview, TX.  This may be supported by
forcing for ascent within a focused area of weak low-level warm
advection, in the wake of a subtle short wave impulse now digging
across Louisiana coastal areas.

Due to substantial lingering inhibition associated with warm and dry
elevated mixed-layer air, it remains unclear if this convection will
be sustained, particularly based on recent model output.  However,
seasonably moist boundary-layer inflow into the south-southeastward
propagating convection appears characterized by very large CAPE.=20
And deep-layer shear beneath moderate northwesterly mid-level flow
(on the order of 30 kt) may be marginally sufficient to support
supercell structures.=20=20

So, there appears at least some potential for isolated rapid
thunderstorm development and intensification during the next few
hours.  If this occurs, it probably will be accompanied by a risk
for very large hail and occasional strong downbursts as long as it
it maintained.
