WW is not anticipated at this time, due to what appears likely to remain isolated coverage. DISCUSSION...Latest radar and visible satellite loops show isolated convection evolving across portions of central Texas, from the Edwards Plateau to the Hill Country region. Meanwhile, a composite outflow/sea-breeze boundary is evident in the visible satellite loop, surging westward from coastal convection. Within the zone delineated by the developing storms to the west, and the boundary moving inland, an axis of moderate instability (1500 to 2000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE) is noted, on the southern/western side of the primary surface cold front. Given these factors, it would appear that storms will be sustained over the next few hours, with some additional development of new storms likely. With modest but sufficient shear (0-6km shear near 30 kt) indicated across the area to support organized/rotating storms (and weak supercell characteristics noted in stronger/ongoing storms), hail and gusty/damaging winds will be possible with the most intense updrafts. At this time, isolated storm coverage that is expected, would suggest that WW issuance may not be required. However, we will continue to monitor development, for signs of greater-than-anticipated coverage of stronger storms, which could warrant reconsideration of the need to consider a watch. ...Goss/Hart.. 09/14/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!96o4NzqKLfn8gDOZNsmNp1ebikzXlkvB4u-K70wJ_Nm8xsav0IPUo8JYasdaZQkwKDGza86c9= MOxOfjvDbrGDZu2iJM$ for graphic product...
