Isolated severe thunderstorms will be possible on Saturday over southeast Texas and along the Louisiana coast. ....Southeast TX and far southern LA... Primary severe potential should be confined to Saturday morning near the Middle to Upper TX Coast. Widespread convection expected in TX on D2 appears unlikely to clear the coast before 12Z Saturday. The plume of surface-based instability ahead of this activity should be centered from Middle TX Coast into the northwest Gulf, with a gradient of diminishing values to the northeast where surface dew points fall to the lower 60s and upper 50s. Adequate low-level shear should support a threat of localized damaging winds and a brief tornado, before surface-based convection becomes confined to the Gulf towards midday. The intrusion of surface-based instability in LA, outside of the mouth of the MS River Delta, seems unlikely given minimal surface heating, amid widespread rain/clouds during the day. Late afternoon to early evening thunderstorm redevelopment will be possible along the surface trough extending southeast of the primary occluded cyclone over the TX Panhandle. Guidance appears fairly aggressive with the degree of boundary-layer heating in the wake of morning coastal convection. If this indeed occurs, it should be coincident with mid to upper 50s surface dew points and steepening mid-level lapse rates with approach of the thermal trough. This could foster a threat for isolated severe hail, with low confidence in the north-northwest extent of this potential across east TX. ...Grams.. 02/01/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
