Severe wind and hail are the main threats, though a tornado could also occur. DISCUSSION...MRMS mosaic radar imagery depicts a deepening supercell updraft across Lee County, TX, with 40 dBZ echoes exceeding 50 kft and MESH exceeding 1.5 inches. KGRK radar data shows this supercell deviating to the right, toward a surface airmass with mid to upper 70s/60s F temperatures/dewpoints and SBCAPE approaching 1000 J/kg. It is possible that this currently elevated supercell may become surface-based, allowing for this storm to ingest more buoyant parcels and favorable low-level shear (evident via curved low-level hodographs on the EWX and GRK VADs). As such, a severe hail/gust threat may be increasing, and a tornado cannot be ruled out. ...Squitieri/Gleason.. 05/05/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_fHT4qi68m49kztHKTqe7tTluAS62rrXfzwSrYtXnRUXw7ueD4fzJd2FcJlYfs8WGk-WZnZpm= S1P1sP6cbA_Pr53KZI$ for graphic product...
