DISCUSSION...The mid-afternoon GOES-E visible satellite imagery along with regional radar data shows pockets of slow-moving and heavy showers and thunderstorms developing across portions of southeast TX and into far southwest LA. The activity is focusing along a convergence axis inland of the upper TX coast and out ahead of some weak shortwave energy advancing gradually into eastern TX. MLCAPE values over the region are locally as high as 3500 J/kg with PWs of around 2 inches, and this will be set the stage for some expansion of convection over the next few hours across especially southeast TX which may include the broader Houston metropolitan area. The 12Z HREF and 06Z REFS guidance both support some localized concentrations of slow-moving convective cells going through the late-afternoon and early evening hours. Rainfall rates are expected to be as high as 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour, with some potential for localized storm totals by early this evening to be 3 to 4+ inches. Some low to moderate probabilities (20 to 50 percent) of exceeding the 3-hour FFG are noted in the HREF and REFS guidance suites, and this suggests there may be at least an isolated concern for some flash flooding which in this case would primarily be a concern for the more urbanized locations.
