    Areas affected...Eastern NC...Southeast VA

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely

    Valid 160107Z - 160230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Trends will be monitored for a Tornado Watch downstream of
    the ongoing convective line.

    DISCUSSION...Current storm tracks suggest the ongoing convective
    line will reach the edge of Tornado Watch 53 or 54 around 0230Z. The
    southern portion of the line has shown a modest increase in forward
    progression so there is some potential that the increased forward
    speed brings the line to the edge of Tornado Watch 53 before 0230Z.

    Continued theta-e advection is expected to offset nocturnal
    stabilization somewhat with much of the region remaining weakly
    unstable. At the same time, low-level wind fields will strengthen,
    enlarging hodographs and creating a kinematic environment that is
    very supportive of low-level rotation. There is some potential for
    the convective line to be outflow dominant by the time it reaches
    eastern NC/southeast VA but overall convective evolution remains
    uncertain. However, given the favorable kinematic fields, trends
    will be monitored closely and a downstream tornado watch will likely
    be needed soon.

    Areas affected...portions of central/southern Texas toward the Upper
    Texas Coast vicinity

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 40...

    Valid 071141Z - 071315Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 40
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Damaging winds, hail and possibly tornado or two are
    expected through the morning hours from parts of central/southern
    Texas toward the Upper Texas Coast vicinity. A new watch will be
    needed downstream of WW 40 in the next hour or two.

    DISCUSSION...A bowing line of convection is currently tracking
    east/northeast across portions of the Texas Hill Country into
    southern Texas. This line was moving roughly along and south of quasi-stationary front stretching from near San Antonio
    northeastward into northern LA. Strong ascent and weak inhibition
    across the warm sector has lead to multiple areas of convection
    developing ahead of the bowing line as well as in the vicinity of
    surface boundary further to the northeast. This has resulted in a
    somewhat messy evolution initially this morning. However, latest
    surface observation at UVA showed a temperature of 58 degrees and
    COT was 62 degrees. This suggests that a stronger cold pool is
    becoming better established. Furthermore, latest VWP from the CRP
    88-D showed increasing 3-6km winds of around 50 kt. All of this
    suggests that intensification of the line should occur through the
    morning hours and a the rear inflow jet strengthens. As such, a
    downstream watch will likely be needed by around 13z.

    In addition to damaging winds and hail, at least a low-end tornado
    threat will exist. Low level shear is not overly impressive, but
    backed low level flow and the presence of the surface boundary will
    provide enough focus for both mesovortex formation along the line as
    well as for rotating updrafts in any discrete warm sector cells
    ahead of the line.
