    Mesoscale Discussion 1544

    Areas affected...Portions of west Texas

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 400...

    Valid 090155Z - 090330Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 400
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Threat for isolated large hail, damaging winds, and
    perhaps a tornado continues this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have increased in coverage across the
    Texas Big Bend in response to the arrival of a mid/upper speed max
    at the base of the larger-scale trough. Ongoing storms have shown
    various modes of evolution, including a pair of counter-rotating
    mesocyclones over Terrell Co. The 00Z DRT sounding suggests robust
    right and left splits may remain possible, given low-level veering
    with height but also unidirectional shear above 700mb.

    Although lapse rates were unimpressive in the DRT sounding,
    favorable effective shear and a moist boundary layer should maintain
    some hail threat with more discrete convection. Furthermore,
    strengthening 700mb flow towards midnight should enhance clockwise
    curvature in area hodographs, which would be favorable for a tornado
    or two.
