Areas affected...parts of east TX to western LA
Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20
Valid 281225Z - 281430Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...Surface-based supercell potential is expected to rapidly
increase in the late morning to midday. A tornado watch will likely
be needed by 14-15Z.
DISCUSSION...The east TX to western LA warm-moist sector
characterized by 66-71 F surface dew points has roughly reached a
TPL to 20 S CRS to IER line as of 12Z. Pervasive cloud coverage will
slow diabatic surface heating after sunrise, but the rich moisture
profile will only need a few degrees of warming to yield a marked
increase in surface-based convection. This will be favorably timed
with strengthening large-scale ascent and flow fields ahead of a
pronounced shortwave trough near central TX. 06Z ECMWF and recent
HRRR guidance suggest scattered to widespread warm-moist sector
thunderstorms will occur by midday. A strengthening kinematic
profile should foster several to numerous supercells. Tornado
potential will become more favorable with eastern extent in TX to
LA, as hodographs enlarge midday into the afternoon.
