    Mesoscale Discussion 0275

    Areas affected...Parts of the middle/upper Texas Coast

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 281902Z - 282030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Locally damaging gusts and/or a brief tornado could
    accompany storms near the middle/upper Texas coast this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...A small storm cluster has evolved early this afternoon
    near the middle TX coast, immediately in advance of a midlevel
    vorticity maximum embedded within a larger mid/upper trough over
    central/south TX. Modest diurnal heating has allowed MLCAPE to rise
    near 1000 J/kg downstream of this cluster, with some development of
    deep convection also noted closer to Galveston Bay.=20

    While flow in the lowest 3 km has weakened somewhat compared to this
    morning (as noted on the KHGX VWP), modestly favorable low-level
    shear/SRH remains in place across the region. The ongoing storm
    cluster earlier produced a 55 mph gust, and strong to isolated
    severe gusts will remain possible through the afternoon before this
    cluster moves offshore, and a brief tornado also cannot be ruled
    out.
