Areas affected...Portions of central Texas

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

Valid 130032Z - 130230Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Large hail (isolated up to 2 inches) and severe wind gusts
are possible into mid evening with storms in central Texas. A watch
is not anticipated given limited forcing and storm coverage.

DISCUSSION...Storms in the vicinity of San Saba and Mills Counties
have intensified over the last hour. These storms are forming along
the western edge of rain-cooled air from convection farther east.
This evening's observed soundings from the region indicate steep
mid-level lapse rates (7.5-8 C/km). While mid-level winds will tend
to weaken with time, storms will remain at least periodically
organized into the evening. Given the relatively straight
hodographs, storm splits can be expected. The greatest potential for
severe weather (particularly large hail) will be from left-moving
cells. These storms will maintain warm/moist inflow as they move north-northeast away from the cooler air. How long storms can remain
strong to severe is not certain given lack of large-scale forcing.
