EVENT...CONTINUED SCATTERED AREAS OF TSTORMS FROM SW TO NE TX
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING IS SLOWLY
WEAKENING MUCH OF THE WIDELY SCATTERED CNVTN THAT HAS CAUSED FLOODING
PROBLEMS ACROSS A LARGE PART OF TX TDY. UPPER LVL LOW APPEARS TO BE INVOF
EDWARDS/SUTTON/KIMBLE COUNTIES PER RECENT WV IMAGERY AND STLT WINDS. LINE
OF CELLS HAS FORMED ON SERN SIDE OF THIS VORT FROM SRN MAVERICK EWD
ACROSS DIMMIT AND NE TO MEDINA/W BEXAR COUNTIES. AM MOSTLY CONCERNED FOR
CELLS IN FRIO/MEDINA AND EVENTUALLY LA SALLE AS W-E ORIENTED CELLS ARE
MOVING QUICKLY SWD CAUSING THE LINE TO BE STRETCHED N-S THROUGH THESE
COUNTIES. ALSO OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS SHOWS NOSE OF CURRENT SFC THETA-E AXIS
ALIGNED WITH THE SRN CELLS. WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR POSSIBLE DVLPT OF
CELLS SWD THROUGH WEBB COUNTY INTO MX ON REMAINING OUTFLOW FROM COASTAL
MCS THAT HAS JUST ENHANCED THE TWO CELLS SW OF LRD RECENTLY. LATEST VIS
IMAGE SHOWS ENHANCEMENT OF CELL OVER SE DIMMIT BUILDING SWD AS OF 0015Z.
.
FOR THE NERN PART OF THE STATE..MOD UPPER LVL DVG IS PRESENT..MORE NOW
FROM WEAK COASTAL JET THAT HAS FORMED RATHER THAN EARLIER DVG FROM UPPER
LOW IN S TX. BEST DVG AREA SEEMS TO BE JUST E/SE OF DAL. SCT CNVTN SHOULD
CONTINUE IN THIS AREA GRADUALLY WEAKENING OVER THE NEXT FEW HRS. SEE
