MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0836

0301 PM CDT SAT MAY 19 2007

AREAS AFFECTED...SWRN TX

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 192001Z - 192100Z

ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS ARE LIKELY ACROSS WRN TX WITH THE MAIN THREAT
LARGE/DAMAGING HAIL.

VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS HEATING CONTINUES OVER SWRN TX WITH DEWPOINTS
HOLDING IN THE MID 50S. GIVEN RELATIVELY COOL AIR ALOFT...MODERATE
INSTABILITY HAS DEVELOPED WITH MLCAPE OF 1000-1500 J/KG. SELY LOW
LEVEL FLOW...ALBEIT WEAK...IS CONTRIBUTING TO EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR
VECTOR MAGNITUDES ON THE ORDER OF 30 KTS. THIS MAY BE SUFFICIENT FOR
A COUPLE LONG LIVED SEVERE CELLS...POSSIBLY WITH SUPERCELL
CHARACTERISTICS. RADAR AS OF 20Z ALREADY SHOWED SEVERE CELLS JUST
ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE W OF HUDSPETH COUNTY. MEAN SELY STORM MOTIONS
COULD KEEP THESE STORMS W OF THE BORDER...HOWEVER...ONLY SLIGHT EWD
UPDRAFT PROPAGATION WOULD BRING THESE CELLS INTO THE U.S. OTHER
CELLS MAY BECOME SEVERE NEAR THE DAVIS MTNS.
