WW MAY BE NEEDED ACROSS PART OF E TX INTO NRN LA AND SRN AR.

MOISTURE CONTINUES TO RETURN NWD WITH SLY LOW LEVEL FLOW REGIME
ACROSS E TX INTO LA/SRN AR WITH SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE MID 50S TO
AROUND 60. THIS MOISTENING BENEATH STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES /8+
C/KM/ PER 00Z SHV SOUNDING IS AIDING IN GRADUAL DESTABILIZATION WITH
TIME. THIS TREND IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST AS LLJ STRENGTHENS INTO
LA/AR THIS EVENING. WEAK CAP EVIDENT YET ON THE 00Z SHV SOUNDING

SCALE ASCENT ATTENDANT TO OK/N TX IMPULSE MOVING EWD. AS THIS
PROCESS OCCURS...NEW TSTM DEVELOPMENT WILL BE LIKELY. MARGINAL TO
MODERATE INSTABILITY MAY TEMPER THE NUMBER OF STRONGER TO SEVERE
STORMS...BUT EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR OF 40-50 KT WILL REMAIN SUPPORTIVE
FOR ORGANIZED STORMS.
