NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1213 PM CST TUE NOV 23 2010

AREAS AFFECTED...SE TX/CENTRAL LA AND MS

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 231813Z - 232015Z

ISOLATED WARM SECTOR STORMS WILL PERSIST THIS AFTERNOON FROM SE TX
ENEWD INTO CENTRAL MS...BUT SEVERE STORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED.

WARM SECTOR CONVECTION...INCLUDING ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS...IS
ONGOING GENERALLY N OF I-10 ACROSS SE TX AND SW LA...WITH OTHER
PRE-FRONTAL STORMS FARTHER ENE INTO CENTRAL MS. THIS CONVECTION HAS
FORMED IN A ZONE OF MINIMAL CONVECTIVE INHIBITION...BUT IS WEAKLY
FORCED AND SHOULD REMAIN ISOLATED IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
DEEP-LAYER VERTICAL SHEAR IS MARGINALLY FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS
ALONG THE SRN FRINGE OF THE 30+ KT MIDLEVEL FLOW...IN AN ENVIRONMENT
WITH MLCAPE NEAR 1000 J/KG. HOWEVER...LOW-LEVEL FLOW IS RELATIVELY
WEAK ACROSS THIS AREA...AND MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE POOR. THE NET
RESULT WILL BE AN ENVIRONMENT SUPPORTIVE OF A FEW STORMS WITH WEAK
ROTATION...BUT LITTLE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SEVERE WEATHER.
