VALID 291011Z - 291215Z
INCREASING CONVECTIVE COVERAGE AND INTENSITY IS EXPECTED ACROSS THIS
REGION THROUGH MIDMORNING...WITH OCCASIONAL LARGE HAIL POSSIBLE.
SFC MESOANALYSIS SHOWS WARM FRONT MOVING SLOWLY NWD TOWARD I-10
CORRIDOR BETWEEN JCT-FST...BENEATH 25-35 KT LLJ. RELATED SFC THETAE
ADVECTION AND MOIST ADVECTION ABOVE SFC WILL BOOST BUOYANCY FROM
S-N...SUPPORTING BOTH TSTMS MOVING NWD FROM MEX AND ACTIVITY
DEVELOPING N OF RIO GRANDE. THIS REGION WILL REMAIN IN ZONE OF
STRONG UPPER LEVEL DIFLUENCE NE OF UPPER LOW LOCATED INVOF
SONORA/CHIHUAHUA BORDER. WITH LITTLE MOVEMENT EXPECTED OF UPPER
VORTEX DURING NEXT SEVERAL HOURS...MID/UPPER LEVEL WINDS AND
THEREFORE DEEP-LAYER BULK SHEAR WILL WEAKEN SUBSTANTIALLY WITH NWD
EXTENT. THIS FACTOR...ALONG WITH DIMINISHING INSTABILITY NWD ACROSS
PERMIAN BASIN TOWARD S PLAINS...WILL LIMIT SVR POTENTIAL NEAR AND N
OF I-20 THROUGH MIDMORNING. EXPECT SFC-BASED EFFECTIVE INFLOW
PARCELS WITH MLCAPES 1000-1500 J/KG ALONG RIO GRANDE...DROPPING TO
LESS THAN 500 J/KG ALONG WARM FRONT...THOUGH ELEVATED MUCAPES
500-1000 J/G MAY SUSTAIN ACTIVITY FOR 50-80 NM N OF WARM FRONT
