1255 PM CDT SUN MAY 3 1987

        ...THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE OVER THE HILL COUNTRY...

A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS HAS REMAINED NEARLY STATIONARY FOR THE PAST FEW
HOURS OVER PORTIONS OF THE TEXAS HILL COUNTRY.  THIS LINE EXTENDED
SOUTHWEST FROM NEAR LUFKIN INTO CENTRAL KERR AND REAL COUNTIES OF SOUTH
TEXAS.

DURING THE PAST FEW MINUTES...REPORTS OF PEA TO MARBLE-SIZE HAIL HAVE
BEEN RECEIVED FROM NEAR THE CITY OF HUNT IN KERR COUNTY.  IN ADDITION TO
THE HAIL...IT IS LIKELY THAT ISOLATED VERY HEAVY RAINS ARE OCCURRING
WITHIN SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS.  THE NEARLY STATIONARY CHARACTER OF
THIS LINE OF STORMS ADDS TO THE THREAT OF AT LEAST LOCALIZED FLOODING.

CONDITIONS REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR CONTINUED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG
THIS LINE THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON AS SURFACE HEATING AND ANOTHER
APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE INTERACT.  RESIDENTS SHOULD MONITOR
WEATHER DEVELOPMENTS CLOSELY THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON.
ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS WILL BE BROADCAST OVER NOAA WEATHER RADIO AS
