THE AREA. 00Z CRP SOUNDING SHOWED VERY STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES

30 KNOT LOW LEVEL FLOW AND 60 KNOTS AT 50H. A WEAK COASTAL TROUGH

KEEP THE FOCUS FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT OVER THIS REGION FOR
THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES WILL CONTINUE OVER THE
NORTHERN COASTAL BEND INTO THE VICTORIA CROSSROADS THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE EVENING HOURS UNTIL THE FRONT...MOVING INTO THE
NORTHWEST COUNTIES AT THIS TIME...MOVES INTO THE COASTAL WATERS
AFTER 06Z. WILL UPDATE FORECAST TO BUMP UP POPS AND INCLUDE SEVERE
THREAT. SPC HAS JUST ISSUED A TORNADO WATCH FOR THE NORTHEAST PART
