CONVECTION MORE NUMEROUS ACROSS N TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON AS ATMOSPHERE HAS BECOME MORE UNSTABLE...2800 J/KG ON KFWD SOUNDING THIS MORNING...WITH A LINGERING SHEAR AXIS AND STRONG MORNING INSOLATION. A FEW STORMS HAVE APPROACHED SEVERE LIMITS...BUT FOR THE MOST PART...THEY SHOULD REMAIN JUST BELOW 60 MPH. HIGH FREEZING LEVEL...INVERTED-V AND WEAK SHEAR SUPPORTS WIND THREAT THE PRIMARY PROBLEM TO DEAL WITH UNTIL SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET. 00Z- 12Z ETA CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE AN EVEN BETTER CHANCE OF SHRA/TSRA TOMORROW WITH A POSSIBLE MCS DEVELOPING AS H5 PVA WORKS INTO THE REGION. WILL GO WITH HIGHER POPS TOMORROW AS THIS LOOKS REASONABLE...ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF CONVECTION AROUND TODAY. ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN ABOUT THE SAME FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...SO WILL KEEP LOW POPS GOING THROUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD.
