...SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
TODAY...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL COMBINE
WITH INCREASING MOISTURE TO PRODUCE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST TEXAS TODAY.

DUE TO INCREASING WIND SHEAR IN THE ATMOSPHERE...A FEW OF THESE
STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE. THE PRIMARY
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL BE ISOLATED TORNADOES AND DAMAGING
WINDS...WITH A LESSER THREAT OF HAIL. THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT IS
EXPECTED TO BEGIN MID TO LATE MORNING ACROSS THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES
OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS...SPREADING TO THE REST OF THE AREA MIDDAY TO
EARLY AFTERNOON.

IN ADDITION...BRIEF HEAVY DOWNPOURS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE
STORMS TODAY. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL AVERAGE 1/2 TO 1 INCH...WITH
ISOLATED TOTALS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES POSSIBLE. MINOR FLOODING OF
STREETS...FEEDER ROADS...AND OTHER LOW SPOTS WILL BE POSSIBLE.
HOWEVER...THE FAST MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM SHOULD PRECLUDE
SIGNIFICANT FLOODING.

BY TONIGHT...THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE CONFINED MAINLY TO THE SOUTHERN
AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS. THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT
SHOULD END EARLY THIS EVENING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.
