KLFK-KDWH WITH TAIL END SLOWING INVOF AUSTIN COUNTY. SUB-SYNOPTIC
LOW HAS FORMED AT THE JUNCTION OF THE WARM FRONT/OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
ACROSS COLORADO COUNTY.
TSTMS HAVE BEEN STRENGTHENING VCNTY THE LOW AND ARE LIKELY TO
INCREASE AS THEY MOVE TOWARD THE UPPER TX COAST GIVEN INCREASING
VENTING ALOFT. WHILE THE BOUNDARY LAYER IS NOT QUITE AS UNSTABLE AS
FARTHER SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE KVCT-KCRP AREA...PRESENCE OF HELICITY
RICH ENVIRONMENT VCNTY THE WARM FRONT...LOWERING LFCS AND PROSPECTS
FOR STRONG-SEVERE TSTMS...THE TORNADO THREAT WILL LIKELY
INCREASE...ESPECIALLY FROM THE KPSX-KSGR-KBPT AREA DURING THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS. AS SUCH...ANOTHER SMALL WW MAY BE REQUIRED SHORTLY
TO INCLUDE THE HOUSTON/GALVESTON AREAS.
