MD 0164 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 29… FOR EASTERN TEXAS INTO WESTERN LOUISIANA
Mesoscale Discussion 0164 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0826 PM CDT Wed Mar 12 2025 Areas affected...eastern Texas into western Louisiana Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 29... Valid 130126Z - 130230Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 29 continues. SUMMARY...Severe-weather potential may linger locally for another 1 to 2 hours with the ongoing convective band over eastern Texas. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a semi-continuous band of storms advancing eastward across eastern Texas -- and remains largely sub-severe. The convection is moving through the axis of most substantial instability at this time, per latest RAP-based objective analysis, which suggests that lingering severe risk should begin to diminish over the next 1 to 2 hours. This is further supported by evening RAOBs, which -- upon continued/gradual boundary-layer cooling -- suggests an environment becoming increasingly less supportive of any ramp-up on convective intensity/severe potential. ..Goss.. 03/13/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
