Storms Coming...

* Continuing to watch a potential severe weather threat evolve for late tonight into the day tomorrow. A deep upper level trough is moving slowly through the southern Plains, with a surface low getting going underneath it. This upper level low will interact with marginally unstable air to create a line of severe thunderstorms. These storms will roll through here during the day tomorrow.

* The SPC has placed us under yet another "Moderate" risk of severe weather. I really believe the worst of it will be along and south of I-20, perhaps even further south. Higher dewpoints and greater instability will be present as you go south towards the Gulf Coast, so the threat of severe weather is greater there. Here's the SPC Outlook for tomorrow:

SPC Day 2 Outlook for Wednesday

* Prime time of concern will be throughout the day tomorrow. There is a chance a few supercells could get going out in front of the line early tomorrow, with a much greater risk of severe thunderstorms in the form of a squall line tomorrow afternoon.

* I have a number of conference calls and IM conferences this afternoon, starting with NWS Mobile in about 15 minutes. I will post an update later after we finish up with our conferences.
