    Areas affected...northeast Texas...far southeast Oklahoma...and
    southwest Arkansas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 281746Z - 281945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...The thunderstorm threat should increase over the next
    couple of hours. The overall environment will support a risk of
    small hail. A watch is not currently expected.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms are expected to develop in the next 1-2
    hours across portions of northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma as
    large-scale ascent continues to increase. This region is located
    beneath the right-exit region of 120-knot upper-level jet
    (subsident) but also in a zone of increasing/yet modest warm-air
    advection near 700-millibars owing to isentropic flow across a
    surface warm front across east Texas. Additional forcing for ascent
    will come from a seasonably strong surface cold front surging
    southeast across the region.

    Forecast soundings to the north of this warm front suggest elevated
    instability on the order of 500-1000 J/kg and long hodographs will
    be available to any thunderstorm that develops. Thus, despite only
    modest mid-level lapse rates, the degree of instability and
    strengthening kinematic fields will support the potential of small
    hail. Gusty winds associated with the cold front passage will also
    be possible.

    Given the limited nature of any potential severe risk, a watch is
    not anticipated across this area.
