   Areas affected...Southeast TX

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 358...359...

   Valid 311045Z - 311215Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 358, 359
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A strong to isolated severe wind threat should persist
   across southeast Texas as a QLCS shifts southeastward towards the
   Middle to Upper Texas Gulf Coast.

   DISCUSSION...Slowing forward speed to around 35-40 kts, along with
   gradually warming cloud tops suggests the arcing QLCS largely
   remains strong to marginally severe. Surface gusts of 45-60 mph have
   been common along the eastern two-thirds of the QLCS arc. Recent
   HRRR runs insist on a potential secondary surge towards the Middle
   to Upper TX Gulf Coast before it moves offshore. It is plausible
   that this could occur given the presence of a relatively pronounced
   MLCAPE gradient from a plume of large buoyancy still over south TX.
   But recent observational trends suggest this scenario may becoming
   less likely.
