550 ACUS01 KWNS 030553 SWODY1 SPC AC 030551 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1151 PM CST Tue Dec 02 2025 Valid 031200Z - 041200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms will be possible this evening into tonight across the western Gulf Coast states. Severe storms are not expected. ...DISCUSSION... At mid-levels today, a trough will dig south-southeastward into the Desert Southwest, as flow becomes west-southwesterly across much of the southern U.S. In response, moisture advection will take place across the western Gulf Coast states. By mid to late evening, surface dewpoints are expected to reach the middle to upper 60s F along parts of the Texas Coast. This will result in an increase in instability supporting isolated to scattered thunderstorm development. As warm advection continues into the overnight period, a gradual increase in convective coverage should occur, mainly offshore where instability and low-level flow are forecast to be stronger. Due to this, some cell organization could occur just offshore from the upper Texas Coast after midnight with a few rotating storms possible. Over land, instability is forecast to remain relatively weak, which is expected to limit the severe potential through daybreak on Thursday. ..Broyles/Weinman.. 12/03/2025 $$
