Severe Potential 4/10/12

severe

CAPE 500-2000 depending where you reside
Lift Index 0 to -6
Shear 30 knots + in the greatest area zone
Temperature in the 80s-90s
Dew point 50s to 60s
Lapse rates 6.0-7.0
Low pressure located over NE New Mexico has a stationary front draped to the east south east thru the TX region. Another stationary front is just to the north of that front.
It is these fronts that will continue to be the focus for severe potential.
EHI is relatively low across most of the region but we have included the potential for tornado's where the shear is highest but these would be isolated instances. Main threats are winds and large hail.
