   ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
   THE TEXAS COASTAL PLAINS...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated marginally severe storms are possible across parts of the
   Texas Coastal Plains from this evening through tonight into early
   Wednesday morning.

   ...Texas Coastal Plains...
   An upper-level trough will continue to move slowly eastward across
   the southern Plains tonight. Low-level flow ahead of the trough will
   be maintained helping to keep a moist airmass in place along the
   Texas Coast. Although instability will remain weak, surface
   dewpoints will be from the mid 60s to the lower 70s F across the
   Texas Coastal Plains. This combined with strong low-level shear (0-1
   km shear of 25 to 30 kt) and moderate deep-layer shear may be enough
   for a marginal severe threat. If surface-based thunderstorms can
   develop late this evening or tonight, then a marginal tornado threat
   would be possible. A potential for strong gusty winds or hail may
   also develop late this evening or during the overnight period.
