   Mesoscale Discussion 0749
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0711 PM CDT Wed May 27 2020

   Areas affected...the San Antonio/New Braunfels area

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 232...

   Valid 280011Z - 280215Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 232
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A severe storm has the potential to strengthen further
   this evening as it travels southeast toward the San Antonio area.
   Very large hail is likely, and damaging winds are also possible.

   DISCUSSION...A supercell producing large hail over Gillespie county
   TX will likely persist as it travels southeastward across the San
   Antonio area, aided by strong deep-layer shear. The storm is
   currently severe, but may strengthen further as it encounters
   stronger instability to the south. 

   Meanwhile, an outflow boundary about 30 miles northeast of San
   Antonio continues to drift southwestward, and may provide added lift
   should the storm intersect. Any upscale growth/bowing may result in
   significant wind gusts. While hodographs are primarily
   straight-line, a brief tornado cannot be ruled out along the
   boundary.
