[matty40s]

Weve already had several events in early January, with considerable loss of life and property, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia and Texas worst hit so far.

Today sees another potential outbreak .

Tomorrow looking strong right now..

"...Middle and upper TX Coast - Daytime... Rain and elevated storms will rapidly expand across central TX during the day, with intensification occurring over south-central into southeast TX as the warm sector develops northward. Storms are forecast to become severe after 18Z along the cold front, and warm front intersection where a surface low will develop. Here, dewpoints are expected to be sufficient for surface-based storm inflow, with MLCAPE to around 1000 J/kg. Shear profiles will be extreme, with effective SRH over 500 m2/s2 and near 800 m2/s2 along the warm front south of the Houston area. Supercells will be likely along the developing line of storms near the cold front, and a favored area for strong tornadoes will be as this lift intersects the warm front. Heating is unlikely given the early moisture return and saturated boundary layer, but the extreme shear warrants an outlook for isolated strong tornadoes.

...Southern LA...MS...AL...FL Panhandle - Evening and Overnight... A squall line is forecast to move across the Sabine River around 00Z, progressing across LA and into MS through 06Z. The degree of severe risk will be closely tied to boundary-layer destabilization, and southern parts of the line across southern LA may weaken with time. Damaging winds appear most likely with much of the line, but southern parts of the line will have better access to more unstable air, with conditional tornado risk. SBCAPE will eventually exceed 500 J/kg, with extreme SRH of 400-800 m2/s2 coincident with positive SBCAPE."
