Areas affected...OK Panhandle...northern TX Panhandle
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 282352Z - 290115Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...A squall line capable of isolated severe gusts (60-75 mph)
is becoming more likely during the evening. Large hail is possible
with the discrete supercells ahead of the line.
DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a developing squall line from far
northeast NM east-northeastward into far southwest KS. Visible
satellite imagery shows a residual outflow boundary arcing from the
TX Low Rolling Plains northwestward to the western part of the TX
Panhandle and extending northward to the CO/KS/OK border.=20=20
Surface observations indicate relatively moist conditions with lower
60s deg F dewpoints and temperatures in the mid 70s. RAP forecast
soundings for current surface conditions indicate a very unstable
airmass is in place across the TX Panhandle with MLCAPE around 2500
J/kg. Although deep-layer shear is marginal for supercells, it is
more than adequate for organized storm structures. The steep
700-500 mb lapse rates in excess of 8 deg C/km will aid in longevity
of the storm cluster despite an only modest LLJ increase this
evening. A large hail threat will accompany any discrete updrafts
before additional storm congealing occurs and severe gusts become
the main threat.
