    Mesoscale Discussion 1046
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0329 PM CDT Wed Jun 14 2023

    Areas affected...portions of north-central and northeast Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 142029Z - 142200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Recovering air mass near and along an outflow boundary may
    serve a focus for storm development late this afternoon. Extreme
    buoyancy and strong vertical shear will likely support splitting
    supercells with a risk for large to giant hail and damaging winds.

    DISCUSSION...Across portions of north-central and northeastern TX,
    afternoon visible imagery showed deepening cumulus towers along a
    remnant outflow boundary from previous convection. As the boundary
    has modified through the afternoon, extreme instability has
    developed (5000 J/kg of MLCAPE) owing to unusually steep mid-level
    lapse rates and mid 70s F surface dewpoints. The strong buoyancy
    colocated with 60-70 kt of effective shear observed from the 18z FTW
    sounding is supportive of potentially intense splitting supercells.
    Given the favorable storm mode and extreme cape/shear space, giant
    hail (3+ in) hail will be possible with the most intense storms
    across north-central and northeast TX. Depending on storm coverage,
    some upscale growth later this evening into one or more organized
    bowing clusters may also favor a risk for damaging wind gusts. A new
    Severe Thunderstorm watch will likely be needed this afternoon.
