    Mesoscale Discussion 1437

    1247 AM CDT Thu Jul 06 2023

    Areas affected...Portions of northwest TX into the TX Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 060547Z - 060715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Some threat for severe winds may persist as thunderstorms
    spread southeastward. Watch issuance is possible.

    DISCUSSION...A small cluster is ongoing across parts of the western
    TX Panhandle. A recent measured severe gust up to 78 mph was
    recorded at a West TX Mesonet site in Parmer County TX with this
    activity. Some threat for severe/damaging should continue in the
    short term as these thunderstorms spread southeastward towards and
    north of Lubbock. A 25-35 kt south-southeasterly low-level jet may
    aid in thunderstorm maintenance by providing a continued source of
    lift and warm/moist advection. A fairly favorable thermodynamic
    environment is present downstream, with around 1500 J/kg of MUCAPE
    available. Recent radar reflectivity data also show an outflow
    boundary moving southwestward in advance of the cluster. This
    boundary's interaction and impact with the ongoing thunderstorms
    remains unclear. But, there is some chance it may act to undercut
    and weaken new updrafts on the northern flank. Regardless, trends
    are being monitored for possible watch issuance.
