    Mesoscale Discussion 1507
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0459 PM CDT Wed Jul 12 2023

    Areas affected...Parts of northern/eastern MO into a small part of
    western IL

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 122159Z - 122330Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms may intensify into early evening as they move
    southeastward, with a threat of isolated hail and damaging gusts.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have recently developed in northern MO.
    Based on satellite and mesoanalysis data, this activity is clearly
    elevated, and likely will remain so in the short term, given
    substantial MLCINH across the region. However, even for elevated
    convection that is likely based around 800 mb, MUCAPE in excess of
    1500 J/kg and sufficient deep-layer shear (supported by rather
    strong midlevel west-northwesterlies) conditionally favor the
    potential for a few organized storms. If any stronger cells/clusters
    can mature and be sustained into the early evening, some severe
    threat may evolve with this activity. Steep midlevel lapse rates
    will favor some hail potential, while a relatively warm and
    well-mixed boundary layer could support isolated damaging gusts,
    despite the relatively strong MLCINH.

    Uncertainty remains rather high regarding the evolution of this
    convection into the early evening, given its elevated nature and
    relative lack of stronger large-scale ascent across the area. Watch
    issuance is currently considered unlikely, but will become possible
    if organized storms develop or appear imminent.
