    Mesoscale Discussion 1922
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

    Areas affected...The Red River Valley region

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

    Valid 092220Z - 100015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms developing along the Red River Valley will
    pose a risk for severe winds over the next several hours. Watch
    issuance is possible.

    DISCUSSION...Robust convective initiation is underway along a
    surface trough draped from eastern OK into north/northwest TX. 12
    UTC soundings from OUN and FWD sampled high PWAT values generally
    near 1.75 inches, but recent surface observations are showing high
    dewpoint depressions on the order of 40-50 F. This suggests that the
    low-level thermodynamic environment is very deeply mixed and should
    support accelerating downdrafts. A mix of wet/dry downbursts appear
    possible with an attendant risk for severe winds. Trends will be
    monitored, and watch issuance is possible if it becomes evident the
    severe threat will be sufficiently widespread and persistent.
