    Areas affected...northeast into central and southwest OK...northwest

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 670...

    Valid 052247Z - 060045Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 670
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated to widely scattered severe gusts are possible
    this evening. Peak gusts 70-80 mph are forecast through 8pm CDT (01
    UTC).

    DISCUSSION...Visible-satellite and lightning data shows developing thunderstorms near and immediately north of the I-44 corridor from
    northeast OK through central OK and into adjacent parts of southwest OK/northwest part of north TX. Surface analysis shows a
    southward-moving front where the developing thunderstorms are
    located. Hot temperatures are noted, with in the lower 100s from TX northeastward into central OK and upper 90s in a more moisture-rich
    airmass over northeast OK. A plume of very steep 0-3 km lapse rates
    (9+ deg C/km) has developed from northwest TX into central OK and PW
    increases from west to east across the discussion area (1.4 to 1.8
    inches). The inverted-v profiles strongly favor severe downdrafts
    once mature thunderstorm cores develop. Strong evaporative cooling
    will be the primary process for severe gusts from north TX into
    central OK. Model guidance indicates greater storm coverage (a
    broken band of storms) will eventually evolve this evening across
    northeast OK and move into eastern OK and northwest AR. The risk
    for severe gusts will likely persist with this activity while the
    risk over central OK southwestward diminishes towards the late
    evening.
