    Mesoscale Discussion 1551

    Areas affected...Texas Panhandle/South Plains into
    southwestern/central Oklahoma

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

    Valid 072034Z - 072230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...A few storms are possible from the Texas South Plains into
    central Oklahoma. Discrete storms would pose a risk for large hail,
    though severe winds will likely be the predominant threat. Potential
    for upscale growth into a cluster/linear segment is possible. Trends
    are being monitored for a possible watch later this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Weak warm advection over the cold pool from this
    mornings convection has contributed to the development of elevated
    storms in parts of western and central Oklahoma. The outflow itself
    has modified and MLCAPE has risen to around 2000 J/kg. With
    additional heating and the approach of the cold front, at least
    isolated development is possible within the next few hours. Steep
    mid-level lapse rates and 30-35 kts of effective shear will promote
    supercells capable of large hail and severe winds.

    Farther west, cumulus have been deepening in the Texas South Plains
    within a weak surface trough. A few additional storms are possible
    in this region as well as suggested by some of the latest CAM
    guidance. Large temperature-dewpoint spreads here would likely mean
    a quicker transition to a linear storm mode and a primary risk of
    severe winds.

    With storm coverage uncertain, trends will need to be monitored for
    a possible watch later this afternoon.
