Areas affected...Central TX into the ArkLaTex region
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 212006Z - 212200Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...An increase in storm coverage and intensity is expected
late this afternoon into early evening. Watch issuance is possible
for portions of the area.
DISCUSSION...An isolated strong thunderstorm has recently developed
over Mason County, TX, near the intersection of the cold front and a
weak surface trough. Gradually deepening cumulus is noted further
northeast into north TX, southeast OK, and southwest AR, along and
just ahead of the cold front. While large-scale ascent is generally
weak across the region, continued heating/destabilization and
convergence along the front will support an increase in storm
coverage through the remainder of this afternoon into early evening.
This area is generally on the fringe of stronger flow aloft, with
effective shear generally less than 30 kt. However, with very strong
buoyancy (MLCAPE of 3000-4000 K/kg) and steep midlevel lapse rates
in place, intense updrafts will be possible as storms mature,
resulting in a threat for large hail. One or more upscale-growing
clusters may develop due to storm mergers and outflow consolidation, potentially posing an increasing damaging wind risk with time into
the evening. Watch issuance is possible in order to cover these
threats.
