   Areas affected...southwest OK

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 234...

   Valid 242349Z - 250045Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 234 continues.

   SUMMARY...The potential exists for severe gusts 65-80mph across
   southwest OK with the evolving bowing segment during the next 1-2
   hours.

   DISCUSSION...A well organized bowing segment (255 degrees at 38kt)
   is moving east across southwest OK in a very moist/unstable airmass.
   KFDR VAD shows 30-35kt flow in the lowest 2 km parallel to the
   orientation of the gust front.  Flow in the mid troposphere
   gradually strengthens to around 50kt from the southwest.  Surface
   conditions show temperatures near 80 degrees F and lower 70s
   dewpoints resulting in about 3000 J/kg MLCAPE.  

   Several deeper thunderstorms cores embedded in the bowing segment
   may potentially yield areas of 65-80mph gusts, as both a combination
   of water loading and rear-inflow jet processes favor more intense
   gusts---especially in areas from the bow apex through the north end
   of the evolving bow.
