Mesoscale Discussion 0022
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0849 PM CST Fri Jan 10 2020
Areas affected...east Texas
Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely
Valid 110249Z - 110445Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent
SUMMARY...A tornado watch downstream of WW0004 will be needed across
portions of east Texas in the next hour. Tornadoes and damaging
winds will be the main severe threats.
DISCUSSION...A line of thunderstorms with a couple of embedded
supercells is stretching south-north across central Texas. This line
of storms is expected to continue and further mature into a squall
line with plenty of instability and shear downstream. Additionally,
the low-level jet, which is already 40-50+ knots per mesoanalysis
and observed 00z soundings, will strengthen overnight. While the
flow will be mostly parallel to the line, the strong flow/forcing
will still result in a squall line moving eastward with cell motion
moving more to the northeast. Damaging wind gusts and QLCS tornadoes
are the main severe threat. A couple of discrete cells may form
ahead of this line, which would increase the tornado threat.
