   Mesoscale Discussion 0442
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0443 PM CDT Wed Apr 22 2020

   Areas affected...southern Oklahoma... far north Texas

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 134...

   Valid 222143Z - 222245Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 134 continues.

   SUMMARY...The risk of tornadoes (potentially strong), large hail,
   and damaging winds will increase eastward within a corridor in
   WW134.

   DISCUSSION...Discrete supercells have developed across the northern
   portions of WW134 along a cold front dryline combination in central
   and southern Oklahoma. A tornado has been observed near Springer,
   Oklahoma already and radar data shows strong low level mesoscylones
   on all of the storms. These cells will move into an environment
   supportive of additional tornadoes with strong low level ESRH of
   200-400 m2/s2. A strong tornado will also be possible with the more
   intense low level mesocyclones.
