Mesoscale Discussion 0714
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0639 PM CDT Sun May 24 2020
Areas affected...West Texas...Texas Panhandle and Western Oklahoma
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 219...
Valid 242339Z - 250145Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 219
continues.
SUMMARY...A severe threat will continue from the eastern Texas
Panhandle southward into west Texas through the early and mid
evening. The threat should eventually affect far western Oklahoma
and the Low Rolling Plains.
DISCUSSION...Latest radar shows a line of strong to severe
thunderstorms with a couple gaps in the line in the southern Texas
Panhandle. To the east of this line of storms, a moist airmass is in
place with surface dewpoints in the 60s F. The RAP is showing MLCAPE
value now in the 3000 to 3500 J/kg range from the Low Rolling Plains
northeastward in the southeast Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma.
Regional WSR-88D VWPs generally have 0-6 km shear in the 25 to 35 kt
range suggesting that most of the storms will remain multicellar.
This combined with 700-500 mb lapse rates in the 8.0 to 8.50 C/km
range suggests that multicells should be capable of isolated large
hail. The stronger parts of the line will also be associated with
strong wind gusts, some that could reach severe limits.
