   Mesoscale Discussion 0719
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0843 PM CDT Sun May 24 2020

   Areas affected...Northwest Texas...Southeast Texas
   Panhandle...Western Oklahoma

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 219...

   Valid 250143Z - 250345Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 219
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Wind damage and hail threat will continue as a line moves
   eastward across northwest Texas and western Oklahoma. The threat
   should persist for another hour or two but should decrease as an
   outflow boundary moves northwestward across western Oklahoma.
   Although watch issuance is unlikely, a local extension can not be
   ruled out.

   DISCUSSION...Latest radar shows a line of storms from far northwest
   Oklahoma into the eastern Texas Panhandle and then
   south-southeastward into west-central Texas. These storms are
   located along and just west of an axis of strong instability where
   the RAP is analyzing MLCAPE in the 2500 to 3500 J/kg range. This
   line will continue to move into the strong instability over the next
   couple of hours maintaining a wind damage and hail threat. However,
   an outflow boundary is evident on radar imagery, moving
   northwestward across southwestern Oklahoma. This outflow boundary
   will eventually merge with the convective line resulting in a
   decrease in the severe threat later this evening. Although a local
   extension can not be ruled out, new weather watch issuance is not
   expected.
