Mesoscale Discussion 1665
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0629 PM CDT Tue Sep 01 2020
Areas affected...Eastern Texas Panhandle and western Oklahoma
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 482...
Valid 012329Z - 020100Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 482
continues.
SUMMARY...Severe potential is expected to increase somewhat over the
next few hours as storms, including a few supercells, mature. Large
hail and damaging winds will be likely with the strongest storms.
Upscale growth is also possible later this evening with an increased
potential for damaging winds.
DISCUSSION...Several clusters of strong to severe storms are ongoing
this evening across WW482 in the eastern Texas Panhandle and far
western Oklahoma. An uptick in intensity and coverage has been noted
over the last 30 to 45 minutes. Increased lift from the approaching
upper trough and low-level jet will likely continue to support storm
intensity and additional development over the next few hours. Storm
mode remains mixed, but a supercell over Armstrong and Donley
Counties has show some moderate rotation and a prominent hail
signature. Deep layer shear greater than 40 kt and steep mid-level
lapse rates are favorable for large hail production with any
relatively discrete updrafts that can become established. Additional
storm development and some upscale growth may also support an
increased threat for damaging winds later this evening. Cooler air
from previous convection and heavy rainfall over central Oklahoma
should serve as the effective eastern edge for significant severe
weather across WW482.
