Areas affected...The Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles...and the Texas
Caprock
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 352...
Valid 310025Z - 310200Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 352
continues.
SUMMARY...Severe, damaging wind gusts near 60-70 mph and localized
very large hail near 2.0-3.5" in diameter will continue across the
severe thunderstorm watch.
DISCUSSION...Recent radar data from KAMA and KLBB indicate two main
areas of severe threat concern. The first is associated with a QLCS
progressing southeastward across the TX and OK Panhandles, where
wind gusts around 65 mph have already been reported behind an
outflow boundary and deepening cold pool. The outflow boundary
associated with this system is now preceding the convergence zone,
and as it progresses into the southern TX panhandle and TX/OK
border, a general weakening trend is anticipated. This unfavorable,
downstream environment is indicative of larger CINH via the cold
pool from today's earlier convective complex. Therefore, a
downstream WW into OUN's CWA is not anticipated at this time. A few
updrafts may manage to develop along the new outflow boundary near
the AMA/LUB CWA border.
Further south, west and southwest of Lubbock, discrete thunderstorms
and transient supercells continue to develop off the residual
north-south outflow boundary. Large hail will be favored here, where
westerly deep layer effective shear of 55-60 kt coincides with a
narrow corridor of steep mid-level lapse rates.
