Mesoscale Discussion 1437 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0639 PM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024 Areas affected...Parts of south-central Oklahoma into Northeast Texas Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 262339Z - 270115Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Storms may be capable of large hail and severe wind gusts. The tornado threat is conditional, but present. Depending on convective trends, a watch is possible. DISCUSSION...Strong heating near an outflow boundary has promoted storm development in the last 30 minutes. Strong buoyancy (MLCAPE 2500-3000 J/kg) and 45-50 kts of effective shear will promote organized storms. The primary hazards will be large hail (up to 2 inches in diameter in the strongest storms) and severe wind gusts. The tornado risk does appear to be low, but is not zero. A mature storm far enough east into the outflow, where LCLs are lower and winds modestly more backed, could produce a tornado. The risk is quite conditional, however. Storm coverage is a bit uncertain as well given the departing mid-level trough to the east. ..Wendt/Smith.. 06/26/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
