   Areas affected...Portions of central and northeast Oklahoma

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 15...

   Valid 062341Z - 070115Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 15 continues.

   SUMMARY...Scattered supercells will spread northeast across
   east-central and northeast Oklahoma this evening.

   DISCUSSION...Roughly half a dozen supercells have evolved within a
   larger complex of convection across east-central into northeast
   Oklahoma. This activity has evolved along the eastern most plume of
   steeper low-level lapse rates where boundary layer remains moist and
   MLCAPE values are holding around 2000 J/kg. LLJ is currently focused
   across eastern OK, and some strengthening is expected during the
   evening hours. Current thinking is, for the next few hours, the
   greatest concentration of convection/supercells will be along a
   corridor from near Ada into the northeast corner of ww015.
