Mesoscale Discussion 0258 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0824 PM CDT Sun Mar 23 2025 Areas affected...parts of central Texas Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 62...63... Valid 240124Z - 240330Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 62, 63 continues. SUMMARY...Large hail will likely remain a threat for a few more hours this evening from the San Antonio area northeastward into east-central Texas and northern Louisiana. DISCUSSION...Slow-moving cells continue to evolve from northwest of San Antonio toward Austin, with an overall increase in areal coverage. Given these trends, it appears likely the hail threat in general will continue to propagate south over the next couple hours, posing a damaging hail risk with up to 2.00" diameter possible. The combination of the front, various outflow boundaries, and the diurnally deepened moist boundary layer all suggest storms will persist despite a slow increase in CIN. To the northeast, other clusters of storms were gradually increasing in size entering into northern Limestone and Freestone counties with hail and gusty wind risk. Given the unstable air mass across the entire area ahead of the cold front, additional storms may develop this evening, with localized hail risk. ..Jewell.. 03/24/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
