SPC 1630Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1130 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025
Valid 061630Z - 071200Z
...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS CENTRAL
AND EAST/SOUTHEAST TEXAS TO WESTERN LOUISIANA...
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC/NORTHEAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are expected today into this evening,
especially across parts of central into east/southeast Texas and
Louisiana. Large to very large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes,
potentially a few of which may be strong, should occur. Severe
thunderstorms may also develop this afternoon across parts of the
northern Mid-Atlantic/Northeast and the Florida Peninsula.
...Southern Plains into the Lower Mississippi Valley...
Multiple supercells are ongoing late this morning across central TX
along/near a surface warm front. As an upper trough/low continues to
eject eastward over the southern Plains today, a rather favorable
environment will be in place this afternoon and evening for intense
severe thunderstorms across central/east-central TX into LA. Even
with continued cloudiness across the warm sector, filtered daytime
heating and the presence of modestly steep mid-level lapse rates
will support moderate to locally strong instability given the
rich/moist low-level airmass present. Ample low-level and deep-layer
shear will foster continued updraft organization, including the
potential for several supercells. The greatest potential for
tornadoes, some of which could be strong, will likely remain focused
along/near the warm front, which will attempt to lift northward some
across east TX and LA through the afternoon and evening. Otherwise,
large hail will be possible north of the warm front with elevated
supercells. A severe/damaging wind threat will exist with any
clusters that can become established.
The tornado and damaging wind threat will probably continue through
the evening and perhaps overnight hours across parts of the lower MS
Valley, given sufficient instability and strong low-level shear
along/near the warm front. Have therefore adjusted the Slight Risk
eastward some across this region. Have also trimmed the Slight Risk
from the southern High Plains, as low-topped convection closer to
the cold-core upper low will probably only have access to weak
instability this afternoon/evening. Still, this activity may have an
isolated hail/wind threat, and the Marginal Risk has been maintained
across the southern High Plains for this potential.
...Northern Mid-Atlantic/Northeast...
Even in the presence of some cloud cover, thunderstorm development
and intensification will occur this afternoon across parts of the
northern Mid-Atlantic and vicinity in a modestly moist/unstable air
mass preceding an upper low over the upper OH Valley. Relatively
steep lapse rates aloft and moderate to strong deep-layer
south-southwesterly flow should support organized convection capable
of severe hail and damaging winds. The best severe threat should
remain focused across parts of eastern PA into NJ and southern NY,
where the Slight Risk has been maintained with only small
expansions.
...Florida...
Upper ridging should be more influential today over FL compared to
yesterday. Still, cool temperatures aloft and moderate instability
could support occasionally strong to severe thunderstorms capable of
producing isolated hail and/or damaging winds this afternoon across
parts of the FL Peninsula along/south of a remnant front.

MD 0714 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 230... FOR NORTH-CENTRAL TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 0714
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0917 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025
Areas affected...north-central Texas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230...
Valid 061417Z - 061515Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230
continues.
SUMMARY...A downstream/replacement severe thunderstorm watch will be
needed soon.
DISCUSSION...A line of storms continues to move east across north
Texas. This line appears mostly elevated with occasional wind
signatures, but no substantial measured wind gusts. Ahead of this
line, elevated storms have started to develop into supercells.
Expect this elevated activity to increase through the morning as a
40-45 knot low-level jet intensifies across northeast Texas with
~1500 J/kg MUCAPE. Some supercell structures will be possible given
the strong wind profile. Large hail will be the primary threat from
this activity.
A replacement severe thunderstorm watch will be needed by 15Z across
north-central Texas with additional areas east of watch 230 also
needed.

MD 0713 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 230... FOR PARTS OF NORTH-CENTRAL TX AND FAR SOUTH-CENTRAL OK
Mesoscale Discussion 0713
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0755 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025
Areas affected...Parts of north-central TX and far south-central OK
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230...
Valid 061255Z - 061430Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230
continues.
SUMMARY...Some severe threat could spread eastward with time this
morning.
DISCUSSION...A persistent storm cluster with an embedded supercell
is approaching north-central TX this morning, with other convection
increasing in advance of this cluster within a low-level
warm-advection regime. The 12Z FWD sounding depicted moderate
elevated buoyancy and sufficient deep-layer shear for storm
organization, and some short-term threat for hail and isolated
strong to severe gusts may spread eastward this morning, both with
the ongoing cluster and any intensifying downstream cells. Depending
on short-term trends, local extension of WW 230 and/or new watch
issuance is possible later this morning.

MD 0712 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 230... FOR SOUTH-CENTRAL INTO EAST-CENTRAL TX
Mesoscale Discussion 0712
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0611 AM CDT Tue May 06 2025
Areas affected...South-central into east-central TX
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230...
Valid 061111Z - 061415Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 230
continues.
SUMMARY...An increase in the tornado threat is expected with time
this morning. Tornado Watch issuance is likely later this morning,
though timing is uncertain.
DISCUSSION...Some increase in convection has recently been noted
across parts of the TX Hill Country, in close proximity to a surface
warm front that is expected to lift northward through the morning
across parts of south-central into east-central TX. Favorable
deep-layer shear and low-level SRH (as noted on the KEWX VWP) will
result in supercell potential through the morning, especially as the
warm front moves northward and rich low-level moisture continues to
support moderate to locally strong buoyancy.
Timing of additional supercell development and maturation within the
warm-advection regime remains somewhat uncertain, as does the
potential influence of an ongoing eastward-moving storm cluster near
San Angelo. However, as the threat for surface-based supercells
increases, a corresponding increase in the tornado threat is
expected with time this morning, in addition to potential for large
hail and locally damaging winds. A Tornado Watch will likely be
needed later this morning, though timing is uncertain.
