MD 0520 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 160... FOR WESTERN OKLAHOMA...SOUTH-CENTRAL KANSAS...NORTHWEST TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 0520
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0744 PM CDT Tue Apr 22 2025
Areas affected...Western Oklahoma...south-central Kansas...northwest
Texas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 160...
Valid 230044Z - 230215Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 160
continues.
SUMMARY...Isolated severe thunderstorms remain possible.
DISCUSSION...Primary zone of low-level convergence currently extends
from west of GBD-southeast of LBL-north of DHT. Low-level moisture
is slowly advancing northwest into this boundary with 50+ surface
dew points into the eastern OK Panhandle. Over the next few hours,
LLJ is forecast to increase across the northern TX Panhandle into
southwest KS. This may aid renewed convection north of Woodward into
south-central KS where robust thunderstorms are ongoing, and are
likely producing large hail.
A small cluster of strong/severe thunderstorms is propagating east
toward southwest OK. This activity should advance into the western
portions of ww160 over the next hour or so. Hail remains the primary
risk.

Valid 230100Z - 231200Z
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM WEST TEXAS
INTO PARTS OF CENTRAL KANSAS...
...SUMMARY...
Scattered severe thunderstorms remain possible across parts of the
southern/central Plains this evening, with isolated strong activity
over Louisiana and later tonight into Iowa.
...Southern Plains...
Scattered storms currently stretch from south-central KS into much
of West TX, where strong heating occurred this afternoon along the
leading edge of the moisture return. Cool midlevel temperatures as
well as modest mid to high level flow will continue to support large
hail. Some of these storms may congeal into cluster with damaging
outflow, perhaps across northwest TX and southwest OK later tonight.
For more information see forthcoming mesoscale discussion 520.
...Elsewhere...
Isolated strong storms persist this evening over Louisiana, where
moderate instability developed today. These slow moving cells may
continue to produce marginal hail for an hour or two before
dissipating with the loss of heating.
Farther north, increasing southwest flow around 850 mb will
transport moisture into NE/IA, as an upper trough over the northern
Plains glances the area. Scattered elevated storms are expected late
tonight, and cold midlevel temperatures and modest shear in the
cloud-bearing layer may support sporadic hail.

MD 0519 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 159... FOR MUCH OF WESTERN TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 0519
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0524 PM CDT Tue Apr 22 2025
Areas affected...Much of western Texas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 159...
Valid 222224Z - 230000Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 159
continues.
SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Severe Thunderstorm
Watch 159. Large hail and severe gusts are the main threats.
DISCUSSION...Multiple supercells have developed ahead of the dryline
across western TX, some with a history of severe wind and hail. At
the moment, the strongest storms are progressing across southern
parts of the TX Panhandle and the Trans Pecos region. The supercell
across Pecos County TX has rapidly intensified in the last hour and
has been exhibiting deviant rightward motion. This storm has the
best chance at producing a tornado over the next hour or so.
Storms may continue to develop across western TX, with storm mergers
potentially supporting cold pool intensification and perhaps a
greater severe gust threat this evening.
