WW 437 TORNADO TX CW 200025Z - 201200Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Tornado Watch Number 437
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
725 PM CDT Wed Jun 19 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Tornado Watch for portions of
South Texas
Coastal Waters
* Effective this Wednesday night and Thursday morning from 725 PM
until 700 AM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
A few tornadoes possible
SUMMARY...A gradual strengthening and westward/inland spread of
supercell-favorable conditions is expected through the overnight
hours, north through northeast of the center of Tropical Storm
Alberto. This should increase the potential for tornadoes, at first
near parts of the lower/middle Texas Coast, then inland toward the
Rio Grande Valley by late tonight.
The tornado watch area is approximately along and 80 statute miles
east and west of a line from 20 miles south southeast of Mcallen TX
to 35 miles west northwest of Victoria TX. For a complete depiction
of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS
WOU7).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for
tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch
area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for
threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements
and possible warnings.
&&
OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 436...
AVIATION...Tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail
surface and aloft to 0 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind
gusts to 50 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean
storm motion vector 10035.

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0244 AM CDT Thu Jun 20 2024
Valid 231200Z - 281200Z
...DISCUSSION...
On Monday/D5, and upper trough is forecast to move across the Great
Lakes and into the Northeast. The primary surface low will be well
to the north in Quebec, but a cold front will extend south and
likely interaction with a moist and marginally unstable air mass
with at least 1000 J/kg MUCAPE. This may yield areas of strong
storms over the region, and the trough progression will need to be
monitored in upcoming outlooks.
For Tuesday/D6 through Thursday/D8 period, a strong upper ridge is
forecast over the Four Corners states, with strong northwest flow
possibly developing from the northern Plains, upper MS Valley and
Great Lakes. This type of setup could result in a severe MCS pattern
over parts of the northern Plains to Midwest with damaging wind
potential, possibly beginning as early as late Monday/D5 over the
northern Plains and upper MS Valley. Predictability of the potential
severe corridors is low at this time, but severe areas could be
introduced in later outlooks.

0216 AM CDT Thu Jun 20 2024
Valid 221200Z - 231200Z
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE
UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...
...SUMMARY...
Severe storms will be possible from the upper Mississippi Valley
toward upper Michigan on Saturday. Damaging wind, hail and isolated
tornado potential may develop.
...Synopsis and Discussion...
Model differences remain for Saturday in regard to the shortwave
trough forecast to move across the northern Plains and toward the
upper MS Valley/Great Lakes. However, there appears to be enough
potential to introduce a Slight Risk.
A surface low is forecast to deepen from SD into northern MN, with a
warm front will lifting north ahead of the low across MN and WI
during the day, and strengthening southwest 850 flow up to 50 kt.
Early day storms are likely in the warm advection regime from MN
into WI, with destabilization occurring behind this activity and
east of a cold pushing east across MN and IA. Moderate instability
and deep layer shear near the low and along the warm front would
favor supercells, with tornado and hail potential. Any bowing storms
may product damaging winds.
Farther south, moderate instability may develop along the front into
eastern KS and MO. Given the deep-layer shear orientation,
southeastward moving cells capable of hail will be possible.
