SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0804 PM CDT Mon Jun 03 2024
Valid 040100Z - 041200Z
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM CENTRAL
OKLAHOMA INTO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...NORTHEAST TEXAS...AND INTO THE
ARKLAMISS...
...SUMMARY...
A line of thunderstorms will continue to pose primarily a damaging
wind threat across east Texas into the ArkLaMiss late this evening.
Additional elevated thunderstorms may develop tonight from central
to southern/southeast Oklahoma with a threat for large hail.
...Wisconsin/Northern Illinois...
A cluster of storms produced occasional wind damage from northeast
Iowa into southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. However, radar
trends over the past hour indicate these storms have gusted out as
they moved into lesser instability. Therefore, an isolated wind gust
is possible this evening, but the greater threat has mostly ended.
...Dakotas...
A few stronger cells have developed across northern South Dakota
which necessitated southward expansion of the marginal. Otherwise,
the remainder of the marginal risk remains with some threat for
isolated damaging wind gusts with the secondary line of storms
associated with the primary mid-level shortwave trough, moving
across eastern Montana, toward increasing instability.
...Central to Southeast Oklahoma...
Several runs of the HRRR have shown widespread elevated thunderstorm
development between 03Z and 06Z from central Oklahoma and into
southeast Oklahoma as the low-level jet strengthens tonight. The 00Z
OUN RAOB shows 3000+ MUCAPE with deep moisture to near 725mb. The
warm temperatures near 700mb cast some doubt on storm coverage, but
the isentropic ascent may be sufficient for thunderstorm
development. If storms do occur, large hail (potentially 2+ inches)
will be possible given around 40 knots of effective shear, steep
lapse rates, and strong to extreme instability.
...East Texas into the ArkLaMiss...
A well-established line of thunderstorms continues across east
Texas, northern Louisiana and eastern Arkansas. The airmass ahead
remains quite unstable (3000-3500 J/kg MLCAPE) which may maintain
the severe wind threat for a few hours before it weakens due to
boundary layer cooling and increasing mid-level temperatures with
southward extent. A small region of greater tornado threat may be
present for the next 1 to 2 hours east of DFW where transient
low-level rotation has been evident. The FWS VWP shows favorable
low-level shear, but storms are expected to weaken within the next
few hours.

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 385
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
135 PM CDT Mon Jun 3 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Southwest and Southern Arkansas
Northern Louisiana

800 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2
inches in diameter possible
Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible
SUMMARY...A squall line will likely continue east-southeast across
the Watch area through the afternoon into the early evening. Strong
to severe gusts (50-70 mph) will be capable of wind damage with the
more intense downdrafts.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75
statute miles north and south of a line from 35 miles west of De
Queen AR to 35 miles east of El Dorado AR. For a complete depiction
of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS
WOU5).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for 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. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.

MD 1155 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 385... FOR NORTHEAST TEXAS...NORTHERN LOUISIANA...SOUTHERN ARKANSAS
Mesoscale Discussion 1155
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0636 PM CDT Mon Jun 03 2024
Areas affected...Northeast Texas...Northern Louisiana...Southern
Arkansas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 385...
Valid 032336Z - 040130Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 385
continues.
SUMMARY...An isolated wind-damage and hail threat will be possible
with the stronger cells embedded in and ahead of a line segment from
northeast Texas into southern Arkansas and northern Louisiana.
Additional weather watch issuance remains uncertain.
DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery shows a linear MCS that
is moving southeast at about 35 knots across the Ark-La-Tex. A
pocket of strong instability is present ahead of the line, where
surface dewpoints are in the 70s F and MLCAPE is estimated in the
2500 to 3500 J/kg range. The instability, along with strong
large-scale ascent associated with a vorticity maxima and low-level
convergence, will support the linear MCS for several more hours as
it moves southeastward into the lower Mississippi Valley. The
WSR-88D VWP at Shreveport has 0-6 km shear near 40 knots with
directional shear in the lowest 2 km. This environment will continue
to support an isolated wind-damage threat with the stronger segments
along the leading edge of the line. Cells that form ahead of the
line could also have a hail threat.

MD 1154 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR FAR EASTERN MT AND WESTERN ND
Mesoscale Discussion 1154
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0509 PM CDT Mon Jun 03 2024
Areas affected...Far eastern MT and western ND
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 032209Z - 040015Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Scattered storms are expected this afternoon and
continuing into the evening. A few damaging gusts and isolated hail
are possible. A Watch is unlikely.
DISCUSSION...As of 22 UTC, regional radar analysis showed isolated
thunderstorms had initiated on the eastern edge of a persistent
cloud shield near the MT/ND border. Strong diurnal heating has
allowed surface temperatures to warm into the upper 70s to low 80s
F. While surface moisture has mixed somewhat, low 50s F surface
dewpoints and weak upslope flow are contributing to weak
destabilization. These storms, and additional development may
continue eastward into western ND with a risk for damaging winds
given the relatively high cloud bases. While buoyancy is modest
(~500-1000 J/kg of MLCAPE) occasional hail will be possible with the
stronger updrafts. Given the somewhat limited buoyancy and
uncertainty on storm coverage, a WW appears unlikely this evening.
