WW 396 SEVERE TSTM OK TX 082100Z - 090400Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 396
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
400 PM CDT Sun Jun 8 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Southwest Oklahoma
Western North Texas and Low Rolling Plains
* Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 400 PM until
1100 PM CDT.
...THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION...
* Primary threats include...
Widespread damaging winds and scattered significant gusts to 105
mph likely
Widespread large hail likely with isolated very large hail
events to 5 inches in diameter possible
A few tornadoes likely
SUMMARY...Increasing intense severe storm development is expected
through late afternoon into evening. This will include initial
supercells capable of very large hail with a tornado risk, but a

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.

WW 395 SEVERE TSTM IL KS MO OK 081930Z - 090300Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 395
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
230 PM CDT Sun Jun 8 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Southwest Illinois
Southeast Kansas
Missouri
Northeast Oklahoma
* Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 230 PM until
1000 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events
to 2.5 inches in diameter possible
Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely
A tornado or two possible
SUMMARY...Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected to develop
near the advancing front this afternoon, with large hail and
damaging winds being the primary hazards.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
statute miles north and south of a line from 90 miles east of
Columbia MO to 40 miles west northwest of Bartlesville OK. 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.

AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to

MD 1212 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 396...397... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 1212
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0722 PM CDT Sun Jun 08 2025
Areas affected...portions of northern Texas
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 396...397...
Valid 090022Z - 090145Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 396, 397
continues.
SUMMARY...A significant severe wind risk is increasing with merging
supercells. A bow echo may develop and produce a derecho, with peak
gusts in the 80-100 mph range possible.
DISCUSSION...Multiple supercells, with reported severe hail across
the southeastern TX Panhandle, are beginning to merge. Multiple West
Texas Mesonet stations have reported peak 10-m gusts in roughly the
60-75 mph range, and this trend should continue to increase if these
storms successfully morph into a bow echo over the next couple of
hours. While supercells have occurred downstream of the southeast TX
Panhandle storms, it does not appear that large-scale tropospheric
overturning has occurred. As such, a very unstable warm sector
precedes the upscale-growing storms, with 3000-5000 J/kg MLCAPE and
50 kts of effective bulk shear being common (as also shown by the
00Z FWD observed sounding). The effective bulk shear vectors are
oriented roughly orthogonal to the merging line, which should
further encourage bow echo development.
Assuming bow echo development ensues over the next few hours, a
strong cold pool could encourage intense rear-inflow jet
development, which upon downward momentum transport could support a
derecho. In this scenario, widespread 60+ mph sustained winds may be
expected, with multiple embedded gusts peaking somewhere in the
75-100 mph range. The derecho could begin somewhere in the 01-03Z
period, and last for several hours downstream, the evolution of
which may need to be covered with a downstream PDS Severe
Thunderstorm Watch across much of north-central into northeast TX.

It still appears that clusters of strong to severe thunderstorm
development across the Texas Panhandle into Red River Valley
vicinity will consolidate into a gradually organizing and more
prominent cluster of storms this evening, accompanied by increasing
potential for widespread damaging wind gusts across northern Texas
and adjacent portions of southern Oklahoma overnight.
...01Z Update...
A weak cold front continues to advance southeast of the upper Great
Lakes region, through the middle Mississippi Valley and south
central Great Plains, downstream of deep mid-level troughing and an
embedded cyclone digging across the Canadian/U.S. border through the
northern Great Plains and upper Mississippi Valley. This is
preceded by a residual baroclinic zone across the southern Atlantic
Seaboard into the southern Great Plains, which has been enhanced to
the lee of the southern Rockies through the southern Great Plains by
strong differential surface heating beneath warm elevated
mixed-layer air.
Both boundaries remain the focus for strong to severe thunderstorm
development early this evening. However, outside of the southern
Great Plains, most of this activity is likely to continue to wane
with the loss of daytime heating.
In the presence of steeper lapse rates across the southern Great
Plains, stronger lingering potential instability still appears
likely to support an increasing risk of severe weather overnight,
generally focused along the southern/remnant baroclinic zone now
extending across or south of the southern portions of the Texas
Panhandle through north Texas. Mixed-layer CAPE still appears on
the order of 3000-4000 J/kg along this corridor. Although low-level
wind fields remain generally weak, at least modest strengthening of
a nocturnal low-level jet may occur to the east of lee surface
troughing, across the Texas South Plains into the vicinity of the
frontal zone across western North Texas. Otherwise, a seasonably
strong west-northwesterly mid/upper jet streak (40-70+ kt in the
500-300 mb layer) appears to be propagating along the frontal zone,
contributing to strong deep-layer shear.
Convection allowing model output has varied concerning the potential
convective evolution into and through the overnight hours across
parts of northern Texas. Model output indicating some of the more
intense potential evolutions appear to have backed off at least
some, in intensity. Regardless, there has been a consistent signal
that ongoing convection across the Texas Panhandle into Red River
vicinity will gradually consolidate, accompanied by a strengthening
cold pool and potential for the evolution of a notable MCV with
intensifying rear inflow. Given the environment, this still appears
possible, with the development of one or two sustained swaths of
potentially damaging wind gusts most probable near and south of the
Red River, across north central into northeastern Texas overnight.
