Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0812 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2024 Valid 290100Z - 291200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PART OF EAST TEXAS...WESTERN TO NORTHERN LOUISIANA...AND SOUTHERN ARKANSAS... ...SUMMARY... Severe storms, capable of wind damage, a couple tornadoes and isolated large hail are likely this evening across parts of east Texas, northern/central Louisiana and southern Arkansas. A few severe storms, associated with wind damage and hail will also be possible in a broader area from the southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley northward to the Ozarks and Lower Missouri Valley. ...Sabine River Valley/Ark-La-Tex/Southern Plains/Ozarks... The latest water vapor imagery shows a mid-level trough over the southern Plains, with southwesterly flow over the Ark-Latex and lower Mississippi Valley. A shortwave trough, and an associated 50 to 60 knot mid-level jet, appear to be moving through the Ark-La-Tex. A large cluster of strong to severe storms is ongoing near this shortwave trough, and to the east of the jet streak, from east Texas into far northwest Louisiana. This cluster is expected to move eastward across the remainder of east Texas, and into northern and western Louisiana this evening, where linear MCS development will be possible. The latest surface analysis shows the moist sector, with backed southeasterly flow, across the Sabine and Lower Mississippi Valleys. A mesolow is located in the Ark-La-Tex. Surface dewpoints across the moist sector are in the mid to upper 60s F, with the RAP/observed RAOBS estimating MLCAPE generally in the 1500 to 2000 J/kg range. The instability will sustain a large cluster of storms, as it moves toward the Mississippi Valley this evening. In addition, regional WSR-88D VWPs at Fort Polk and Shreveport, Louisiana have 0-6 km shear around 40 knots, with a lot directional shear from the surface to 4 km above ground level. This will continue to be favorable for a severe bowing line segment for several more hours this evening. Wind damage will be likely along the leading edge of the line. If a cold pool can become organized, then the wind damage threat could become more widespread. The Fort Polk, Louisiana WSR-88D VWP also has 0-3 km storm-relative helicity around 225 m2/s2 suggesting a tornado threat will exist with the line, and with the more intense cells further to the southwest. The more intense semi-discrete storms in east Texas should be supercellular, having a large hail and isolated tornado threat. The severe threat is expected to continue for several more hours, but should become marginal in the late evening and overnight period. A severe threat will also be possible further to the north into the Ozarks and lower Missouri Valley, but should be isolated due to the airmass largely being overturned. Further to the north and west into central and eastern Oklahoma, north-central Texas, RAP analysis show moderate instability in place, with MLCAPE generally from the 1000 to 2000 J/kg. In addition, the observed sounding at Oklahoma City, and forecast soundings further to the east have 0-6 km shear generally in the 30 to 45 knot range. This, combined with steep mid-level lapse rates should support a severe threat early this evening. Hail and isolated strong wind gusts will be the primary threats. Large-scale subsidence behind the exiting shortwave trough should keep any severe threat marginal this evening. ..Broyles.. 04/29/2024 Read more

Mesoscale Discussion 0565 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0650 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2024 Areas affected...Northeast Oklahoma...Northwestern Arkansas...and Southwestern Missouri Concerning...Tornado Watch 159... Valid 282350Z - 290045Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 159 continues. SUMMARY...Tornado threat continues in WW159. Corridor of more favorable surface winds may support risk of a tornado. DISCUSSION...Recent surface observations indicate winds across northwestern Arkansas into southwestern Missouri are backing as convection approaches from the south and west. This southeasterly component has not handled well by recent RAP analysis data, which may indicate low-level shear is more favorable across this corridor than indicated in recent guidance. The VAD profile from KSRX (Fort Smith WSR-88D) shows around 250-300 m2/s2 0-1km SRH. This area may be a focused zone of potential for a tornado in the short term. ..Thornton/Smith.. 04/28/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...SGF...TSA...

MD 0564 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 158... FOR EAST TX...NORTHWEST LA...SOUTHERN AR
Mesoscale Discussion 0564 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0613 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2024 Areas affected...East TX...Northwest LA...Southern AR Concerning...Tornado Watch 158... Valid 282313Z - 290015Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 158 continues. SUMMARY...Severe threat will spread east of ww158 shortly. New tornado watch will likely be warranted immediately downstream. DISCUSSION...Sustained low-level warm advection will continue across the lower MS Valley early this evening in association with LLJ that is focused from the lower Sabine River Valley into western AR. Deep convection that evolved upstream over central TX has propagated east as the LLJ has shifted downstream. Multiple thunderstorm clusters have evolved with the leading edge of this activity now surging into Harrison/Panola County region. Over the next few hours this complex will advance beyond the eastern border of ww158 and a new tornado watch will likely be issued soon to account for this risk. ..Darrow.. 04/28/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
