Severe Storms

SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0751 PM CDT Thu May 30 2024 Valid 310100Z - 311200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF WEST TEXAS... ...SUMMARY... A severe threat, with a possibility for wind damage and hail will likely continue this evening across parts of the southern Plains and central High Plains. Hailstones of greater than 2 inches in diameter, and an isolated tornado threat will be possible in parts of west Texas. A marginal severe threat is expected to continue for a couple more hours in parts of the mid Missouri Valley. ...Southern Plains/Central High Plains... The latest surface analysis shows a moist airmass located across most of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas extending westward into southeast Colorado. Scattered strong to severe storms are ongoing across parts of west Texas, the Texas Panhandle and southeast Colorado. RAP forecast soundings early this evening from near Amarillo southward to Midland, TX show a favorable environment for supercells with large hail, with MLCAPE from 2500 to 4000 J/kg, 700-500 mb lapse rates from 8 to 8.5 C/km, and 0-6 km shear in the 40 to 50 knot range. A potential will exist for hailstones greater than 2 inches in diameter, and a tornado or two from near Lubbock southward to Midland, where the combination of instability, shear and lapse rates appears most favorable. Further to the north across the Texas Panhandle, a linear MCS is ongoing. A potential will exist for severe wind gusts along and ahead of the leading edge of the line. However, the outflow associated with the line is well out ahead of the convection. This suggests that the severe weather potential could remain more isolated as the line moves southeastward this evening into parts of northwest and west-central Texas. Further to the east into the Sabine River Valley, another severe linear MCS is ongoing. Ahead of the line, the RAP is analyzing an axis of instability from southeast Texas into western Louisiana, where MLCAPE is estimated in the 2000 to 3000 J/kg range. Surface dewpoints ahead of the line are in the mid to upper 70s F, which is reflected on the 00Z sounding at Lake Charles. On this sounding, 0-6 km shear is near 30 knots and a substantial amount of directional shear exists within the 850 to 700 mb layer. This could be favorable for continued linear organization. A potential for severe wind gusts and hail will be possible with the stronger cores within the line. ...Mid Missouri Valley... The latest surface analysis shows a narrow corridor of maximized low-level moisture from northeast Nebraska into western Minnesota. Scattered thunderstorms are ongoing along and near the moist axis. The RAP is estimating MLCAPE in the 1000 to 2000 J/kg range. In addition, forecast soundings early this evening have 0-6 km shear in the 25 to 30 knot range, which could be enough for an isolated potential for hail and strong wind gusts for a couple more hours. However, lapse rates are poor which should keep any severe threat marginal. ..Broyles.. 05/31/2024 Read more

MD 1085 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 354... FOR THE PERMIAN BASIN AND TRANS-PECOS
Mesoscale Discussion 1085 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0638 PM CDT Thu May 30 2024 Areas affected...The Permian Basin and Trans-Pecos Concerning...Tornado Watch 354... Valid 302338Z - 310115Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 354 continues. SUMMARY...A tornado, very large hail, and severe damaging wind threat continues across the tornado watch. DISCUSSION...Two confirmed tornadoes were recently reported very close to MAF and briefly Denver City, in addition to very large hail. The supercell near MAF continues to interact with the same outflow boundary, and remains in a favorable environment for additional tornadogensis cycles. The KMAF VAD indicated 0-1 km SRH around 250-350 m2/s2 when the tornado occurred, and recent mesoanalysis suggests a broad area within southeasterly surface flow just behind the modified outflow boundary of 150-200 m2/s2 0-1 km SRH. In addition, steep mid-level lapse rates are contributing large CAPE within the hail growth zone as depicted in local RAP soundings. Increasing low-level shear and moisture advection will continue through the evening hours as a LLJ slowly intensifies. A discrete storm mode is expected to continue (deep layer effective shear 55-60 kt normal to forcing) before mergers occur late this evening. ..Barnes.. 05/30/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 1084 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR THE HIGH PLAINS OF SOUTHEAST COLORADO AND SOUTHWESTERN KANSAS
Mesoscale Discussion 1084 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0541 PM CDT Thu May 30 2024 Areas affected...The High Plains of southeast Colorado and southwestern Kansas Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 302241Z - 302345Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...A few strong to severe storms, including one or two transient supercells, may develop over the next 1-2 hours across portions of southeast CO and southwest KS. Large hail near 1.25-2.00" in diameter, wind gusts up to 65 mph, and a landspout or two will be possible. DISCUSSION...A couple of relatively robust thunderstorms have developed this afternoon in the lee of the Rockies near PUB, and along an outflow boundary and surface low intersection across far southwest KS. Additional towering CU are also beginning to develop east of PUB. Daytime heating and cooler mid-level temperatures aloft/steep mid-level lapse, combined with surface dewpoints in the upper 50s to low 60s, have contributed to moderate MLCAPE around 1500-2500 J/kg. Although weaker mid to upper-level flow is only yielding around 25-30 kt of deep layer effective shear, a slow increase is anticipated through this evening. This environment could support transient supercells with a threat of large hail and localized severe wind gusts. In addition, enhanced surface vorticity combined with modest low-level cape may present an opportunity for a landspout tornado or two. However, limited thunderstorm coverage may preclude the need for a WW at this time. ..Barnes/Hart.. 05/30/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

WW 352 SEVERE TSTM NM OK TX 301925Z - 310300Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 352 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 225 PM CDT Thu May 30 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Eastern New Mexico Oklahoma Panhandle Texas Panhandle and South Plains * Effective this Thursday afternoon and evening from 225 PM until 1000 PM CDT. * Primary threats include...
