Mesoscale Discussion 0611 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0659 PM CDT Tue Apr 29 2025 Areas affected...Ohio Valley Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 192...193... Valid 292359Z - 300130Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 192, 193 continues. SUMMARY...Scattered strong-severe thunderstorms will spread across southern Ohio and Kentucky this evening. Wind and hail are the primary concern. DISCUSSION...Long-lived MCS that spread across southern IL/IN appears to be reorganizing across southern OH/KY as new convection develops ahead of the main complex. A notable MCV is located near CVG and is likely contributing to recent upscale growth immediately downstream over southern OH. Wind/hail remain a concern with this activity as it spreads east. ..Darrow.. 04/29/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...RLX...JKL...ILN...LMK...

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0804 PM CDT Tue Apr 29 2025 Valid 300100Z - 301200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF WEST/NORTHWEST TX INTO SOUTHERN OK... ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO VALLEY... ...SUMMARY... Multiple clusters of severe storms are expected this evening into overnight across parts of the Southern Plains. Large to very large hail, severe gusts, and a couple tornadoes are all possible. Clusters of storms with locally damaging wind also remain possible across parts of the Ohio Valley into the Northeast. ...Southern Plains into the Ozarks... An intense storm cluster with embedded supercells has developed across western north TX this evening. Large to very large hail and at least localized significant wind gusts will be possible with this cluster as it moves across north TX and southern OK. The downstream environment is also becoming increasingly favorable to tornadoes in the vicinity of a remnant outflow boundary, with enlarging low-level hodographs, rich low-level moisture, and moderate to strong instability in place. The storm mode may remain rather complex with additional upscale growth possible, but any persistent embedded supercells will pose a tornado threat through the evening. Later tonight, this complex may move into parts of eastern OK and the Ozarks, with continued severe potential into the overnight hours. Renewed strong to severe storm development is expected later tonight in the southwest TX vicinity, aided by an approaching mid/upper-level trough and strengthening low-level jet. The environment will remain favorable for supercells, and an additional cluster may evolve and move east-northeastward toward north TX and southern OK overnight. Large to very large hail and severe wind gusts will be possible with the late night storms, along with some tornado potential with any supercells that are able to remain surface-based near the effective cold front and outflow boundary. ...Ohio Valley into the Northeast... Much of the Ohio Valley into parts of the Northeast has stabilized in the wake of multiple severe-wind producing MCSs. However, pockets of locally moderate buoyancy from parts of KY/OH, and also into parts of northern NY. A few strong clusters and/or marginal supercells remain possible through the evening, with a threat of locally damaging wind, isolated hail, and possibly a tornado. ..Dean.. 04/30/2025 Read more

Much of the Ohio Valley into parts of the Northeast has stabilized in the wake of multiple severe-wind producing MCSs. However, pockets of locally moderate buoyancy from parts of KY/OH, and also into parts of northern NY. A few strong clusters and/or marginal supercells remain possible through the evening, with a threat of locally damaging wind, isolated hail, and possibly a tornado. ..Dean.. 04/30/2025 Read more

SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0804 PM CDT Tue Apr 29 2025 Valid 300100Z - 301200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF WEST/NORTHWEST TX INTO SOUTHERN OK... ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO VALLEY... ...SUMMARY... Multiple clusters of severe storms are expected this evening into overnight across parts of the Southern Plains. Large to very large hail, severe gusts, and a couple tornadoes are all possible. Clusters of storms with locally damaging wind also remain possible across parts of the Ohio Valley into the Northeast. ...Southern Plains into the Ozarks... An intense storm cluster with embedded supercells has developed across western north TX this evening. Large to very large hail and at least localized significant wind gusts will be possible with this cluster as it moves across north TX and southern OK. The downstream environment is also becoming increasingly favorable to tornadoes in the vicinity of a remnant outflow boundary, with enlarging low-level hodographs, rich low-level moisture, and moderate to strong instability in place. The storm mode may remain rather complex with additional upscale growth possible, but any persistent embedded supercells will pose a tornado threat through the evening. Later tonight, this complex may move into parts of eastern OK and the Ozarks, with continued severe potential into the overnight hours. Renewed strong to severe storm development is expected later tonight in the southwest TX vicinity, aided by an approaching mid/upper-level trough and strengthening low-level jet. The environment will remain favorable for supercells, and an additional cluster may evolve and move east-northeastward toward north TX and southern OK overnight. Large to very large hail and severe wind gusts will be possible with the late night storms, along with some tornado potential with any supercells that are able to remain surface-based near the effective cold front and outflow boundary. ...Ohio Valley into the Northeast...
