Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0750 PM CDT Wed Apr 23 2025 Valid 240100Z - 241200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE CENTRAL TO SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms remain possible mainly over West Texas and western Kansas this evening. Large hail and localized wind damage is likely. ...Central and southern Plains... Scattered severe storms persist this evening across much of West TX and western KS, with a combination of splitting cells and clusters. These storms will likely persist through the evening due to little if any capping, with only a gradual consolidation/pruning in coverage. The most unstable air will remain from central into northwest TX, with isolated significant hail threat. In addition to large hail, merging storms and aggregate outflows may locally produce wind damage. Winds just off the surface will increase in speed tonight, which will maintain theta-e advection and increase low-level shear a bit as well.
