MD 0905 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 290... FOR EAST TEXAS...NORTHERN LOUISIANA
Mesoscale Discussion 0905 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0858 PM CDT Wed May 22 2024 Areas affected...East Texas...Northern Louisiana Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 290... Valid 230158Z - 230400Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 290 continues. SUMMARY...A threat for wind damage and isolated large hail will likely continue through late evening from east Texas into northern Louisiana. DISCUSSION...A large MCS is currently ongoing from east Texas into northern Louisiana and far southern Arkansas. The MCS is located within a moderately unstable airmass, with the RAP analyzing MLCAPE in the 2000 to 3000 J/kg range across much of the Sabine River Valley. In addition, the RAP shows a belt of strong mid-level flow from north Texas extending eastward into the lower Mississippi Valley. This stronger flow is being sampled by the WSR-88D VWP at Fort Polk, LA, which has 0-6 km shear near 50 knots. RAP forecast soundings nearby have steep mid-level lapse rates with veering winds from the surface to near 700 mb. This should continue to support a severe threat with the stronger cells embedded in the MCS. Wind damage will be the greatest threat, although isolated large hail will also be possible. ..Broyles.. 05/23/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Tornado Watch Number 291 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 640 PM CDT Wed May 22 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Tornado Watch for portions of Central and southeast Texas * Effective this Wednesday night from 640 PM until Midnight CDT. * Primary threats include... A couple tornadoes possible Scattered damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts to 80 mph possible Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...A large supercell cluster with a history of severe wind gusts/hail will likely continue east-southeastward for the next few hours. The storm environment will favor gusts up to 80 mph and large hail of 1-2 inches in diameter, in addition to the potential for a couple of tornadoes with embedded circulations. The tornado watch area is approximately along and 45 statute miles either side of a line from 35 miles south of Temple TX to 50 miles north northeast of Huntsville TX. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU1). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Mesoscale Discussion 0904 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0724 PM CDT Wed May 22 2024 Areas affected...Northeast Texas...Far Southwest Arkansas...Northwest Louisiana Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 290... Valid 230024Z - 230230Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 290 continues. SUMMARY...A threat for wind damage and large hail will likely continue for a few more hours across parts of the Ark-La-Tex. DISCUSSION...Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are ongoing from northeast Texas eastward into southwestern Arkansas and northern Louisiana. These storms are located on the northern edge of a strongly unstable airmass. Forecast soundings in the Ark-La-Tex from the RAP have MLCAPE near 3000 J/kg, with 0-6 km shear around 50 knots, and 700-500 mb lapse rates near 7.5 C/km. This should support supercell development, with a potential for large hail and wind damage. Damaging wind gusts will also be possible with the more intense line segments. This threat is expected to persist for a few more hours, but could become more isolated as instability begins to decrease across the Ark-La-Tex during the mid to late evening. ..Broyles.. 05/23/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0902 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 286... FOR CENTRAL AND EAST TEXAS
Mesoscale Discussion 0902 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0608 PM CDT Wed May 22 2024 Areas affected...Central and East Texas Concerning...Tornado Watch 286... Valid 222308Z - 230115Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 286 continues. SUMMARY...A threat for tornadoes, wind damage and isolated large hail will continue for a few more hours across parts of central and east Texas. As the severe threat moves toward the eastern edge of WW 286, a local extension or new watch may be needed. DISCUSSION...The latest hi-resolution radar imagery from Fort Worth shows a small cluster of intense storms in the northern Texas Hill Country, in Lampasas, Coryell, and McLennan counties. Multiple supercells are ongoing, and one of the storms has had a persistent circulation. This cluster of storms will continue to move eastward into a corridor of extreme instability, where MLCAPE is estimated by the RAP in the 4500 to 5500 J/kg range. The nearest WSR-88D VWP, located at Granger, TX has 0-6 km shear of 45 to 50 knots, and 0-3 km storm-relative helicity fluctuating in the 200 to 300 m2/s2 range over the last half hour. This environment should be favorable for supercells with a tornado threat. A strong tornado will be possible. Supercells will also be capable of isolated large hail. Hailstones of greater than 2 inches in diameter may accompany the most intense updrafts. Also, radar suggests that damaging winds will be likely near the strongest downdrafts, and winds could exceed 70 knots locally. ..Broyles.. 05/22/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Scattered severe thunderstorms remain possible this evening from central Texas to the Ark-La-Miss, and in northeast Ohio to western Pennsylvania. Isolated severe thunderstorms may persist overnight from the Mid-South to the Northeast. ...01Z Update... Primary severe threat will exist immediately ahead of multiple clusters with embedded supercells from east-central TX to the Ark-La-Tex. Over the next few hours, a threat for significant severe wind/hail along with a couple tornadoes will continue. Recent HRRR and WoFS runs along with 18Z guidance suggests this activity will diminish during the late evening as MLCIN increases from south to north ahead of the clusters. Still, have expanded level 1-2/MRGL-SLGT risks farther southeast in southeast TX to central LA. Elsewhere, thunderstorms from eastern TN to NY have largely subsided. Renewed development has occurred ahead of a surface cold front from the central OH Valley to southwest ON. This activity has held in a narrow convective line with marginally severe hail as the primary initial threat. Despite the unfavorable time of day, as the front fully overtakes this band, an increase in strong gusts may occur with some linear clustering, mainly across northeast OH into western PA. Finally, additional low-level warm theta-e advection storms should persist through the overnight from north TX across parts of the Ozarks and Mid-South. Isolated severe hail will be possible in the more sustained updrafts. ..Grams.. 05/23/2024 Read more

SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0758 PM CDT Wed May 22 2024 Valid 230100Z - 231200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN CENTRAL TX TO THE ARK-LA-MISS AND NORTHEAST OH TO WESTERN PA... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms remain possible this evening from central Texas to the Ark-La-Miss, and in northeast Ohio to western Pennsylvania. Isolated severe thunderstorms may persist overnight from the Mid-South to the Northeast. ...01Z Update... Primary severe threat will exist immediately ahead of multiple clusters with embedded supercells from east-central TX to the Ark-La-Tex. Over the next few hours, a threat for significant severe wind/hail along with a couple tornadoes will continue. Recent HRRR and WoFS runs along with 18Z guidance suggests this activity will diminish during the late evening as MLCIN increases from south to north ahead of the clusters. Still, have expanded level 1-2/MRGL-SLGT risks farther southeast in southeast TX to central LA. Elsewhere, thunderstorms from eastern TN to NY have largely subsided. Renewed development has occurred ahead of a surface cold front from the central OH Valley to southwest ON. This activity has held in a narrow convective line with marginally severe hail as the primary initial threat. Despite the unfavorable time of day, as the front fully overtakes this band, an increase in strong gusts may occur with some linear clustering, mainly across northeast OH into western PA. Finally, additional low-level warm theta-e advection storms should persist through the overnight from north TX across parts of the Ozarks and Mid-South. Isolated severe hail will be possible in the more sustained updrafts. ..Grams.. 05/23/2024 Read more
