Areas affected...TX Big Country
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 252225Z - 260000Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Very large hail is possible during the next hour or so
before the primary severe threat transitions to strong wind gusts as
the storm becomes more outflow dominant.
DISCUSSION...A thunderstorm initiated quickly across Palo Pinto
county in area where surface convergence was maximized along the
well-defined outflow from the decaying storm complex over
east-central TX. Very warm surface temperatures and modest moisture
beneath relatively cool mid-level temperatures support moderate
instability across the region. Recent mesoanalysis estimates MLCAPE
around 2000 J/kg. Instability decreases with western extent where
deep boundary layer mixing has reduced surface dewpoints. Surface
winds are fairly weak, generally easterly/southeasterly at 5 to 10
kt, but these backed surface winds beneath moderate northwesterly
flow aloft support 0-6 km bulk shear around 40 kt.
Overall environment supports the potential for very large hail (i.e.
greater than 2 inches), particularly given the discrete nature of
the storm. Bunkers supercell motion suggests a due southward storm
motion but the influence of the southwestward progressing outflow
boundary will likely result in a more southwestward storm motion.
Given the current strength of the storm's updraft and deeply mixed
downstream environment, strong wind gusts are possible once the
storm becomes outflow dominant.
