    Mesoscale Discussion 0618
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0726 PM CDT Fri Jun 01 2018

    Areas affected...Small part of west central TX

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 020026Z - 020200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Large hail and damaging wind threat should diminish by
    0200z as high-based supercells weaken.

    DISCUSSION...Strong surface-based heating and deep mixing
    contributed to high-based thunderstorm development along the dryline
    from just east of Lubbock to near Midland over the past couple of
    hours. MLCAPE of 2500-3000 J/kg and effective bulk shear near 35 kt
    has supported a couple of persistent supercells that have produced
    large hail and severe outflow winds in the deeply mixed and large temperature-dewpoint spread environment. The storms are beginning
    to move just east of the caprock to the lower plains, where
    convective inhibition increases quickly with eastward extent. Given
    the well-developed nature of the supercells and some possibility of
    storm mergers/clustering, they may persist for a county or so to the
    east. However, cooling surface temperatures and rapid strengthening
    of the cap should result in storm weakening/dissipation around 02z.
