Areas affected...portions of West Texas...and the Texas South
Plains/Panhandle
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 060010Z - 060215Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent
SUMMARY...Potential for hail and locally gusty/damaging winds will
exist with isolated storms now initiating over parts of western
Texas. WW may be needed this evening.
DISCUSSION...What is expected to be an initial round of
thunderstorms is now developing across portions of western Texas, in
a relatively dry, marginally unstable environment indicated by
latest objective analysis. The convection is initiating on the
Mexican side of the Texas Big Bend area, and over the Permian Basin,
near a dryline, and farther north into the South Plains region
near/north of a pseudo northwest-to-southeast warm front.
Despite modest CAPE (mixed-layer CAPE on the order of 500 J/kg),
deep-layer shear is sufficient for mid-level rotation, mainly due to
relatively strong southwesterly flow at mid levels. As lapse rates
gradually steepen aloft with the approach of the upper system, hail
will be a possibility with a few of the strongest cells. Meanwhile,
the fairly dry sub-cloud boundary layer may support evaporatively
driven gusts capable of producing local wind damage. The need for a
WW in the short term remains questionable, and will be based on
short-term evaluation of the evolution/coverage of stronger
convection. Additional convection expected to develop overnight may
require watch issuance, if earlier short-term convective trends do
not.
