Areas affected...Portions of OK
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 061830Z - 062100Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms should redevelop this afternoon and may pose
some threat for hail. Watch issuance is possible.
DISCUSSION...A compact shortwave trough with mid-level dry slot will
continue moving northeastward across OK/KS this afternoon. In the
wake of earlier convection which has generally weakened/dissipated,
additional thunderstorms should form near a surface low across
western OK by 20-21Z. Recent visible satellite imagery shows
clearing across parts of western/central OK, and low-level
convergence is already encouraging cumulus development along/south
of the low at 1830Z. Strengthening winds through mid levels will
support 40-50+ kt of effective bulk shear, and thunderstorms will
have the potential to become organized and rotate. However, the main uncertainty and potentially limiting factor will be how much
instability can redevelop this afternoon. Some steepening of
mid-level lapse rates should occur as the dry slot aloft moves over
central OK, but surface dewpoints should remain generally in the
upper 50s to around 60. Even so, temperatures increasing into the
upper 60s to lower 70s suggest that MLCAPE up to 1000-1250 J/kg may
develop across parts of OK by late afternoon. If this occurs, then
isolated large hail would be possible with the strongest cores.
Although not immediately likely, convective trends will be monitored
for watch issuance this afternoon.
