    Mesoscale Discussion 0429

    Areas affected...Portions of eastern Colorado...northeast New
    Mexico...far western OK panhandle...and far northwest Texas
    panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 151932Z - 152130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will move off the high terrain and pose a
    threat for severe wind gusts and hail this afternoon. A Severe
    Thunderstorm Watch may be needed, particularly over the southern
    portion of the area.

    DISCUSSION...Strong heating over the Mountains has contributed to
    scattered thunderstorm development, most concentrated currently over
    the southern Rockies. Strong heating also is occurring over the
    Colorado and New Mexico High Plains, and has generated very steep
    low-level lapse rates over the entire area. Although surface
    dewpoints are in the low-to-mid 40s, mean boundary-layer mixing
    ratios are sufficient for generating MLCAPE ranging from 250 J/kg
    over the Colorado High Plains to over 1000 J/kg over the New Mexico
    High Plains. Furthermore, an easterly fetch of higher moisture has
    been flowing persistently toward the Raton Mesa area and southward,
    where dewpoints should reach the low 50s by late afternoon. The
    higher moisture content, combined with higher effective bulk shear
    of 35-45 kt, is creating higher confidence in the need for a Severe Thunderstorm Watch over the southern portion of the area. Scattered
    discrete supercells are expected to evolve initially, but because
    numerous storms are expected, and cold pools should be at least
    moderately strong, storm consolidation into a mixed
    multicell/supercell cluster is expected by late afternoon. The
    corridor of instability within the easterly fetch is sufficient and
    widespread enough to favor the maintenance of the cluster/MCS
    through the early evening.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0429
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1006 PM CDT Tue Apr 23 2019

    Areas affected...Texas Big Bend and Edwards Plateau into north
    central Texas

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 95...

    Valid 240306Z - 240400Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 95
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A new severe weather watch may be issued by 1030-11 PM
    CDT, as at least some severe weather potential probably will persist
    into the overnight hours.

    DISCUSSION...East and south of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and
    east of the Interstate 35 corridor to the south, weaker boundary
    layer instability appears likely to prevail in association with some combination of continuing surface cooling, stronger mid-level
    inhibition, and warmer air above than across much of west Texas.
    This is expected to result in considerable weakening of ongoing
    storms now across and southwest of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex
    as it spreads eastward through midnight-1 AM.

    However, in the presence of continuing moderately large CAPE in
    excess of 1000 J/kg, strong to severe storm development may persist
    into the overnight hours and spread across parts of the Edwards
    Plateau into the Hill Country. Additional storms may develop off
    the higher terrain to the west of the Rio Grande River and spread northeastward, ahead of the mid-level closed low gradually turning
    eastward toward the Big Bend region.
