    Mesoscale Discussion 0412

    Areas affected...Portions of southwest...western and northwest Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 141932Z - 142100Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms have developed near a dryline over the area.
    A Severe Thunderstorm Watch may be needed later this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms have developed over the last
    hour, one area southwest of Sweetwater along a narrow, northward
    surge of higher boundary-layer moisture, and the other over the
    Davis Mountains over the southwestern portion of the area.
    Dewpoints in the mid-to-upper 60s and temperatures in the upper 80s
    have contributed to moderate to large instability within the
    moisture surge east of a dryline over the area. Rather low
    effective bulk shear over the northern portion of the area should
    preclude storm organization there, but the large instability and
    very steep lapse rates, both in low- and mid-levels, will contribute
    to a threat for severe wind gusts with any of the storms that
    develop, along with a risk for marginally-severe hail. As the
    tongue of higher moisture pushes northward, additional thunderstorms
    are expected to develop between Sweetwater and Childress, posing a
    threat for strong to severe wind gusts and severe hail.

    Over the southwestern portion of the area, easterly low-level flow
    and a moist, unstable air mass, as seen by the recent 86/67
    observation at Sanderson, should maintain storm development eastward
    in the next few hours. Additionally, larger deep-layer shear in the
    stronger sub-tropical flow should maintain storm organization,
    including supercells, and the threat for severe wind gusts and hail
    over this time. Additional thunderstorms are expected to develop in
    between the above mentioned areas, affecting the San Angelo area in
    the next few hours with similar threats for severe wind and hail.

    The lack of stronger deep-layer shear over most of the area, and
    subsequent expectation of disorganized storm modes, is preventing a
    more certain determination of Watch issuance this afternoon. But if
    widespread storm development occurs along the moisture surge, as
    suggested by some high-resolution guidance, a Severe Thunderstorm
    Watch may be needed.

    Areas affected...South FL and the FL Keys

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 92...

    Valid 192311Z - 200045Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 92
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for isolated damaging wind will continue this
    evening as a line of thunderstorms moves eastward. If there is an
    uptick in thunderstorm intensity over the next hour, then a watch
    extension into the remainder of south Florida may be necessary.

    DISCUSSION...At 23Z, a line of thunderstorms is advancing eastward
    across the southern FL peninsula, with additional thunderstorm
    development recently noted down into the FL Keys. This activity
    should continue to progress eastward through the remainder of south
    FL and the FL Keys between now and 02Z, as it moves through a warm,
    moist, and moderately unstable (MLCAPE 1500-2000 J/kg) environment.
    Effective shear of 40-50 kt is sufficient to support updraft
    organization, but thus far, convection has remained relatively
    disorganized, with only weak midlevel rotation noted and no tendency
    for the development of bowing segments or embedded supercells.

    The potential for an uptick in storm organization with time remains
    uncertain, as convection becomes increasingly removed from the
    primary upper low across the TN Valley. However, given the otherwise
    favorable environment, the threat remains for at least isolated
    damaging wind this evening. If there is an uptick in organization
    over the next hour or so, then it may become necessary to extend WW
    92 into the remainder of south FL, but otherwise the threat should
    remain isolated and the watch can be cleared as the line advances
    eastward.
