    Mesoscale Discussion 1527
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0312 PM CDT Fri Oct 05 2018

    Areas affected...Far southeast New Mexico...southwest Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 052012Z - 052245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered strong storm coverage is expected to gradually
    increase through peak heating of the afternoon. Marginally severe
    hail/wind will be the predominant threats. A WW issuance is unlikely
    given the sparse and marginal nature of the severe coverage.

    DISCUSSION...Convective coverage has been slowly increasing over the
    Davis Mountains, with lightning noted with some of the stronger
    cells within the past hour. Temperatures have reached or exceeded
    90F across much of the discussion area, with modest low-level
    moisture and mid-level lapse rates (around 6.5 C/km) in place,
    supporting a marginally buoyant airmass with up to 1000-1500 J/kg
    MLCAPE noted. Deep-layer and low-level shear are both quite poor
    across the area, suggesting that mainly single cells and perhaps
    multicellular clusters will be the predominant storm mode.
    Evaporative cooling within a dry sub-cloud layer extending up to 700
    mb may promote damaging wind gusts in association with the stronger
    storms. A few marginally severe hailstones may also occur during the
    peak stages of the most intense cells.

    While deep layer ascent (associated with a mid-level shortwave
    trough to the west) will glance the area later in the afternoon and
    encourage greater storm coverage, more widespread coverage of severe
    is expected to remain limited given the marginal buoyancy and poor
    kinematics. Given the isolated nature of the severe, a WW issuance
    is not expected at this time.
