    Mesoscale Discussion 0238

    Areas affected...Northeast TX...Northwest LA...Central and Southern
    AR

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely

    Valid 131741Z - 131945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Elevated thunderstorm activity over southeast OK and
    northeast TX may become rooted in the boundary layer by mid
    afternoon. This will increase the risk of intense storms capable of
    tornadoes, large hail, and damaging winds. A tornado watch will be
    needed later today.

    DISCUSSION...Radar/satellite imagery shows a band of elevated
    convection extending from Pushmataha/Choctaw counties OK southward
    into Kaufman/Navarro counties TX. Some increase in intensity has
    been noted in the past hour, although activity remains sub-severe.
    A substantial capping inversion was in place over this region at
    12z, but the 18z FWD/LZK soundings indicate rapid cooling at the
    base of the EML and a diminishing cap. Given current trends, the
    thunderstorm activity may become surface-based in the next couple of
    hours.

    Strong low-level wind fields will remain in place ahead of the
    convection, and may increase through early evening. Local VAD
    profiles already show 0-3 km SRH values of 300-400 m2/s2 with
    forecast soundings suggesting values over 500 m2/s2 this evening.
    Assuming activity can remain semi-discrete, a few intense supercells
    are likely to evolve. Parameters appear favorable for the risk of
    strong tornadoes, along with large hail and damaging winds. PDS
    wording is being considered in the tornado watch for this region.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0238
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0147 AM CDT Mon Mar 25 2019

    Areas affected...Parts of northeast Texas...northwest Louisiana and
    adjacent southern Arkansas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 250647Z - 250815Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Some risk for severe hail and wind may linger in stronger
    storms for another hour or two, mainly across the Interstate 20
    corridor of northeast Texas, before likely diminishing by 4-5 AM
    CDT. An additional severe weather watch is not anticipated.

    DISCUSSION...The most vigorous thunderstorm development is now
    generally focused west-northwest through north/northeast of Tyler
    TX, within a remnant axis of stronger, but waning boundary layer destabilization associated with yesterday's daytime heating, and a
    return flow of Gulf moisture that persists. This now appears to be
    just ahead of a southward advancing surface cold front, which may
    gradually tend to undercut the stronger convection and associated
    unstable boundary layer air through 09-10z, as it progresses across
    the Interstate 20 corridor. As this occurs, storm intensities are
    expected to diminish. Until then, some risk for severe hail and
    gusty surface winds may remain possible in isolated stronger storms
    for another hour or two.
