    Mesoscale Discussion 2053

    Areas affected...Parts of eastern CO...western KS...the OK
    Panhandle...and far northern TX Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 092006Z - 092200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe storms will be capable of producing large hail and
    severe wind gusts this afternoon into tonight. Current thinking is
    that a watch may eventually be needed for parts of the area, though
    timing is uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...The latest visible satellite imagery shows two areas of
    gradually deepening/expanding boundary-layer cumulus in eastern CO
    -- both focused along weak surface boundaries/wind shifts. Shallow boundary-layer cumulus is also becoming evident over the central OK
    Panhandle into the north-central TX Panhandle, where another subtle
    surface boundary is evident. Continued mesoscale ascent and diurnal
    heating along these boundaries should reduce any remaining
    inhibition and support storm initiation between 20-23Z. High-based/semi-discrete storms should track/develop
    east-southeastward into an increasingly moist/unstable air mass
    (1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE). Around 30-40 kt of effective shear
    (characterized by a long/mostly straight hodograph) should favor
    splitting cells with a risk of large hail and locally severe gusts.
    With time, storms may congeal into clusters as they move southward
    and intercept a gradually strengthening low-level jet this evening.
    Current thinking is that a watch may eventually be needed for parts
    of the area, though timing is uncertain.
