    Areas affected...northwest into central OK

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 372...

    Valid 220434Z - 220630Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 372
    continues.

    SUMMARY...An intense bow echo and rear inflow jet will be capable of
    80-100 mph gusts, potentially as far southeast as the OKC metro.

    DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a mature and intense bow echo and
    associated rear inflow jet over northwest OK late this evening. The
    airmass ahead of this is very unstable with 3000-4000 J/kg MLCAPE.=20
    Ample mid to high-level northwesterly flow and a very moisture-rich
    boundary layer will favor further intensification and maintenance of
    this bow echo southeastward into central OK. Recent HRRR models
    runs are congruent with this overall convective evolution. Peak
    gusts of 80-100 mph are forecast with the bow echo. Mesovortices
    within the line will also focus intense wind swaths and perhaps
    yield a brief tornado or two.
