    Mesoscale Discussion 1269

    Areas affected...southwest Kansas into northwest Oklahoma and the
    northeast Texas Panhandle

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

    Valid 231057Z - 231330Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Storm coverage continues to increase this morning, with
    sporadic hail likely. The area is being monitored for potential
    upscale growth and watch potential for damaging wind downstream.

    DISCUSSION...Storms have increased in coverage over the last couple
    hours, as the low-level jet gradually veers towards southerly,
    bringing a very moist air mass northward atop the relatively cool
    surface air mass. MUCAPE is likely above 2000 J/kg, with upstream
    PWAT measured at 1.77" near OKC. West to northwest midlevel winds
    around 30 kt combined with the backed low-level winds are resulting
    in effective shear over 40 kt.

    In the near term, localized hail up to 1.75" appears possible in the
    stronger cells, with perhaps an increase in localized damaging gust
    potential. Trends will continue to be monitored for any upscale
    organization and possible downstream watch potential.
