Areas affected...southeastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch needed soon=20
Valid 160321Z - 160415Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent
SUMMARY...Severe threat continues this evening. Downstream watch
issuance likely needed.
DISCUSSION...A broken line of thunderstorms continues to advance
northeastward this evening across eastern Oklahoma. A few more
discrete cells have been able to develop ahead of the main line
producing severe hail. Recently, 1 inch hail was reported near Ada,
Oklahoma. The risk of severe hail and gusty winds will continue to
be favored, especially within storms that can maintain discrete
modes within the warm sector. Boundary layer conditions continue to
be unfavorably dry with dew points in the mid 50s across much of
eastern Oklahoma. Recent surface objective analysis indicates that
the capping inversion across far southeastern OK/TX/AR may be
eroding in the last few hours within a region of 1000-1500 J/kg of
SBCAPE. Surface observations show 60 F dew points within the
Arklatex vicinity extending as far northward as McCurtain County
Oklahoma. A tornado or two will be possible with discrete modes/line
mergers occur within the corridor of better low-level moisture,
especially as shear profiles are further enhanced with increasing
850 mb flow over the next couple of hours. A downstream watch will
likely be needed within the hour.
