RIVER
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 260409Z - 260615Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...20 PERCENT
SUMMARY...ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE, AND
SPORADIC MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL MAY OCCUR.
DISCUSSION...IN THE WAKE OF THE DIURNALLY DRIVEN CLUSTER HAIL EVENT
OVER NORTH TEXAS, THE AIR MASS REMAINS UNSTABLE WITH MUCAPE OVER
1000 J/KG EXTENDING INTO SOUTH-CENTRAL OK THIS EVENING. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALREADY DEVELOPING WELL NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT
INTO OK, AND THIS TREND SHOULD PERSIST GIVEN MODEST SOUTHWEST FLOW
AROUND 850 MB AIDING THETA-E ADVECTION. THIS ZONE OF WEAK LIFT IS
NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE MUCH OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. HOWEVER, THIS
IS ALSO NEAR THE MIDLEVEL TEMPERATURE GRADIENT, AND AS SUCH, IT
SHOULD BE RELATIVELY EASY TO GET FURTHER STORM DEVELOPMENT. WHILE
NOT AS FAVORABLE AN ENVIRONMENT AS FARTHER SOUTH, AT LEAST ISOLATED
MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL IS FORECAST.
