NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0338 PM CDT SUN JUL 13 2025
AREAS AFFECTED...SOUTHWESTERN NEW MEXICO AND SOUTHEASTERN ARIZONA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 132038Z - 132315Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...40 PERCENT
SUMMARY...STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING, POSING A SEVERE WIND
RISK. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IS POSSIBLE.
DISCUSSION...THUNDERSTORMS HAVE INITIATED OVER THE HIGH TERRAIN THIS
AFTERNOON ACROSS THE REGION. WHILE MOISTURE IS MEAGER FOR THIS TIME
OF YEAR, IT IS SUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT 500-1000 J/KG OF MLCAPE AND
ROBUST UPDRAFTS. THE 18Z TUCSON SOUNDING REPRESENTS THE
CHARACTERISTIC WELL-MIXED, INVERTED-V SOUNDING PROFILES ACROSS THE
REGION. CERTAINLY, THIS ENVIRONMENT WILL SUPPORT DRY-MICROBURST
POTENTIAL FOR THE STRONGEST STORMS. WITH NORTHEASTERLY MIDLEVEL
FLOW EXPECTED TO INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING, A MORE
ORGANIZED WIND THREAT COULD DEVELOP AND MOVE SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD OFF
THE HIGHER TERRAIN. CONVECTIVE TRENDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED
FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE.
