MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1110
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0510 PM CDT FRI JUN 12 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...SOUTH-CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS INTO THE OKLAHOMA AND
TEXAS PANHANDLES
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY
VALID 122210Z - 130015Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...80 PERCENT
SUMMARY...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IS LIKELY BE ISSUED SOON IN
ANTICIPATION OF UPSCALE CONVECTIVE GROWTH WITH STORMS CURRENTLY
MOVING OFF THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND INTO THE SOUTH-CENTRAL PLAINS.
HAIL AND DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS UP TO 80 MPH WILL BE THE
PRIMARY THREAT.
DISCUSSION...A SMALL CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS IN NORTHEASTERN NEW
MEXICO IS EXPECTED TO MOVE EASTWARD OFF THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND INTO
THE HIGH PLAINS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS, WHERE BUOYANCY AND SHEAR
INCREASE WITH LONGITUDINAL EXTENT. SHORT TERM FORECAST GUIDANCE AND
CURRENT MESOANALYSIS TRENDS SUGGESTS THIS CLUSTER OF CONVECTION WILL
GROW UPSCALE INTO A LINEAR CONVECTIVE SYSTEM WITH ONE OR MORE
EMBEDDED BOWING LINE SEGMENTS. STEEP LAPSE RATES FROM STRONG DIURNAL
HEATING, RICH MOISTURE CONTENT IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER, AND AN
INTENSIFYING NOCTURNAL LOW-LEVEL JET WILL SUPPORT PRIMARILY A
DAMAGING WIND THREAT, PARTICULARLY ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF
CONVECTION AND WITH ANY BOWING LINE SEGMENTS. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
WATCH IS LIKELY TO BE ISSUED SOON.
