    Mesoscale Discussion 1036

    Areas affected...the eastern Texas Panhandle amd far northwestern
    Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 082341Z - 090145Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe storms will likely pose a threat for hail,
    damaging gusts and a brief tornado this evening.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2330 UTC, regional radar analysis showed two
    stronger thunderstorms have matured along the dryline across the
    eastern TX Panhandle. While vertical shear is rather modest, very
    hot surface temperatures over 100 F and 60s F surface dewpoints are
    supporting moderate instability with these supercells. Isolated
    large hail is possible for the next couple of hours given the steep
    lapse rates and buoyancy, along with the potential for damaging
    winds with T/TD spreads of 40 degrees F. Recent reports of a
    landspout also suggests a tornado is possible, especially in
    Lipscomb County, TX where back building along the dryline/boundary
    with enhanced vertical vorticity has been noted. Weak steering flow
    and modest storm motions should keep the severe threat fairly
    isolated. Inhibition is also forecast to increase rapidly with the
    loss of diurnal heating this evening. This suggests a WW is not
    needed, though trends will continue to be monitored.
