URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH NUMBER 292
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
315 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF

CENTRAL IOWA

EFFECTIVE THIS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING FROM 315 PM UNTIL
900 PM CDT.

HAIL TO 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS TO 70
MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS.

THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 40
STATUTE MILES EAST AND WEST OF A LINE FROM 30 MILES NORTHWEST OF
MASON CITY IOWA TO 25 MILES WEST SOUTHWEST OF LAMONI IOWA. FOR A
COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE THE ASSOCIATED WATCH OUTLINE
UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU2).

REMEMBER...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE
FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN AND CLOSE TO THE WATCH
AREA. PERSONS IN THESE AREAS SHOULD BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR
THREATENING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND LISTEN FOR LATER STATEMENTS
AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAN AND OCCASIONALLY
DO PRODUCE TORNADOES.

OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 290...WW 291...

DISCUSSION...THUNDERSTORMS ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE
ACROSS CENTRAL IA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...ALONG AND AHEAD OF
SURFACE BOUNDARY. MODERATE INSTABILITY AND RATHER STRONG WINDS
ALOFT WILL HELP ORGANIZE STORMS WITH A RISK OF LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS.

AVIATION...A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL SURFACE AND ALOFT
TO 2 INCHES. EXTREME TURBULENCE AND SURFACE WIND GUSTS TO 60
KNOTS. A FEW CUMULONIMBI WITH MAXIMUM TOPS TO 450. MEAN STORM
MOTION VECTOR 25035.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0305 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

VALID 232000Z - 241200Z

..THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF SRN KS...NW OK
AND THE TX PANHANDLE...

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE GREAT
PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST...

..SRN AND CNTRL PLAINS...
AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION IS EVIDENT ON
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND THIS FEATURE WILL MOVE EWD TOWARD THE SRN
PLAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON. 19Z SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY LOCATED FROM NEAR TOPEKA KS EXTENDING SWWD TO NEAR GAGE OK.
A CAPPING INVERSION HAS WEAKENED ACROSS THE CNTRL PLAINS AND THE
CONVECTIVE LINE WILL LIKELY BECOME UNIFORM OVER THE CNTRL PLAINS BY
EARLY EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD ALSO INITIATE IN THE TX
PANHANDLE AND IN WRN OK AS THE CAPPING INVERSION WEAKENS LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. STRONG INSTABILITY...INCREASING VERTICAL SHEAR AND A
STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL JET WILL CREATE FAVORABLE THERMODYNAMIC AND
SHEAR PROFILES FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
MODERATE RISK AREA.

LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS SHOWS A BROAD MID-LEVEL JET LOCATED FROM
NRN NM EXTENDING NEWD ACROSS SE CO AND WRN KS. THIS BAND OF STRONG
MID-LEVEL FLOW IS CREATING 0-6 KM SHEAR VALUES IN THE 40 TO 50 KT
RANGE ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AS SHOWN ON REGIONAL PROFILERS.
THIS COMBINED WITH MLCAPE VALUES OF 2000 TO 3000 J/KG WILL BE
SUFFICIENT FOR SUPERCELLS. THE SUPERCELL THREAT SHOULD BE GREATEST
ACROSS THE TX PANHANDLE WHERE INITIATION WILL BE LATER AND STORM
COVERAGE SHOULD BE MORE SCATTERED IN NATURE. AS THE LOW-LEVEL JET
INCREASES THROUGH EARLY EVENING...A FEW TORNADOES AND VERY LARGE
HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE MOST INTENSE STORMS. AN ENHANCED
TORNADO THEAT MAY DEVELOP ACROSS THE NRN TX PANHANDLE...NW OK AND SW
KS EARLY THIS EVENING AS THE LOW-LEVEL JET INTENSIFIES. A FEW
SUPERCELLS MAY ALSO DEVELOP ALONG THE BOUNDARY IN KS. OTHERWISE...A
MULTICELL THREAT WILL EXIST FURTHER NORTHEAST ALONG THE BOUNDARY
ACROSS CNTRL KS...NE KS AND SW IA WHERE AN LINEAR MCS IS DEVELOPING
ATTM. FRONTAL FORCING AND UNIDIRECTIONAL WINDS JUST ABOVE THE SFC
ARE LIKELY CONTRIBUTING TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS LINEAR MCS. LARGE
HAIL AND ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGER
CELLS IN THE LINE THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING.

..UPPER MIDWEST...
AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY OVER WRN ND WILL
CONTINUE TO LIFT NWD LATE THIS AFTERNOON. AT THE SFC...A COLD FRONT
IS LOCATED ACROSS WRN MN AND WRN IA. THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING
EAST OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS WRN IA...SERN MN AND NW WI. THIS
ACTIVITY IS DEVELOPING ALONG THE WRN EDGE OF AN AXIS OF MODERATE
INSTABILITY WITH MLCAPE VALUES AROUND 1000 J/KG AN A REGION OF
LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE. FOR THIS REASON...THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE
SHOULD CONTINUE TO INCREASE LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH MCS DEVELOPMENT
POSSIBLE ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH EARLY EVENING.

IN ADDITION...A MID-LEVEL JET WAS LOCATED ACROSS THE ERN DAKOTAS
WITH THE EDGE OF STRONGER MID-LEVEL FLOW LOCATED OVER CNTRL MN AND
NW IA. AS A RESULT...MODERATE VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES ARE PRESENT
MAINLY FROM THE FRONT NWWD. THIS SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT FOR AN
ISOLATED SUPERCELL THREAT ESPECIALLY IN THE STRONGER DEEP LAYER
SHEAR NEAR THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED TORNADO THREAT
WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE...THE MAIN THREATS SHOULD BE LARGE HAIL AND
ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE.

AREAS AFFECTED...TX/OK PNHDLS...EXTREME WRN OK...SWRN KS...NERN NM
AND EXTREME SERN CO

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...TORNADO WATCH LIKELY

VALID 231920Z - 232015Z

A DEEPENING CUMULUS FIELD WAS ACCOMPANYING A WWD SURGE OF LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE ACROSS THE SWRN KS...THE TX/OK PNHDLS AND WRN OK. 18Z
AMA/DDC SOUNDINGS WERE STILL CAPPED...BUT STRONG HEATING...UPSLOPE
MOISTURE ADVECTION AND INCREASING CONVERGENCE ALONG THE
CAPROCK/RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES WERE BECOMING INCREASINGLY FAVORABLE FOR
CONVECTIVE INITIATION. LARGER SCALE HEIGHT FALLS WERE STILL
UPSTREAM OVER NRN NM/SCNTRL CO...BUT WILL SPREAD EWD ATOP THE
RETURNING MOISTURE LATER THIS AFTN. UNTIL THEN...THE AFOREMENTIONED
POSITIVES MAY ALONE BE SUFFICIENT FOR AT LEAST ISOLD STORM
INITIATION ACROSS THE CNTRL/ERN TX PNHDL AND EXTREME WRN OK...WITH
MORE WIDESPREAD DEVELOPMENT EXPECTED LATE AFTN/EARLY EVE OVER ALL OF
THE PNHDLS...SERN CO...NERN NM AND SWRN KS.

GENTLY BACKING LOW-LEVEL FLOW WILL BEGIN TO BOOST VERTICAL SHEAR
VALUES THROUGH THE AFTN. VERY STRONG INSTABILITY AND THE INCREASING
SHEAR WILL BE HIGHLY CONDUCIVE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH VERY LARGE HAIL
AND POSSIBLE TORNADOES OVER THE ENTIRE DISCUSSION AREA. THREATS FOR
ISOLD STRONG TORNADOES WILL BE HIGHEST ACROSS SWRN KS SWD INTO PARTS
OF THE CNTRL/ERN TX/OK PNHDLS WHERE MID-60S SFC DEW POINTS WILL

1229 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

VALID 241200Z - 251200Z

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE UPPER
MIDWEST...

..UPPER MIDWEST...
AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW OVER SRN CANADA WILL LIFT NWD TONIGHT AS A
SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVES NEWD ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST THURSDAY. AT
THE SFC...A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SEWD ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST AND
SHOULD BE POSITIONED FROM CNTRL WI EXTENDING SSWWD INTO ERN IA BY
LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON. LARGE-SCALE ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE
UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH AND LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT WILL BE
FAVORABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE
COLD FRONT THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

MODEL FORECASTS MOVE AN 80 KT MID-LEVEL JET ASSOCIATED WITH THE
UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH QUICKLY NNEWD FROM THE CNTRL PLAINS INTO WI BY
LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON. AS A RESULT...A BROAD ZONE OF STRONG
VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES WILL EXIST ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THE
SHEAR SHOULD BE QUITE ADEQUATE FOR ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORMS.
HOWEVER...QUESTIONS REMAIN CONCERNING DESTABILIZATION. CLOUD COVER
FROM THE PREVIOUS NIGHTS CONVECTION COULD LIMIT INSTABILITY ACROSS
MUCH OF THE REGION. IN ADDITION...MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ON FORECAST
SOUNDINGS DO NOT APPEAR PARTICULARLY STEEP THURSDAY WHICH COULD BE
PROBLEMATIC. IF POCKETS OF MODERATE INSTABILITY CAN DEVELOP...THE
STRONG VERTICAL SHEAR COULD BE FAVORABLE FOR A FEW SUPERCELLS WITH
HAIL AND ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE POTENTIAL. IF A LINEAR MCS QUICKLY
ORGANIZES DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON...THEN THE PREFERRED STORM MODE
WOULD BE MULTICELL. IF A LINEAR MCS DEVELOPS...THE VERY STRONG
LOW-LEVEL FLOW AND UNIDIRECTIONAL LOW-LEVEL WIND PROFILES MAY RESULT
IN WIND DAMAGE AS THE PRIMARY THREAT. THE SEVERE THREAT SHOULD
DIMINISH DURING THE EVENING DUE TO THE WEAK INSTABILITY AND
DECREASING LIFT AS THE UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH AND MID-LEVEL JET MOVE
NNEWD AWAY FROM THE REGION.

..SRN AND CNTRL PLAINS....
ENERGY ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE CNTRL PLAINS
WILL MOVE NEWD AWAY FROM THE PLAINS REGION ON THURSDAY. AT THE
SFC...A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SEWD ACROSS ERN KS...CNTRL OK AND WEST
TX. THIS BOUNDARY SHOULD BE THE FOCUS OF CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS THURSDAY.
ALTHOUGH...AREAS OF MODERATE INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY DEVELOP ALONG
AND AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY THURSDAY AFTERNOON...FORECASTS SOUNDINGS
SHOW RELATIVELY WEAK VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES WITH 0-6KM SHEAR OF 20
TO 30 KT. THIS SUGGESTS...THE THREAT FOR ORGANIZED STORM SHOULD
REMAIN LOCALIZED. IF VERTICAL SHEAR IS STRONGER THAN FORECAST ACROSS
PARTS OF THE WARM SECTOR...THEN A CONCENTRATED AREA OF SEVERE COULD
DEVELOP LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON. AN UPGRADE TO SLIGHT RISK ACROSS
PARTS OF THE REGION MAY BE NECESSARY ONCE CERTAINTY INCREASES
CONCERNING THE LOCATION OF MAXIMUMS IN INSTABILITY THURSDAY
AFTERNOON. THE MAIN THREATS WOULD BE LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED WIND
DAMAGE. ANY SEVERE THREAT THAT DEVELOPS WILL LIKELY REMAIN MARGINAL
AND CONCENTRATED NEAR PEAK HEATING.

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 231730Z - 232000Z

SCT TO NMRS TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG A SLOW MOVING COLD
FRONT EXTENDING FROM NEAR OMA NEWD TO JUST WEST OF THE TWIN CITIES
OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. ADDITIONAL TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
AHEAD OF A MCV OVER NERN IA WHILE MOVING INTO WCENTRAL/SWRN WI.
TSTMS IN BOTH AREAS MAY STRENGTHEN SUFFICIENTLY THAT AN ISOLATED
SEVERE WIND/HAIL THREAT MAY DEVELOP. AREA IS BEING MONITORED FOR A
POSSIBLE WW.

RECENT VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATED AREAS OF MOSTLY
CLEAR/PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES HAVE DEVELOPED OVER CENTRAL/NCENTRAL IA.
THIS AREA OF CLEARING SHOULD CONTINUE TO DEVELOP NEWD INTO
SCENTRAL/SERN MN. WITH HEATING AND CONTINUED DESTABILIZATION...
MODERATE INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WITH MLCAPE VALUES FROM
1000-1500 J/KG ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT FROM CENTRAL IA INTO
SCENTRAL MN. GIVEN MODERATE MID LEVEL WINDS /40-50 KTS AT SLATER IA
AND WOOD LAKE MN/...SUFFICIENT VERTICAL SHEAR WILL BE PRESENT TO
SUPPORT SOME ORGANIZED ROTATING UPDRAFTS AND SVR THREAT WITH THE
STRONGEST TSTMS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. FURTHER EAST...VISIBLE SAT
IMAGERY SUGGESTS THE PRESENCE OF AN MVC OVER NCENTRAL IA. TSTMS HAVE
DEVELOPED AHEAD OF THIS MVC OVER NERN IA AND WCENTRAL WI /POSSIBLY
AIDED BY A MODERATE LOW LEVEL JET/. GIVEN THE RECENT SPEED OF THESE
CELLS...ACTIVITY IS LIKELY NOT SURFACE BASED. HOWEVER SUFFICIENT
HEATING MAY OCCUR OVER WRN WI TO SUPPORT THIS ACTIVITY BECOMING
SURFACE BASED WITHIN A FEW HOURS...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED
DMGG WINDS/SVR HAIL GIVEN SIMILAR MODERATE VERTICAL SHEAR IN PLACE

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 231722Z - 231845Z

WEAK FRONT THAT HAS SETTLED SEWD HAS ESSENTIALLY STALLED FROM NEAR
KOMA SWWD THROUGH PRATT KS THEN SWWD INTO EXTREME NWRN OK AND THE
CNTRL TX PNHDL. TSTMS HAVE BEEN GRADUALLY INCREASING ALONG THE KS
PORTION OF THIS FRONT AND WILL LIKELY EXPAND NEWD INTO ERN NEB LATER
AND POSSIBLY INTO EXTREME NWRN OK THROUGH THE AFTN. THIS REGION
RESIDES BENEATH ENTRANCE REGION OF 60-70 KT H5 JET MOVING INTO THE
NRN PLAINS AND WITHIN THE AXIS OF THE SWLY LLJ. GRADUAL HEATING AND
STEEP LAPSE RATES ALOFT WILL RESULT IN STRONGER UPDRAFTS WITH TIME
THROUGH THE AFTN. THOUGH DIRECTIONAL SHEAR WILL REMAIN
MINIMAL...PARTICULARLY THROUGH MID-AFTN FROM NRN KS NWD...SPEED
SHEAR WAS MODEST AND ISOLD CELLS MAY ROTATE GIVING LARGE
HAIL/POSSIBLE HIGH WINDS.

MORE SUBSTANTIAL SEVERE RISK SHOULD DEVELOP UPSTREAM OVER SWRN KS
INTO THE TX/OK PNHDLS REGIONS LATER THIS AFTN/EVE AS A RAPID
RECOVERY TAKES PLACE AHEAD OF THE STRONGER SRN ROCKIES IMPULSE. A
SEPARATE DISCUSSION WILL FOLLOW LATER HIGHLIGHTING THIS REGION AS

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1130 AM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

VALID 231630Z - 241200Z

..THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS OVER PARTS OF THE NORTHERN TX
PANHANDLE...NORTHWEST OK...AND SOUTHWEST KS...

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS FROM NORTHEAST NM INTO WESTERN
IA...

LARGE UPPER TROUGH IS PRESENT THIS MORNING OVER THE WESTERN UNITED
STATES...WITH WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWING STRONG SHORTWAVE TROUGH
MOVING EASTWARD OVER SOUTHEAST UT. THIS FEATURE IS FORECAST TO MOVE
INTO SOUTHERN CO THIS AFTERNOON AND BEGIN AFFECTING THE CENTRAL
HIGH PLAINS. MORNING SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS SURFACE FRONT EXTENDING
ROUGHLY FROM P28-GAG-PVW. COMBINATION OF APPROACHING UPPER TROUGH
AND STRONG HEATING ACROSS TX/OK PANHANDLES WILL RESULT IN RAPID
RETREAT OF BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. BY 00Z...WEST EDGE
OF DEEPER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL LIKELY EXTEND FROM NORTH CENTRAL
TX PANHANDLE NORTHWARD. THIS MAY SET THE STAGE FOR A REGIONAL
OUTBREAK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING FROM THE TX PANHANDLE
INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KS...WITH A RISK OF VERY LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED
STRONG TORNADOES.

..CO...
STRONG DYNAMIC FORCING WILL SPREAD ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS OF SOUTHERN
CO AND INTO THE ADJACENT PLAINS BY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. STRONG
DAYTIME HEATING WILL RESULT IN STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
MARGINAL INSTABILITY /MLCAPE VALUES BELOW 500 J/KG/.
HOWEVER...RATHER COLD THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES AND STRONG VERTICAL
SHEAR WILL PROMOTE A RISK OF STRONG/SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS. ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY INCREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE
AND INTENSITY AS IT SPREADS EASTWARD THROUGH THE EVENING ACROSS
SOUTHEAST CO AND INTO THE WESTERN TX/OK PANHANDLES.

..TX/OK/KS...
OPERATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL MESOSCALE MODEL GUIDANCE GENERALLY
AGREE THAT VERY MOIST/UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL RETURN NORTHWESTWARD
INTO THE TX/OK PANHANDLES AND SOUTHWEST KS BY EARLY EVENING.
SUFFICIENT CAP WILL SUPPRESS DEEP CONVECTION UNTIL AFTER 21Z...WHEN
POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE. AREAL COVERAGE
OF STORMS IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE PARTICULARLY GREAT.
HOWEVER...FORECAST SOUNDINGS IN THIS REGION SHOW IMPRESSIVE
HODOGRAPHS /EFFECTIVE HELICITY VALUES OVER 250 M2/S2 AND EFFECTIVE
SHEAR OF 35-50 KNOTS/ FAVORABLE FOR RAPID SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT.
ANY STORM THAT CAN ANCHOR ALONG RETREATING BOUNDARY WILL ALSO BE IN
ENVIRONMENT OF LOW LCLS AND ENHANCED CONVERGENCE/VORTICITY. STRONG
TORNADOES ARE CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY WITH STORMS ALONG THE
BOUNDARY. OTHERWISE...STORMS WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE AFTER DARK
AS UPPER TROUGH APPROACHES WITH A CONTINUED RISK OF ISOLATED
TORNADOES AND VERY LARGE HAIL.

..KS/NEB/IA...
ISOLATED STRONG/SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE EARLY THIS AFTERNOON
ALONG SURFACE BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM SOUTHEAST NEB INTO CENTRAL KS.
FORECAST SOUNDINGS IN THIS AREA SHOW RELATIVELY STEEP MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES AND MODERATE INSTABILITY...DESPITE RATHER WEAK LARGE
SCALE SUPPORT. LATER TONIGHT...MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS ARE
LIKELY TO OVERSPREAD REGION FROM THE WEST...WITH PERHAPS A GREATER
THREAT OF HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0747 AM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

VALID 231300Z - 241200Z

..THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT FOR
THE NE TX PANHANDLE...NW OK...AND SRN KS...

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS SURROUNDING THE MDT RISK...FROM
THE SRN HIGH PLAINS TO THE MID MO VALLEY...

..SYNOPSIS...
AN INITIAL SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE WRN DAKOTAS WILL LIFT NEWD OVER
MANITOBA AS AN UPSTREAM TROUGH OVER SRN UT/NRN AZ MOVES EWD TO NRN
NM/SRN CO THIS EVENING AND THEN WRN KS LATE TONIGHT. AT THE
SURFACE...A COLD FRONT WILL SLOW ITS SEWD MOVEMENT ACROSS SRN KS/NW
OK/TX PANHANDLE THIS MORNING...AND STALL BY EARLY AFTERNOON. THE
FRONT WILL THEN BEGIN A SLOW RETREAT TO THE N THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING
IN RESPONSE TO CYCLOGENESIS OVER THE HIGH PLAINS IN ADVANCE OF THE
GREAT BASIN SHORTWAVE TROUGH. THIS SURFACE LOW WILL THEN DEVELOP
NEWD INTO NRN KS ALONG THE BAROCLINIC ZONE DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. THE PRIMARY SEVERE STORM THREAT AREAS SHOULD BE ENE OF THE
DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW ALONG THE RETREATING SURFACE FRONT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON...AND TO THE W ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS WITH THE EJECTING
MID LEVEL WAVE BY EARLY TONIGHT.

..NRN TX PANHANDLE/NW OK/SRN KS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT...
THE PRIMARY UNCERTAINTIES THIS AREA WILL BE THE EVENTUAL LOCATION OF
THE SURFACE FRONT BY THIS AFTERNOON...AND THE COVERAGE OF CONVECTION
ALONG THE BOUNDARY BY THIS EVENING. SURFACE OBSERVATIONS SHOW THAT
THE COLD FRONT IS A LITTLE FARTHER SE THAN THE MOST AGGRESSIVE MODEL
FORECASTS...THOUGH OBSERVATIONAL TRENDS OVER THE PAST 2-3 HOURS
SUGGEST THAT MOTION OF THE FRONT HAS SLOWED SUBSTANTIALLY. THERE
ARE ALSO SOME DISCREPANCIES IN HOW QUICKLY THE BOUNDARY RETREATS
LATER TODAY INTO EARLY TONIGHT...WHILE ALMOST ALL MODELS BUT THE 4
KM WRF NMM GENERATE CONVECTION ALONG THE RETREATING FRONT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON.

REGIONAL SOUNDINGS AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS IN THE WARM SECTOR SHOW
BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS OF 64-67 F NEAR AND JUST UPSTREAM FROM THE
MDT RISK AREA. WITH THIS MOISTURE COMES THE POSSIBILITY OF STRATUS
LINGERING INTO THE AFTERNOON ACROSS MUCH OF THE WARM SECTOR...WHICH
MAY DELAY SURFACE HEATING. STILL...AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES IN THE
MID-UPPER 70S WITH MID 60S DEWPOINTS...BENEATH MODEST MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES...SHOULD RESULT IN MLCAPE VALUES OF 2000-2500 J/KG ALONG
THE SURFACE BOUNDARY BY MID-LATE AFTERNOON. MODEL FORECAST
SOUNDINGS...AS WELL AS MODIFIED 12Z SOUNDINGS... SUGGEST THAT SOME
CONVECTIVE INHIBITION WILL PERSIST OVER MUCH OF THE WARM SECTOR.
GIVEN THAT THE STRONGER LARGE SCALE FORCING FOR ASCENT WILL REMAIN
FARTHER W/NW ACROSS NRN NM AND SRN CO...LOW-LEVEL ASCENT ALONG THE
RETREATING FRONT WILL BE NECESSARY FOR STORM INITIATION LATER THIS
AFTERNOON. THE MOST PROBABLE AREA FOR STORM DEVELOPMENT WILL BE
IMMEDIATELY ENE OF THE SURFACE TRIPLE POINT IN THE TX PANHANDLE
AFTER 21Z...WITH CONVECTION EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ENEWD ALONG THE
FRONT INTO NW OK AND SW KS.

A GRADUAL INCREASE IN MID-UPPER LEVEL SWLY FLOW AND BACKING/
STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL FLOW DURING THE EVENING WILL CONTRIBUTE TO
AN INCREASINGLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR SUPERCELLS FROM ABOUT
21-03Z. EXPECT STORMS TO MOVE ALONG THE BOUNDARY DURING THE
EVENING...WITH THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE TORNADOES...VERY LARGE
HAIL...AND DAMAGING WINDS. A COUPLE OF STRONG TORNADOES MAY OCCUR
THIS EVENING GIVEN THE EXPECTED MAGNITUDE OF THE LOW-LEVEL SHEAR
WITH AT LEAST MID 60S BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS.

..NE NM/SE CO INTO WRN KS THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT...
IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE EJECTING MID LEVEL WAVE AND DEVELOPING
SURFACE CYCLONE...FORCING FOR ASCENT WILL INCREASE OVER THE HIGH
PLAINS THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. AT THE SAME TIME...MOISTURE WILL
ATTEMPT TO SPREAD BACK TO THE W/NW. INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY REMAIN
FAIRLY LIMITED OVER THE HIGH PLAINS...BUT STRONG ASCENT AND VERTICAL
SHEAR WILL BOTH HELP COMPENSATE AND SUPPORT A LARGE CONVECTIVE
CLUSTER BEGINNING LATE THIS AFTERNOON IN NM/CO...AND CONTINUING INTO
WRN KS TONIGHT. A MIXTURE OF BOWING SEGMENTS AND EMBEDDED
SUPERCELLS CAN BE EXPECTED WITHIN THE LARGER MCS...AND THE STRONGER
STORMS COULD PRODUCE LARGE HAIL..DAMAGING WINDS...AND PERHAPS A
TORNADO OR TWO.
