MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0062
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1030 PM CST SUN FEB 01 2009

AREAS AFFECTED...PART OF ERN/SERN TX

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 020430Z - 020600Z

LOW-LEVEL FRONTOGENETIC FORCING IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN WITHIN THE
NEXT HOUR OR TWO AS THE FRONT ADVANCES THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
PRE-FRONTAL LOW-LEVEL THERMAL RIDGE...WHERE THE AXIS OF STRONGER
AFTERNOON HEATING OCCURRED. AS A RESULT...SUBSTANTIAL FURTHER
STRENGTHENING OF ONGOING STORMS NEAR THE FRONT APPEARS UNLIKELY.
BUT...ACTIVITY MAY BE SLOW TO WEAKEN LATE THIS EVENING...DUE TO
CONTINUING MID-LEVEL FORCING FOR UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION ON THE
SOUTHERN FRINGE OF A SHORT WAVE TROUGH DIGGING THROUGH THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS...AND AT LEAST A WEAK LOW-LEVEL INFLOW OF MOIST POTENTIALLY
WEAK TO MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIR. ALTHOUGH DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS
SOMEWHAT MODEST...COOL THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES WITH FAIRLY STEEP
MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES COULD CONTINUE TO SUPPORT A RISK FOR HAIL IN
STRONGER STORMS WITHIN BAND SLOWLY APPROACHING THE UPPER TEXAS
COASTAL PLAIN AND SABINE VALLEY THROUGH 06-09Z. SOME OF THIS COULD
BRIEFLY EXCEED SEVERE LIMITS.
