MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1569
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0225 PM CDT WED JUL 15 2009

AREAS AFFECTED...SRN MO INTO FAR NRN AR

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 151925Z - 152100Z

THE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON.
CONVECTIVE TRENDS ARE BEING MONITORED FOR A POSSIBLE WW.

TSTMS ARE GRADUALLY INTENSIFYING AS OF 1915Z INVOF OF TBN ALONG
SEWD-MOVING COLD FRONT. HERE...LOW-LEVEL MESOSCALE ASCENT IS
APPARENTLY BEING AUGMENTED BY DEEPER FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH AN MCV
MOVING THROUGH CNTRL MO. RUC OBJECTIVE FIELDS INDICATE THAT REGION
IS ON ERN FRINGE OF STEEPER MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATE PLUME...AND WHEN
COUPLED WITH A HOT AND MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER...PRE-FRONTAL AIR MASS
HAS BECOME MODERATE TO STRONGLY UNSTABLE WITH MLCAPE OF 2000-3000
J/KG.

AREA PROFILER AND VWP DATA SHOW THAT LOW-LEVEL WIND FIELDS ARE
RATHER WEAK. BUT...SOME HIGHER MOMENTUM WLY FLOW /35-40 KT/ EXISTS
IN THE 4-6 KM AGL LAYER. GIVEN THE DEGREE OF INSTABILITY...THIS
MODEST MIDLEVEL FLOW SHOULD SUPPORT ORGANIZED MULTICELL CLUSTERS OR
LINE SEGMENTS CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
