MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1920
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0536 PM CDT SAT OCT 02 2010

AREAS AFFECTED...CNTRL AND ERN NM...FAR SRN CO

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 022236Z - 030000Z

A THREAT FOR STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND SMALL HAIL WILL EXIST ACROSS
PARTS OF NM AND FAR SRN CO OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE THREAT
SHOULD REMAIN VERY ISOLATED AND WW ISSUANCE IS NOT ANTICIPATED.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE CURRENTLY ONGOING FROM SANTE FE EWD
ACROSS THE PLAINS OF NE NM WHERE A POCKET OF MODERATE INSTABILITY IS
LOCATED AND SBCAPE VALUES ARE ESTIMATED IN THE 1000 TO 1500 J/KG
RANGE. IN ADDITION...THE TUCUMCARI PROFILER SHOWS ABOUT 35 KT OF
DEEP LAYER SHEAR WHICH SHOULD BE ADEQUATE FOR AT LEAST A MARGINAL
SEVERE THREAT WITH THE MORE INTENSE CORES. STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES EVIDENT ON FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOULD SUPPORT A THREAT FOR
SMALL HAIL. ISOLATED STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
ESPECIALLY WITH THE RELATIVELY DRY BOUNDARY LAYER IN PLACE WHICH MAY
ENHANCE DOWNDRAFT STRENGTH.
