THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 199
CONTINUES.

WIDESPREAD DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUES ALONG AND NORTH OF WELL-DEFINED
CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM NEAR ABI SWWD TO SJT AND THEN WWD
TO FST. MESOSCALE LIFT ACROSS THE BOUNDARY COUPLED WITH LARGE SCALE
ASCENT WITHIN DIFFLUENT FLOW AHEAD OF UPPER LOW WILL MAINTAIN
ORGANIZED MULTICELLULAR ACTIVITY. ONE WELL ESTABLISHED BOWING LINE
SEGMENT...CURRENTLY ENTERING WRN REAGAN COUNTY IN TORNADO WATCH
200...SHOULD CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST INTO SRN PARTS OF SEVERE TSTM
WATCH 199 IN THE NEXT HOUR. THIS ACTIVITY APPEARS FAVORABLY ORIENTED
TO THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY TO MAINTAIN STRONG LOW LEVEL INFLOW AND
SHEAR. UNSTABLE AIR MASS SOUTH AND EAST OF THIS CONVECTION REMAINS
UNPERTURBED SO SEVERE POTENTIAL ACROSS SRN PARTS OF WATCH 199 SHOULD
CONTINUE.

DESPITE MODEST LARGE SCALE SUPPORT FOR UPWARD MOTION OVER NWRN

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0756 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2007

VALID 300100Z - 301200Z

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF WEST...WCNTRL
AND NCNTRL TX...

..WEST/WCNTRL AND NCNTRL TX...
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS AN UPPER-LOW CENTERED NEAR EL PASO
TX WITH A LARGE MCS DEVELOPING OVER WEST AND NORTHWEST TX.
WIDESPREAD LARGE-SCALE ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER-LOW AND
MODERATE INSTABILITY LOCATED ACROSS WEST AND CNTRL TX WILL SUSTAIN
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVERNIGHT. THE MCS SHOULD GRADUALLY MOVE EWD
WITH TIME REACHING THE HILL COUNTRY AND THE VICINITY OF DALLAS/FORT
WORTH BY LATE TONIGHT.

THE LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS SHOWS A 55 KT MID-LEVEL JET MOVING
NEWD AROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER-LOW WITH A BROAD EXIT REGION OF
THE MID-LEVEL JET SPREADING ACROSS WEST-CNTRL TX ATTM. THE MID-LEVEL
JET IS CREATING MODERATE VERTICAL SHEAR ACROSS THE REGION AND THIS
COMBINED WITH THE INSTABILITY IN PLACE WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR
SUPERCELLS. A SEVERE THREAT SHOULD CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AS THE
UPPER-LOW MOVES GRADUALLY EWD.

LATEST WSR-88D VWPS SHOW FAVORABLE LOW-LEVEL SHEAR ACROSS THE REGION
FOR TORNADOES. LOW-LEVEL SHEAR ON THE DEL RIO TX 00Z SOUNDING IS
IMPRESSIVE AND THIS SUGGESTS THE GREATEST TORNADO THREAT WILL EXIST
FROM THE DEL RIO TX AREA EXTENDING NWD TO NEAR SAN ANGELO TX THIS
EVENING. IN ADDITION...THE 00Z DEL RIO TX SOUNDING SHOWS STEEP
MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AROUND 8.0 C/KM WITH 0-6 KM SHEAR VALUES
AROUND 40 KT. THIS APPEARS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ENVIRONMENT ACROSS
WCNTRL TX AND LARGE HAIL SHOULD ACCOMPANY SUPERCELLS THIS EVENING
AND POSSIBLY OVERNIGHT. THE GREATEST THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL SHOULD
EXIST OVERNIGHT IN THE DEL RIO AND EAGLE PASS TX AREAS AS LAPSE
RATES AND VERTICAL SHEAR INCREASE DUE TO THE EJECTING MID-LEVEL JET.
ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WITH THE MORE ORGANIZED
STORM CLUSTERS AND BOWING LINE-SEGMENTS OVERNIGHT.

..MT AND WRN ND...
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS WNWLY FLOW ACROSS THE NRN ROCKIES
AND A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS LIKELY PRESENT IN THE FLOW. MODEL
FORECASTS IDENTIFY THIS TROUGH AND MOVE THE TROUGH EWD ACROSS THE
REGION THIS EVENING. LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS SHOWS A POCKET OF
MODERATE INSTABILITY LOCATED ACROSS CNTRL MT WHERE MLCAPE VALUES ARE
CURRENTLY AROUND 1000 J/KG. LARGE-SCALE ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE
APPROACHING SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND THE INSTABILITY CURRENTLY PRESENT
SHOULD RESULT IN AN INCREASE OF THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE THIS EVENING.
A CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP AND MOVE EWD ACROSS ERN MT
INTO WRN ND DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD.

FORECAST SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING SHOW STRONG
VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES ASSOCIATED WITH A MID-LEVEL JET OVER THE NRN
ROCKIES AND SRN CANADA. IN ADDITION...LOW TO MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES
ARE STEEP AND SFC TEMP-DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS ARE LARGE. THIS SHOULD
RESULT IN HIGH-BASED THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG GUSTY
WINDS AND HAIL. AS THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVES EWD OVERNIGHT...A
MARGINAL SEVERE THREAT MAY AFFECT AREAS AS FAR EAST AS DICKINSON ND
ALONG THE I-94 CORRIDOR.

..UPPER MIDWEST...
LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS A COLD FRONT EXTENDING WSWWD ACROSS SRN WI
INTO NRN IA. AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AN AXIS OF INSTABILITY IS PRESENT
FROM CNTRL IA EXTENDING ENEWD INTO NW IL AND SRN WI. OBJECTIVE
ANALYSIS CURRENTLY SHOWS A LOW-LEVEL JET AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING IN THE ENTRANCE REGION OF
THIS LOW-LEVEL JET. IN ADDITION...THE DAVENPORT IA 00Z SOUNDING
SHOWS A VEERED WIND PROFILE WITH VERY STEEP LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES
NEAR 9.0 C/KM. THIS WILL BE ENOUGH FOR A MARGINAL WIND DAMAGE THREAT
THIS EVENING AS STORMS MOVE ESEWD ACROSS THE REGION. MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES ALSO APPEAR SUFFICIENT FOR HAIL WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS. THE
THREAT SHOULD DIMINISH THIS EVENING AS TEMPS COOL AND INSTABILITY
DROPS ACROSS THE REGION.

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
TORNADO WATCH NUMBER 200
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
745 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2007

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

SOUTHWEST TEXAS

EFFECTIVE THIS SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING FROM 745 PM UNTIL
300 AM CDT.

TORNADOES...HAIL TO 3 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND
GUSTS TO 70 MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE
AREAS.

THE TORNADO WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 55 STATUTE
MILES EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 20 MILES SOUTH SOUTHWEST OF
HONDO TEXAS TO 60 MILES NORTHWEST OF DRYDEN TEXAS. FOR A
COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE THE ASSOCIATED WATCH OUTLINE
UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU0).

REMEMBER...A TORNADO WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR
TORNADOES AND 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.

OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...THIS TORNADO WATCH REPLACES TORNADO
WATCH NUMBER 198. WATCH NUMBER 198 WILL NOT BE IN EFFECT AFTER
745 PM CDT. CONTINUE...WW 199...

DISCUSSION...WARM/MOIST AND VERY UNSTABLE AIR MASS FROM THE
TRANS-PECOS REGION SEWD ALONG THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND SRN EDGE OF
THE EDWARDS PLATEAU IS EXPECTED TO SUPPORT A CONTINUATION OF STRONG
TO SEVERE TSTMS TONIGHT. THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE FURTHER SUSTAINED AS
LARGE SCALE DIFFLUENCE...AHEAD OF AN UPPER LOW...SPREADS EWD ATOP
THE UNSTABLE WARM SECTOR. LOW LEVEL SELY FLOW TOPPED BY
STRENGTHENING WLY FLOW ALOFT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO SHEAR PROFILES
FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH LARGE HAIL. TORNADO POTENTIAL WILL
ALSO EXIST GIVEN ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND LOW LEVEL
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR.

AVIATION...TORNADOES AND A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL
SURFACE AND ALOFT TO 3 INCHES. EXTREME TURBULENCE AND SURFACE
WIND GUSTS TO 60 KNOTS. A FEW CUMULONIMBI WITH MAXIMUM TOPS TO
500. MEAN STORM MOTION VECTOR 23020.

CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 198...

VALID 300025Z - 300130Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 198 CONTINUES.

SEVERAL CLUSTERS OF INTENSE CONVECTION CONTINUE ACROSS PARTS OF THE
LOWER PECOS VALLEY AND THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF NORTHERN MEXICO SOUTH
OF THE BIG BEND REGION. MANY OF THESE STORMS HAVE A HISTORY OF
LARGE HAIL AND LONG-LIVED SUPERCELL STRUCTURES. MODEL GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS THAT THREAT WILL CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL MORE HOURS AS UPPER
LOW NEAR ELP DRIFTS EASTWARD AND STRONGER WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT
OVERSPREADS THE RISK AREA. 00Z DRT SOUNDING INDICATES THERMODYNAMIC
AND KINEMATIC PARAMETERS VERY FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS AND LARGE
HAIL /MLCAPE OVER 1500 J/KG AND EFFECTIVE SHEAR OF 40 KNOTS/ IF
STORMS CAN MOVE OFF THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF NORTHERN MEXICO AND ACROSS
THE RIO GRANDE INTO SOUTH TX. INCREASING SOUTHEASTERLY LOW LEVEL
FLOW THROUGH THE EVENING MAY ALSO CONTINUE TO POSE A RISK OF
ISOLATED TORNADOES.

WITH THESE IDEAS IN MIND...A NEW TORNADO WATCH IS LIKELY BEFORE 01Z
TO REPLACE WW 198...AND TO EXTEND FARTHER SOUTHEAST ALONG THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY.

VALID 292334Z - 300100Z

CONDITIONS MAY BECOME MORE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE STORMS ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE LOWER RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND THE SRN EDGE OF THE
EDWARDS PLATEAU THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING. A WATCH IS POSSIBLE
ACROSS THE AREA IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

STRONG DIFFLUENT MID/UPPER LEVEL FLOW WITHIN SOUTHEAST QUADRANT OF
SLOW-MOVING LOW WILL TRANSITION EAST ACROSS A VERY UNSTABLE WARM
SECTOR SITUATED OVER SCNTRL TX THROUGH TONIGHT. CURRENTLY...AREAS OF
INTENSE CONVECTION WERE ONGOING ACROSS WEST TX...ALONG AND NORTH OF
A WELL-DEFINED OUTFLOW/COLD POOL BOUNDARY THAT ARCS SWWD AND THEN
WWD FROM NWRN TX TO THE TRANS-PECOS REGION. MORE WIDELY SCATTERED
ACTIVITY...BUT A FEW PERSISTENT SUPERCELLS...EXIST SOUTH OF THE
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY...FROM FORT STOCKTON SOUTH ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE
INTO COAHUILA MEXICO.

GIVEN PRONOUNCED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE FLUX ON SELY/UPSLOPE LOW LEVEL
FLOW ACROSS THE REGION...AND ONLY WEAK TO MODEST CAPPING...IT IS
EXPECTED THAT AT LEAST SOME OF THE ONGOING ACTIVITY WILL MAINTAIN
INTENSITY WHILE DEVELOPING EAST WITH THE UPPER FORCING THROUGH THIS
EVENING. SLOW EWD PROGRESSION OF THE UPPER LOW MAY KEEP THE GREATER
SEVERE POTENTIAL EAST OF SAN ANTONIO AREA UNTIL LATE.
HOWEVER...PATTERN DOES APPEAR SUPPORTIVE OF FORWARD PROPAGATING
SEVERE MCS WITH WIND/HAIL AND TORNADO THREATS IF CONVECTIVE COVERAGE
CONTINUES TO INCREASE ACROSS NRN MEXICO AND THE TRANS-PECOS REGIONS.
THIS SCENARIO WILL CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED AND A WATCH MAY BE
NEEDED WITHIN AN HOUR OR TWO.

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF SW...SCNTRL
TX...

..TRANSPECOS/EDWARDS PLATEAU/SRN AND CNTRL TX AND SRN NM...
MID-LEVEL DRY SLOT WRAPPING ALONG ERN PERIPHERY OF THE NRN MEXICAN
UPR LOW ALLOWED STRONG INSOLATION TO RAPIDLY WARM THE BOUNDARY LAYER
ACROSS THE BIG BEND REGION NWD INTO THE TRANSPECOS. MOIST SELY
UPSLOPE FLOW INTO THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND STRONG HEATING BENEATH
STEEP LAPSE RATES ALOFT HAVE BEEN FAVORABLE FOR DEEP MOIST
CONVECTION. THESE STORMS HAVE MOVED NWD INTO THE PERMIAN BASIN
REGION AT MID-AFTN. MOST OF THE TSTMS HAVE WEAKENED...BUT
MAINTENANCE OF STRONG STORMS HAS BEEN FAVORING PARTS OF THE BIG
COUNTRY WHERE MORE SFC HEATING HAS OCCURRED ON NW PERIPHERY OF
HIGHER PWAT VALUES. THESE STORMS MAY PRODUCE ISOLD DAMAGING WINDS
INTO PARTS OF WRN N TX LATE THIS AFTN.

NEXT VORTICITY LOBE WAS ROTATING NEWD TOWARD THE BIG BEND AND FAR W
TX WHERE AIR MASS HAS WARMED IN WAKE OF THE EARLIER STORMS. AS A
RESULT...TSTMS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP OVER/MOVE INTO SWRN TX LATER THIS
AFTN AND AT POINTS FARTHER N OVERNIGHT.

STRONGEST BELT OF FLOW WRAPPING AROUND THE UPR LOW WAS ARCING FROM
NRN COAHUILA/CHIHUAHUA INTO THE BIG BEND REGION...WITH VERTICAL
SHEAR SUFFICIENT FOR SUPERCELL STRUCTURES GIVEN ESELY SFC FLOW.
LARGE HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY SVR THREAT...BUT...A TORNADO OR TWO
CANNOT BE RULED OUT AS THE STORMS MATURE OVER THE STOCKTON PLATEAU.

FARTHER NW...FLOW ALOFT WAS WEAKER CLOSER TO THE CORE OF THE UPR
LOW. BUT...LAPSE RATES WERE QUITE STEEP AND INJECTION OF LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE FROM THE EAST AND SOME HEATING WILL CONTRIBUTE TO

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
TORNADO WATCH NUMBER 198
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1235 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2007

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

SOUTHWEST TEXAS

EFFECTIVE THIS SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING FROM 1235 PM UNTIL
800 PM CDT.

TORNADOES...HAIL TO 1.5 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND
GUSTS TO 70 MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE
AREAS.

THE TORNADO WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 60 STATUTE
MILES NORTH AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM 55 MILES NORTH NORTHWEST OF
MARFA TEXAS TO 40 MILES NORTH NORTHEAST OF DEL RIO TEXAS. FOR A
COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE THE ASSOCIATED WATCH OUTLINE
UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU8).

REMEMBER...A TORNADO WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR
TORNADOES AND 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.

DISCUSSION...MID LEVEL LOW OVER NRN MEXICO WILL EJECT SLOWLY ENEWD
TOWARD THE BIG BEND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. INCREASING MID LEVEL
SWLY FLOW WILL OVERSPREAD THE BIG BEND AND LOWER PECOS VALLEY ABOVE
LOW-LEVEL ESELY FLOW...WHILE THE MID LEVEL DRY SLOT WILL ALLOW
POCKETS OF STRONGER SURFACE HEATING/DESTABILIZATION. EXPECT
ADDITIONAL STORMS TO FORM THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND
SPREAD NWD/NEWD...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SUPERCELLS WITH LARGE HAIL
AND ISOLATED DAMAGING WINDS. ADDITIONALLY...SUBSTANTIAL MOISTURE
AND BUOYANCY IN THE LOW LEVELS...ALONG WITH THE SUPERCELL WIND
PROFILE...COULD SUPPORT A COUPLE OF TORNADOES.

AVIATION...TORNADOES AND A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL
SURFACE AND ALOFT TO 1.5 INCHES. EXTREME TURBULENCE AND SURFACE
WIND GUSTS TO 60 KNOTS. A FEW CUMULONIMBI WITH MAXIMUM TOPS TO
500. MEAN STORM MOTION VECTOR 22020.

..UPR MS RVR VLY/CORN BELT...
UPR WAVE NOW CROSSING ONTARIO WILL ARRIVE IN NEW ENGLAND MONDAY. IN
WAKE OF THIS IMPULSE...A FRONT WILL SETTLE SWD TONIGHT AND BE
LOCATED FROM THE MID-OH VLY NWWD TO THE UPR MS RVR VLY. FAST BELT
OF WLYS WILL REMAIN ALONG THE NRN TIER OF THE COUNTRY ON MONDAY WITH
THE NEXT IN A SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS MOVING FROM THE PAC NW
TODAY INTO THE UPR MS RVR VLY BY MONDAY EVENING.

STRONG ELEVATED MIXED LAYER WILL ADVECT EWD ACROSS THE CNTRL PLAINS
INTO THE UPR MS RVR VLY ALONG/S OF THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT WITH H85
TEMPS AOA 20 DEG C INTO THE CORN BELT. BENEATH THIS EML...BOUNDARY

THE SHORT TERM MODELS. NONETHELESS...BOUNDARY LAYER WILL HEAT
CONSIDERABLY FROM NEB NEWD INTO IA AND SRN MN...WEAKENING INHIBITION
THROUGH MONDAY AFTN. AS WEAK LARGE SCALE HEIGHT FALLS ASSOCD WITH
APPROACHING IMPULSE SPREAD ESEWD...A SFC LOW WILL STRENGTHEN ALONG
THE BAROCLINIC ZONE. INCREASING CONVERGENCE MAY PROVE SUFFICIENT
FOR CONVECTIVE INITIATION OVER SWRN/SCNTRL MN BY LATE AFTN.
ACTIVITY MAY GROW UPSCALE INTO A TSTM CLUSTER OR TWO AND MOVE SEWD
INTO NRN IA AND EXTREME SWRN WI DURING THE EVE.

BULK SHEAR IN THE LOWEST 6KM IN THE 40-45 KT RANGE WILL BE FAVORABLE
FOR SUPERCELLS WITH LARGE HAIL. HODOGRAPHS WILL BE LARGELY
UNIDIRECTIONAL AND THE NATURE OF WEAK FORCING WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR
POSSIBLE DISCRETE SPLITTING CELLS. A TORNADO OR TWO MAY BE POSSIBLE
FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF TIME DURING THE LATE AFTN/EARLY EVE.

ACTIVITY SHOULD DEVELOP EWD AND WEAKEN DURING THE OVERNIGHT ACROSS
THE UPR MIDWEST/CNTRL GRTLKS REGION. OTHER STORMS MAY
FORM/BACKBUILD WWD ALONG A STRENGTHENING COLD FRONT THAT WILL SWEEP
SEWD ACROSS CNTRL/SRN IA AND PARTS OF NEB. ISOLD DAMAGING
WINDS/HAIL MAY ACCOMPANY THESE STORMS.

..CNTRL/WRN/SCNTRL TX...
UPR LOW APPROACHING THE BIG BEND REGION WILL CONTINUE ENEWD INTO THE
SRN PLAINS ON MONDAY. TSTMS WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING ACROSS MUCH OF
CNTRL TX AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD. THESE STORMS WILL DEVELOP
NWD INTO OK THROUGH THE DAY AND LIKELY MAINTAIN COOL BOUNDARY LAYER
FROM EXTREME N TX/OK. BINOVC FARTHER S WILL RESULT IN INCREASING
INSTABILITY ACROSS MUCH OF CNTRL/WRN/SCNTRL TX DURING THE AFTN.

DRIER WLY MID-LEVEL FLOW WILL SPREAD FROM SWRN TX INTO CNTRL TX
DURING THE DAY...WITH DRYLINE/SFC TROUGH LIKELY THE IMPETUS FOR MORE
STORMS DURING PEAK HEATING. VERTICAL SHEAR WILL BE MARGINALLY
SUPPORTIVE FOR SUPERCELLS...SLIGHTLY STRONGER ACROSS SCNTRL TX.
PRIND THAT AFTN STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING
WINDS AND PERHAPS A COUPLE OF TORNADOES.

..MIDWEST-CNTRL APPALACHIANS...
WNWLY FLOW REGIME ALOFT WILL LIKELY CARRY TSTM CLUSTERS SEWD FROM
THE UPR MIDWEST SEWD INTO THE REGION MON-MON NIGHT. MODELS ARE
LIKELY OVERESTIMATING BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE/INSTABILITY UPSTREAM
IN THE SOURCE REGION AND THIS WILL IMPACT ANTICIPATED BUOYANCY
FARTHER SE. BUT...AT LEAST WEAK INSTABILITY AND KINEMATIC PROFILES
SUGGEST THERE WILL BE AT LEAST A LOW PROBABILITY FOR AN ORGANIZED
STORM OR TWO WITH HAIL/HIGH WINDS FROM PARTS OF OH INTO WV MON
AFTN/EVE.

CLOUDS AND CONVECTION HAVE BEEN RATHER WIDESPREAD OVERNIGHT INTO
THIS MORNING ACROSS SW TX IN ADVANCE OF THE MID LEVEL LOW OVER NW
MEXICO WHICH IS BEGINNING TO MOVE ENEWD. IN THE WAKE OF THIS
CONVECTION...THERE WILL BE SOME POTENTIAL FOR SURFACE
HEATING/DESTABILIZATION WITH CLOUD BREAKS IN THE MID LEVEL DRY SLOT
SPREADING NEWD OVER SW TX. THE MORE PROBABLE AREAS FOR
DESTABILIZATION AND STORM INITIATION WILL BE NEAR AND JUST NE OF THE
HIGHER TERRAIN FROM JUST W OF DRT INTO THE AREA IMMEDIATELY N OF THE
BIG BEND THIS AFTERNOON. BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S
SPREADING WNWWD UP THE RIO GRANDE AND LOWER PECOS VALLEYS...ALONG
WITH GRADUALLY INCREASING SWLY MID LEVEL FLOW...SHOULD SUPPORT THE
FORMATION OF A COUPLE OF SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING WIDELY
SCATTERED LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS...AND PERHAPS A TORNADO OR TWO.

..MT AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY TONIGHT...
A MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER NW WA WILL MOVE THROUGH THE MEAN
RIDGE AXIS AND OVER MT AND SRN ALBERTA/SASKATCHEWAN BY TONIGHT.
ASCENT WITH THIS WAVE WILL BE FOCUSED ALONG THE ACCOMPANYING COLD
FRONT THAT WILL MOVE ACROSS MT LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT.
LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE IS QUITE LIMITED IN ADVANCE OF THIS SYSTEM...AND
ANY INSTABILITY THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING WILL BE DRIVEN PRIMARILY BY
WARM SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND RESULTANT STEEP LAPSE RATES/DEEP MIXED
LAYERS. GIVEN THE FOCUSED ASCENT...STEEP LAPSE RATES...AND STRONG
VERTICAL SHEAR...A FEW HIGH-BASED STORMS COULD PRODUCE ISOLATED
DAMAGING WINDS LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY TONIGHT.

..UPPER MS VALLEY...
A STRONG MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER WRN ONTARIO WILL AMPLIFY
AND MOVE ESEWD TOWARD QUEBEC BY TONIGHT. IN THE WAKE OF THIS MID
LEVEL WAVE AND AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE CYCLONE...A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE SEWD FROM CENTRAL MN INTO NRN IA/SRN WI BY LATE EVENING.
RECENT FORECASTS FROM THE NAM/GFS HAVE SHOWN UNREALISTIC MOISTENING
IN THE LOW-MID TROPOSPHERE FROM ERN NEB INTO SRN WI BY LATE
AFTERNOON...WHERE SURFACE DEWPOINTS ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE TO THE
UPPER 50S AND EVEN LOW-MID 60S. REGIONAL 12Z SOUNDINGS AND SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS SHOW NO SUPPORT FOR THIS SCENARIO BASED ON A VERY
SHALLOW NOCTURNAL BOUNDARY LAYER WITH ONLY UPPER 40S DEWPOINTS AND
MUCH DRIER AIR ALOFT...AND PW VALUES AROUND 0.60 INCHES. THE 12Z
SOUNDINGS DO SHOW THE POTENTIAL FOR AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES INTO THE
MID 80S WITH A DEEP MIXED LAYER...AND MLCAPE AOB 500 J/KG BASED ON
MEAN DEWPOINTS NEAR 50 F. THEREFORE...ISOLATED/HIGH-BASED STORMS
MAY FORM ALONG THE FRONT THIS EVENING FROM NRN IA INTO SRN
WI...WHERE WIND PROFILES WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS.
HOWEVER...CONFIDENCE IN STORM INITIATION/COVERAGE IS LOW...AND WILL
MAINTAIN ONLY LOW CONDITIONAL PROBABILITIES FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND
HAIL.

SLOW MOVING UPPER LOW WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THIS AREA AS IT SLOWLY SHIFTS ENEWD AND BEGINS
TO EVOLVE INTO AN OPEN TROUGH OVER WRN TX THROUGH THE PERIOD.
INFLUX OF RELATIVELY RICH GULF MOISTURE REMAINS EVIDENT THIS MORNING

SURFACE DEW POINTS AOA 65F WILL LIKELY REMAIN IN PLACE. IN
ADDITION...MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN STEEP WITHIN
PERSISTENT FEED OF WARM/DRY ELEVATED MIX LAYER OUT OF N-CENTRAL
MEXICO. THIS WILL SUSTAIN AXIS OF MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY IN
A NARROW AXIS NEAR AND SOUTH OF SURFACE WARM FRONT NOW EXTENDING
WSWWD ACROSS THE HILL COUNTRY TO WEAK LOW CENTER SE OF MRF. THIS
BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY BECOME MORE DIFFUSE THROUGH THE DAY...THOUGH

COMPLICATED FORECAST ACROSS THIS REGION WITH STRONG MID/UPPER LEVEL
WLY FLOW AND STEEP LAPSE RATES SUPPORTING AT LEAST A CONDITIONAL
THREAT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AS LARGE SCALE ASCENT INCREASES AND

CONTINUE TO INCREASE SURFACE DEW POINTS ALMOST 10 DEGREES DURING THE

MAY BE MORE REASONABLE IN ACTUALLY DROPPING SURFACE DEW POINTS
WITHIN STRONG DIURNAL MIXING AND WLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW REGIME TODAY.
SHOULD THIS SCENARIO UNFOLD...DEEP CONVECTION /ESPECIALLY ANY
SUPPORTIVE OF SEVERE WEATHER/ WILL BE MUCH LESS LIKELY ACROSS THIS

AS MENTIONED IN ABOVE SECTION OVER MT...CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTIES

APPEARS DEEP MIXING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WILL TEND TO OFFSET ANY
ADVECTIVE MOISTENING WITHIN THE BOUNDARY LAYER AND HINDER MUCH IF
ANY CONVECTIVE INSTABILITY TODAY. DEEPLY MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER AND
STRONG SHEAR WILL BE MORE THAN ADEQUATE FOR SUSTAINED

VALID 011200Z - 021200Z

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE OHIO
VALLEY....

..SYNOPSIS...
MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE THRU THE GREAT LAKES REGION AND
AMPLIFY SLIGHTLY AS RIDGE BUILDS UPSTREAM OVER THE NRN AND CENTRAL
ROCKIES. SURFACE LOW WILL BEGIN OVER NERN INDIANA/SWRN LOWER MI AT
THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD AND MOVE EWD INTO NRN NJ BY
2/12Z...TAKING COLD FRONT SSEWD THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY REGION.

..CENTRAL INDIANA INTO SWRN PA...

WARM SECTOR WILL BECOME ESTABLISHED OVER THE OHIO VALLEY AS WARM
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL EXTEND EWD ACROSS NRN OH INTO CENTRAL PA.
SOUTH OF THIS BOUNDARY...AIR MASS WILL DESTABILIZE WITH SFC DEW
POINTS ESTIMATED IN THE LOW/MID 60S. NAM SOUNDINGS INDICATE WITH
TEMPERATURES IN THE UPR 70S TO AROUND 80...AND DEW POINTS IN THE LOW
60S WOULD GIVE MLCAPE AROUND 2500 J/KG. WITH WSWLY LOW LEVEL FLOW
AT 30-40 KT ACROSS THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY AND WNWLY 30-50 KT MID
LEVEL FLOW...FAVORABLE SHEAR PROFILES ARE EXPECTED SUPPORTING STRONG
UPDRAFTS AND A LINE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG/JUST AHEAD OF THE
SEWD MOVING COLD FRONT TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 7.5C/KM BY AFTERNOON
WITH SFC-3KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITY ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 250 M2/S2.
THIS ALSO SUPPORTS ISOLATED SUPERCELLS...SO WOULD EXPECT THAT MUCH
OF THIS ACTIVITY MAY PRODUCE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS DURING
THIS PERIOD.

..SOUTHERN PLAINS...

MID LEVEL TROUGH THAT HAS BEEN PERSISTENT THRU THE DAY1 AND DAY2
PERIODS IS EXPECTED TO FILL GRADUALLY AS NEXT MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
MOVES EWD ACROSS THE NRN BAJA AND NWRN MEXICO. RESIDUAL MOISTURE
COMBINED WITH LIMITED DAYTIME HEATING MAY PRESENT SUFFICIENT
THERMODYNAMIC SUPPORT FOR ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
AREA.

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 290559Z - 290800Z

CLUSTER OF MOSTLY MULTICELLULAR TSTMS -- PERHAPS INCLUDING SOME
INTERMITTENT/LEFT-MOVING SUPERCELLULAR MORPHOLOGY -- SHOULD CONTINUE
TO MOVE NWD/NNWWD FROM NERN COAHUILA ACROSS RIO GRANDE. THIS
ACTIVITY SHOULD AFFECT PORTIONS NWRN WEBB...DIMMIT...MAVERICK AND
ZAVALA COUNTIES THROUGH 830Z. LARGE HAIL WILL BE MAIN THREAT...WITH
ISOLATED STG GUSTS ALSO POSSIBLE. WW NOT ANTICIPATED ATTM BECAUSE
OF LIMITED AREAL/TEMPORAL COVERAGE OF THREAT.

SFC ANALYSIS INDICATES WARM FRONT EXTENDING EWD FROM NRN SERRANIAS
DEL BURRO RANGE IN MEX...EWD ACROSS DRT AREA...THEN EWD THROUGH NRN
FRINGES SAT/HOU AREAS. THIS FRONT MAY DRIFT NWD...AND WILL CONTINUE
TO MARK NRN EDGE OF SFC-BASED EFFECTIVE LIFTED PARCELS. MODIFIED
RUC SOUNDINGS SUGGEST MLCAPES 1000-1500 J/KG WILL PERSIST THROUGH
ANOTHER COUPLE HOURS OF GRADUAL SFC DIABATIC COOLING...THIS BUOYANCY
BEING SUPPORTED GREATLY BY UPPER 60S F SFC DEW POINTS. SFC THETAE
WILL CONTINUE TO DROP MARKEDLY N OF FRONT...LEADING TO MORE ELEVATED
UPDRAFTS AND LIKELY WEAKENING OF ACTIVITY FROM LATITUDE OF ABOUT
DRT-HDO NWD. ONGOING ACTIVITY IS MOVING LEFTWARD OF THAT PORTION OF
HODOGRAPH ABOVE 2 KM...HOWEVER DRT VWP AND RUC SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
CONSIDERABLE TURNING IN LOW LEVEL WINDS THAT YIELD CURVING 0-2 KM
HODOGRAPHS...AND POSITIVE SRH EVEN FOR LEFT-MOVING STORMS.
ADDITIONAL TSTMS APPEAR TO BE DEVELOPING W OF MOST INTENSE ACTIVITY
AS OF 545Z...AND THIS ACTIVITY EVENTUALLY MAY AFFECT PORTIONS
KINNEY/SRN VAL VERDE COUNTIES.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1255 AM CDT SUN APR 29 2007

VALID 291200Z - 301200Z

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS MUCH OF SW TX AND THE
RIO GRANDE VALLEY...

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS OVER A SMALL PART OF THE UPPER
MS VALLEY...

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS PARTS OF
WRN...CNTRL...AND ERN MT...

..SYNOPSIS...
SRN STREAM MID/UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL TRACK GENERALLY EWD FROM NRN
MEXICO ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND WEST TX THIS PERIOD WITH A
BAND OF 35-40KT 500MB FLOW AND 40-60M 12H HEIGHT FALLS SPREADING
FROM THE BIG BEND/TRANS-PECOS REGIONS TOWARD CNTRL TX THROUGH SUNDAY
NIGHT. PERSISTENT SELY LOW-LEVEL FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM
WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT ABUNDANT LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE NWWD UP THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY AND INTO THE REGION OF LARGE SCALE ASCENT.

A BELT OF FAST WLY FLOW EXISTS WELL NORTH OF THE SRN STREAM
LOW...ALONG THE NRN BORDER STATES FROM THE PACIFIC TO THE EAST
COAST. A PAIR OF SHORT WAVE TROUGHS EMBEDDED WITHIN THIS FAST NRN
STREAM WILL PLAY A ROLE IN TSTM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE PERIOD. THE
LEADING IMPULSE IS FORECAST TO AMPLIFY WHILE DEVELOPING SEWD FROM
CNTRL CANADA ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES AND INTO THE NORTHEAST THROUGH
MONDAY MORNING. THE COLD FRONT TRAILING FROM THE ASSOCIATED
DEEPENING SURFACE LOW OVER ONTARIO/QUEBEC WILL SPREAD SEWD ACROSS
THE UPPER MS VALLEY THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...INTO THE ERN GREAT
LAKES TONIGHT...AND THEN ACROSS NEW ENGLAND EARLY MONDAY.

A LOWER-AMPLITUDE UPSTREAM DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE QUICKLY FROM THE
PACIFIC NORTHWEST ACROSS THE NRN ROCKIES THROUGH LATE TODAY. MODEST
HEIGHT FALLS AND STRENGTHENING DEEP-LAYER WIND FIELDS WILL ACCOMPANY
THIS SYSTEM FROM THE INTERIOR NORTHWEST ACROSS MT THROUGH TONIGHT.

..RIO GRANDE VALLEY/WEST TX...
DESPITE THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTIVE DEBRIS AND PRECIPITATION
INHABITING GREATER DESTABILIZATION...STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
POCKETS OF STRONGER HEATING WILL PROVE ADEQUATE FOR WIDESPREAD
CONVECTION ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA TODAY. MOIST LOW LEVEL
SELY/UPSLOPE FLOW...AND MODEST TO STRONG LARGE SCALE LIFT WITH THE
MID/UPPER LOW WILL SUSTAIN THIS ACTIVITY...WHICH WILL LIKELY EXPAND
EWD ACROSS MUCH OF CNTRL/SRN TX THROUGH MONDAY. MOST SUPPORTIVE
CROSSOVER FLOW AND DEEP-LAYER SHEAR FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION IS
FORECAST TO BE CONFINED TO AREAS FROM THE TRANS-PECOS AND BIG BEND
AREAS SEWD ALONG THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY WHERE BAND OF STRONGER MID
LEVEL FLOW WILL PASS OVER GREATER POTENTIAL INSTABILITY THROUGH
EVENING. SUPERCELLS APPEAR POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS WHILE MORE
WIDESPREAD MULTICELLULAR STORMS OCCUR FARTHER NORTH...PERHAPS
EMBEDDED WITHIN LARGER CONVECTIVE CLOUD/RAIN SHIELD. LARGE HAIL AND
HEAVY RAIN APPEAR TO BE THE PRIMARY HAZARDS ACROSS THE AREA.
HOWEVER...TORNADO/WIND POTENTIAL WILL ALSO EXIST WITH ANY
SUPERCELL...ESPECIALLY CELLS ENCOUNTERING RESIDUAL DIFFERENTIAL
HEATING/OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES.

..NRN ROCKIES/MT...
AS LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND DEEP-LAYER WIND FIELDS INCREASE ACROSS THE
INTERIOR NORTHWEST AND CONTINENTAL DIVIDE...LEE-SIDE PRESSURE FALLS
AND HEATING OVER HIGHER TERRAIN WILL CONTRIBUTE TO 700-500MB LAPSE
RATES IN EXCESS OF 8C/KM ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION DURING THE
AFTERNOON. LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND GPS PW OBSERVATIONS
INDICATE A GRADUAL INCREASE TO MID/UPPER MOISTURE ACROSS THE NRN
GREAT BASIN AND NRN ROCKIES. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE PLUME WITH 40-45F
DEWPOINTS IS FORECAST TO SPREAD WWD TOWARD THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND
CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF MODESTLY CAPPED MUCAPE OF 500-800
J/KG.

STRENGTHENING LEE-LOW/TROUGH AND DYNAMIC FORCING BENEATH ENTRANCE
REGION OF UPPER JET SHOULD OVERCOME CAPPING/INHIBITION AND AID
HIGH-BASED CONVECTIVE INITIATION IN THE 21-00Z TIME FRAME. GIVEN
STRONG VERTICAL SHEAR...STORMS SHOULD QUICKLY ORGANIZE AND POSE A
THREAT OF HAIL AND LOCALLY STRONGER WINDS. FAST-MOVING LINE
SEGMENTS...AND PERHAPS A SUPERCELL OR TWO...MAY CONTINUE TO POSE A
SEVERE THREAT WHILE TRACKING EWD ACROSS CNTRL MT THROUGH THE
EVENING...AND PERHAPS AS FAR AS ERN MT OVERNIGHT.

..UPPER MS VALLEY....
WEAK HEIGHT FALLS TRAILING THE AMPLIFYING SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER
ONTARIO WILL JUST BRUSH THE UPPER MS VALLEY REGION WITH A COLD FRONT
FORECAST TO SETTLE SWD INTO WARM AND INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE AIR MASS
FROM SRN MN/IA EWD ACROSS SRN WI. WHILE LOW LEVEL AIR MASS WILL WARM
INTO THE 80S F...LIMITED BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION
WILL PROBABLY DETER GREATER DESTABILIZATION AND MAINTAIN CAPPING
UNTIL THE ARRIVAL OF THE FRONTAL CIRCULATION. STRONGEST SUPPORT FOR
TSTMS WILL BE FROM NRN IA ACROSS THE MS RIVER INTO WI THROUGH LATE
AFTERNOON AND INTO EARLY EVENING. DEEP LAYER SHEAR ACROSS THE
FRONTAL ZONE SHOULD BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR A FEW ROBUST
UPDRAFTS AND PERHAPS EVEN SUPERCELLS AND LARGE HAIL. GIVEN
RELATIVELY DRY BOUNDARY LAYER AIR MASS...STORMS SHOULD REMAIN
OUTFLOW-DOMINANT WITH SOME POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY STRONG WINDS.
BACKBUILDING PROPAGATION APPEARS POSSIBLE ACROSS IA WHERE STRONGER
INSTABILITY FEEDING THIS CONVECTION COULD MAINTAIN A THREAT OF AT
LEAST ISOLATED HAIL/WIND INTO THE EARLY EVENING PRIOR TO DECREASE IN
STORM INTENSITY WITH DIURNAL STABILIZATION.

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY
MONDAY NIGHT ACROSS PARTS OF SRN MN...NRN IA AND SWRN WI....

..THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING
ACROSS S TX....

..SYNOPSIS...
MAIN BAND OF WESTERLIES WILL EXTEND ALONG THE NRN TIER OF STATES AS
MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES ACROSS NEW ENGLAND THEN OFFSHORE MONDAY
NIGHT. MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL TRACK ACROSS THE NRN PLAINS
INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST LATE MONDAY MORNING INTO TUESDAY MORNING.
LOOKS LIKE THE GFS HANDLES THIS FEATURE A BIT BETTER AND SLOWER THAN
THE NAM. MEANWHILE...MID/UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER CENTRAL MEXICO AT
THIS TIME WILL BE OVER THE SRN PLAINS BY THIS PERIOD.

..PARTS OF MN/IA/WI AND NWRN IL...

GFS TAKES SURFACE LOW ASSOCIATED WITH MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE FROM
CENTRAL SD INTO NWRN IA MONDAY AFTERNOON. A WARM FRONT IS FORECAST
TO EXTEND FROM THE LOW EWD ALONG THE MN/IA BORDER THEN SEWD THRU
CENTRAL OH. A COLD FRONT WILL TRAIL THE LOW THRU THE NEB PANHANDLE
INTO NWRN WY. THE NAM IS A BIT MORE CONSERVATIVE WITH SURFACE DEW
POINTS THAN THE GFS...AND GIVEN THE PRESENCE OF THE MID/UPPER LEVEL
LOW OVER THE S CENTRAL U.S. LOOKS A BIT MORE REALISTIC. LOW LEVEL
JET OF 30-40 KT IS FORECAST TO EXTEND FROM NERN KS INTO CENTRAL IA
AND SWRN WI BY 21-00Z ENHANCING LOW LEVEL WARM ADVECTION AND LIFT IN
THE VICINITY OF THE WARM FRONT. THIS WILL BE COUPLED WITH 30-50 KT
WNWLY MID LEVEL FLOW CREATING DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 40-60 KT ACROSS
THE AREA. ANALYSIS OF NAM SOUNDINGS SHOW STRONG VERTICAL SHEAR
PROFILES ABOVE THE BOUNDARY LAYER ACROSS MN INTO CENTRAL WI...BUT
WEAKER PROFILES IN THE WARM SECTOR ACROSS CENTRAL IA.

AIR MASS ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO
BE MODERATELY UNSTABLE WITH BOTH MODELS PRODUCING MUCAPE OF
1000-2000 J/KG WITH LOW/MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AROUND 8C/KM. NAM
FORECASTS T/TD VALUES OF 88/65 AROUND KALO AT 22Z WITH A MLCAPE JUST
UNDER 2800 J/KG AND INDICATING LARGE HAIL WITH THE PROFILE.
THUS...EXPECT SCATTERED STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP JUST
AHEAD OF THE ADVANCING SHORTWAVE IN THE VICINITY OF THE WARM FRONT
JUST E OF THE LOW. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS LOOK TO BE THE
MAIN THREATS AT THIS TIME. BUT...GIVEN THE STRONG SHEAR PROFILES
AROUND NERN IA/SWRN WI...SOME ISOLATED TORNADOES COULD OCCUR.

..RIO GRANDE VALLEY AND S CENTRAL TX...

REMNANTS OF A DAY1 MCS SHOULD EFFECT MUCH OF THE ENVIRONMENT ACROSS
THIS REGION DURING THE PERIOD. BOTH MODELS STILL PROJECT A
MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIR MASS DURING THE AFTERNOON MOSTLY FROM
AVAILABLE HEATING. BOTH MODELS ARE GENERALLY IN THE 1000-1500 J/KG
RANGE FOR MUCAPE CORRESPONDING WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF AROUND 40
KT. THUS...LOOK FOR REGENERATION OF WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS WITH A FEW STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS ACROSS PARTS OF S CENTRAL TX.
