CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 218...
VALID 010441Z - 010545Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 218
CONTINUES.
AN ISOLATED SEVERE THREAT SHOULD CONTINUE ACROSS THE ERN PART OF WW
218 AND MAY AFFECT AREAS EAST OF THE WATCH LATER TONIGHT. LARGE HAIL
AND ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE WOULD LIKELY BE THE PRIMARY THREATS. A NEW
WW MAY BE NEEDED ACROSS PARTS OF NRN AND ERN OK.
THE CONVECTION ONGOING IN NRN OK IS LOCATED ALONG AN OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY AND IS ON THE NRN EDGE OF A GRADIENT OF MODERATE TO STRONG
INSTABILITY. THE SMALL CLUSTER OF STORMS IS LIKELY ASSOCIATED WITH A
WEAK DISTURBANCE EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND IS EXPECTED TO
RIDE ESEWD ALONG THIS GRADIENT FOR SEVERAL MORE HOURS. THE LATEST
PROFILER AT TULSA SHOWS ABOUT 35 KT OF VERTICAL SHEAR AND THE SHEAR
SHOULD BECOME SLIGHTLY MORE FAVORABLE AS THE LOW-LEVEL JET INCREASES
TONIGHT. THIS COMBINED WITH THE INSTABILITY SHOULD SUSTAIN THE
CLUSTER EWD ACROSS NERN OK. ALTHOUGH THE ACTIVITY MAY BE SLIGHTLY
ELEVATED...DOWNDRAFTS SHOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH FOR AN ISOLATED WIND
DAMAGE THREAT. HAIL WILL ALSO ACCOMPANY THE MORE INTENSE CELLS.
