Areas affected...portions of North Texas including the Big Country
area and the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 269...
Valid 112345Z - 120145Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 269
continues.
SUMMARY...Risk for severe weather -- mainly in the form of very
large hail -- continues across parts of the North Texas vicinity.
DISCUSSION...Severe-weather potential continues across the North
Texas vicinity, as a cluster of storms near and east/southeast of
Abilene continues producing hail locally, per WSR-88D/WDSS data.
Meanwhile, new storm development is now occurring eastward from
within the persistent CU field along the cold front, as far as the
DFW Metroplex. Large hail will be possible with these storms as
well -- most immediately associated with a splitting supercell over
Parker County.
Given mixed-layer CAPE in excess of 3000 to 4000 J/kg, and roughly
35 kt 0-6KM shear across this area, expect storms -- and hail
potential -- to continue over the next several hours.
